Square-Enix dropped a bombshell at today's Sony press conference at Tokyo Game Show. With the tenth anniversary of Final Fantasy X coming up, Square thought it would release an HD version of Final Fantasy X.
There are currently no more details. Will update asap!
I think it is because PS2 games are easier to edit into HD/remaster versions. This is the reason why Sony took away the PS3's backwards compatible ability, so they can make PS2 games into HD/remaster. I personally never played FF10, so I'll most likely pick this up.
There are already a lot of PS2 games being remade in HD:
- God of War 1, 2, and the PSP games - Devil May Cry 1-3 - Resident Evil 4 and Code Veronica - Sly Coooper - Metal Gear Solid 2-3 + Peacewalker.
FFX is my favorite in the series just pure turn based fun, likable characters, hair pulling mini game, customizable weapons, sphere grid system, etc. I sank a ridiculous amount of hours into this game as a kid.

You and me both! XD
True that the only thing that would top it is a huge FF7 remake IMO, and im not starting a "which is best" - the large majority of fans would love to see it.
After seeing advent children, crisis core and even dirge of cerberus, playing FF7 does slightly disappoint.
Wow nice but I don't have a PS3 so this doesn't really mean much (watching gameplay walkthroughs on Youtube FTW). I'll rob a bank to buy one if they remake FF7/8/9 in HD though.
Sick news! I've played pretty much every single one FF except the PS2 ones so really excited for FF X. Absolutely no idea if it's good or not but I'm just going to assume it is and be pumped
Wow has it really been 10 years? I really enjoyed FFX, I spent so many hours playing this game (too many actually, all the way into the early hours of the morning). I might give it another play through just for nostalgia I still remember that swimming game and always losing until I just manually moved the player myself to score points haha

I am with you! I can't understand the hate I read about directed at FFX some places.. I liked the turn based battles in FFX more than in any other turn based FF and summoning system wasn't just a prettier magic. Glad to see this made into HD!
If they add Japanese language tracks to US/EU releases I might consider getting it, they probably won't though... It's my favourite PS2/PS3 FF easily but theres only so and so many times I'm going to play through the same game. HD and original language track together would make it a bit different experience at least.
