FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFuck yeah. 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! | ||

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. and probably more that I can't think of. | ||

After seeing advent children, crisis core and even dirge of cerberus, playing FF7 does slightly disappoint. | ||

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! Now I just want my FFXIII Versus to be released | ||

Yeah.. 10 years and only 2 real FF games came out FFXII, I didn't like the story or the characters that much, and the combat system felt half finished.. Would have liked to try to combat system in the version 2 of FFXII that was Japan only :p I have always thought that a Dragon Age kind of combat system, with classes, in FFXII could have been absolutely marvellous! FFXIII I actually thought better than FFXII, just far to little side missions and quest.. And the monster hunt in FFXII, Missions in FXIII I didn't like, rather have more hidden side missions! | ||

This man speaks the truth Hell i ll even buy ANOTHER ps3(yes i have one) if they remake 6 and 7 (my two favourite, followed closely by X).. Theres that little thing about 8's Draw system that always give me the feeling that it could have been improved.. I mean Junctioning and spamming Limit Break (or have the comp spam it for u in case of Rinoa) is all cool, but having to draw 100 of all magics, especially early game when u draw 0-2 Esunas per turn? >.< man that was (slightly) tedious, and unnecessarily so. | ||

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 =/. | ||

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. | ||

As the post above me says, I wouldn't be surprised that FF7 would be too difficult. Every single "image" that was in the background would take a while to remodel in 3D, and there are so many of them. FFX didn't even have a proper "world map". Anyway, great news, I may get a PS3 and a HD TV for it. | ||

However it's "assumed" they will port the "International" version (one with dark aeons and both English and Japanese voices?). Also if this does successfully (in terms of sales) they may also port over FF10-2 International, and FF12 International. Of course all speculation for now. They're also porting FFXI to the Vita if anyone still plays >.>. | ||

But I still find it an odd choice for a HD remake. 6 through 9 could also all use it more IMO. But I guess it's easier to remake a PS2 game compared to a PS1 or SNES game. | ||

The worst thing is when you ignored blitzball all game then realised at the end you needed to play them for wakkas overdrives/celestial weapons. Having to play all those games back to back then get into enough fights (100s) to start new leagues was just horrible. On my second playthrough i started straight away and played a few games now and them as i went on, much more manageable. I just turned every game into a record score attempt. I think my best was 16-0 or something like that. | ||

I played both of the games and I didn't particularly enjoy either of them, although I thought FFX's sphere grid system was very unique and FFVII had a great setting) There are a ton of fans for both games though so I guess this move makes sense for SE. Wish they remade FFIX though... :\ I really liked that game. A IX's fan? well i too loved it, it was a nice attempt to bring back the classic FF gameplay, and not a shabby one either i liked both the art and the story.As far as story goes though, i personally feel that X has the best story-telling all around (not just FF, among all the RPGs i have played, aka quite a few).. Add to that the stunning graphics (compared to those that were 10 years ago), and you have a nice game for most people.. I find the Sphere Grid relatively boring, especially when you compare it with Materia or Junction or even the Relic system of VI. Mastering the Sphere Grid only means improved stats, for the most part.. You hit harder, faster, and take less damage.. This is where VII shine.. Lets forget the (very interesting) story for a moment, the Materia system imho was (one of) the best Character Customisation system Square has ever come up with.. Get hit once? Slap him back 16 times... Die? Ressurect your whole party, and throw a couple of Knights of The Round into his face as well, just for lulz.. Tired of grinding? Sneak Attack + KotR + MP Drain and you can grind indefinitely while watching TV or eating dinner, or both.. Im sure there are wayyy a lot more things u can do with Materias, just listing a few off the top of my head. VI is wonderful as well, but nobody dissed 6 yet, so i wont go there | ||

Seriously remake a game that needs it like FFVII (original had fail translation and the gfx are way more dated), or better yet, Xenogears (one can dream). On a related note, Lulu in HD is a nice idea. | ||

Can only hope like hell they rework the voice acting... Tidus made me want to strangle a puppy... although, to be fair, nothing is worse than Vanille in XIII. They really need to re-work FFVII. | ||

I guess because it's easier to remake X because of its already 'modern' look to the game. They'd just need to change the rendering to HD. | ||

I know my most memorable part in FFX was getting to the part of the game that was the same as the opening game scene. I remember just gazing listening to the music and thinking "wow, this was beautifully done." The best "wow" moment for me in the FF franchise (besides those many plot twists in FFVII) was when you step out into the world view in FFVII for the first time. It was like OMG WTF THERE'S A BIG ASS WORLD OUT HERE when all you've known for all that time until then was the Mako Reactors. Although not as epic as a reaction, when I first got into the world of ruin on FFVI and lost my entire party I was like omg wtf a new world? hahaha. | ||

It'll be a good excuse for fans of X to play it again and be happy that Square is doing this at all (I am, personally), but - and I hate to be cliche - I think VII would have been better (or 8 or 9, tbh any of the 3 PSX games). | ||

For example: My first play through I didn't realize you could summon Shiva in order to do 9999 dmg against Anima, essentially making that boss fight possible. Instead I resorted to grinding to get past it without summoning Shiva . | ||

