Blitzball was one of the worst mini games of all time.The gameplay was a travesty as was the AI.
Farming the crest or whatever for wakkas weapon was the most painfull process right behind getting "King of the jump rope" in FF9 for me.

The most annoying thing about FFX was farming 10 Tomberrys from that one cave imo, I had about 1 Tomberry for every 3 hours in that goddamn cave but you needed them to finish the monster farm

Would have much prefered 7-8 remakes to be honest. Saying that this is relatively low maintence for them. All they have to do is bump up the resoloution and textures. Voice actings already done.

Here's the real issue with remaking 7. They wouldn't just upres it... they'd likely make it almost from scratch, minus story/arcs.

With this, they could remodel and keep a lot of the same designs that they had before. It's not a multi-year, multimillion dollar effort. It's more of a small team effort that they split off while they're doing versus.

However, I do agree with the sentiment, I think there's a market out there for a multi-year FF7 remaking effort =/.

If you guys like PS2 games, I recommend you look into PS2 emulation. It's perfectly legal if you own a PS2 and the game you're emualting. Keep in mind that you need a good PC for it to be enjoyable else, you'll encounter lag issues.

Here's some FFX if you want to take a look at how it looks emulated:

Fuck yes! I can't wait for this. I would have rather seen a FF7 remake, but this is my definite second choice.

Also, if they're gonna do this, I think it'll make them more likely to do a FF7 remake in the future. Yes, FFX will take less work, but I think if it's successful it will give them lots of incentive to do FF7.

been 10 years since i spent so much hours on FFX to unlock Nemesis and Penance? Can't believe that! Collecting those Dark Matters were a bitch but i did love the Blitzball Games. Jecht Shots ftw!

Well I love FF10 but FF8 is my favorite and I'd love to buy a remake of this one. Good initiative though, it will be a treat for people who missed it the first time.

Talking about a remake of FF7, then I would like to see them impement some of the scenes that they had to cut in the original.

A scene intended to imply her and Cloud having sex was proposed by Masato Kato, one of the event planners, but was replaced with a toned down version by Kitase in which a risqué line is followed by a fade to black.

I spent hundreds of hours on FFX all those years ago, no time now to do it again unfortunately but I will be trying to find the FMVs and getting some good desktop backgrounds out of this.

Excellent news

Are they doing this with the international version but with dual audio this time? Or do people have to edit and make their own isos out of it...? There is a ps2 version ( not official one ) with a non english audio and english text instead of what they give you.

Strange choice of a remake. I would have figured they'd make a shitload more by remaking VII. Although as someone else pointed out, it would take a lot more work to do.