When I played it (blind) I was not able to find any of the celestial weapons; consequently none of my characters broke the 9999 limit. Looking at the guides in retrospect, there was no way I could have broken it... the process is too complicated to be figured out naturally. My only saving grace was to be able to get the Omega Temple and getting some Teleporting Spheres and some Key Spheres (Level3/4 I think) from the mobs in that part. I beat the game after I managed to teleport Tidus to Auron's section and giving Lulu Doublecast + Ultima. However, I do admit when playing FF blind, whether or not the game is "easy" or not depends on luck a lot. Typically, finding 1-2 "ultimate" weapons or skills make the game considerably easier. | ||

If people can get to the final boss without using the Sphere Grid, summons, and overdrives (NSGNSNO playthrough), pretty sure you don't need to grind for an eternity. Unless you're referring to the Dark Aeons, and I don't think side quests should count on that category (just my opinion though) | ||

Yeah, that step into the big world made me sad with FF7, i had previously told my sister: There are 7 (i think ? been a while) reactors. disk 1 is 1-3 disk 2 4-6 and disk 3 is 7-shinra HQ. Being like 7 and thinking i was a bad-ass. She rofled at me :-( Awesome moment none the less. FFX is my 2nd favourite FF if im honest, im a big fan of the story line, i think it was extremely well done, very touching. FF7 is my ultimate favourite. I honestly cannot wait for this remake it will be so epic :D My head somewhat stops me from playing through 6+8 (6, the graphics and slow based play. I know i know im a spoilt next-gen brat now >.>) and 8 the battle system is also extremely fucking shite, although i find the story line to be compelling ( I cannot sit there spamming the summons all day ). I should give these two games another chance 6 i havent really made it through the opening plot and with 8 ive just reached a 2nd SEED HQ. But time is hard to come by considering work / course + various other games taking my attention (the latest being mass effect 2) | ||

Thats so bullshit... it's just as good as the FF series. Though I always found it weird why I liked FFX so much when I didn't like Yuna, Tidus or Rikku for the most part as individual characters. Maybe they were all fleshed out nice and the plotline was very good. Hm. Gotta play it again to see. | ||

But yes, recreating FFVII with today's technology would be a rather large investment, and if Square Enix's current history of milking their franchises with every title they can slap the name onto is any indication, they care about their fans quite a bit less than they would have you think. | ||

Who do you trust more? One of the most core produce team, worked from the very begining of square, Kitase Yoshinori or 2nd CEO in Square and also the producer of FFXIII Shinji Hashimoto a HD remake probably would come sooner than a complete remake, but I would love to have a complete remake though | ||

They just picked it because it was the easiest I guess. I'd love to see an all-new 3D FF4 or FF6. Sick of companies repackaging games where 90% of the content is the same and charging full price (*cough Capcom cough*). It's just going to get worse as time goes on, they spend their time on this stuff instead of making quality new releases. X-2, I can agree with you on, in terms of maybe not being needed for the Series of FF's. However, playing through it wasn't all bad. Once you get through the aspects of it being essentially a dress-up game where the female main characters "change clothes" throughout the game to enable different jobs through FF series like theif, gunner, mage etc.. Then just adding in the accessories and leveling up abilities and some extras then it wasn't TOO much different from other FF's, but definatley an acquired taste and for true fans of FF's types. The music to it, though, was terrible compared to FFX. Where I can't agree w/ u on, is that FFX was one "of the worst" in the series. Thats obsurd. Besides 7, 10 is prolly the next best i've ever played. The story was absolutely one of a kind, I thought, with tremendous ups n downs and the ending was surprising. Granted, all aspects of FFX weren't amazing. Some of the voice acting that correlated to the facial expressions of the chracters didn't sync up perfectly, voice acting itself was kinda dry at times but it was the 1st of the series to bring about voice acting at all - which was a milestone and has been improved upon through each title. The battle system, although somewhat old (going back to the turn-based system) was still exciting and new with the ability to tag-out to other members, rather than having a set 3 or 4 characters to use, only.. Also adding in the new Aeon ability to have the summons as playable characters rather than just a one-time use animation, an aspect that they have now still employed in other FF's like 12 + 13. The music and scenery about it too, was really well done. They really maxed out the PS2 capabilities even when it was the 1st title to come out on that platform. So I for one, am fully excited to see, really any FF remade with the graphics of the PS3. | ||

The difference between PS2 and PS3 graphics is so minor that they can't even call it a reworking, it's just a remastering. They take all the same models and render some new textures and shadows, boom! $60 price tag. Are you really going to pay $60 for the exact same game with a one-generation difference in graphics? | ||

Tried to replay it last year and couldn't get past the opening 15 minutes without turning it off :S It's a shame, because there were some beautiful scenes and great moments. If the remake lets you turn voice acting off (or better yet gets some half-decent English voice actors) I'd probably play it. About the earlier Final Fantasy's, I think 9 actually still stands up. 6, 7 and 8 would all be great though - let a new generation see what all the fuss is about. | ||
