Kotaku - While the Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster won’t be out in the West until March, it hit Japanese shelves last month. So join me as I dust off my old PS2 and compare just how much better Final Fantasy X looks on the PS3 with its new HD coat of paint.
The official Xbox Game Pass Twitter account announced that starting tomorrow Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster will be available on game pass.
The game that got me into the Final Fantasy series, I actually stopped playing FF7 halfway through disc one back in 1997.
Personally the battle in this one legit make me fall asleep because they're so "do it the right way or no way". As a kid I loved it but as I'm older and play so much JRPGs. Definitely needed to be the ATB and not this one. But the story was something I loved
The game is actually live now.
I already unlocked an achievement on it and can I say: The grainy ass PS2 graphics still ended up looking great in HD. Of course, not leaps and bounds better, with old textures in some spots and old game design etc but it holds up beautifully and I'm excited for my 2nd ever playthrough. It has not lost it's charm for me personally.
And the Music! So good.
I wanna get better at blitz ball this time around tho
Right now, you can get a number of high-profile RPG games on PC for steep discounts. The deals include The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Game of the Year Edition, Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster, and Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom!
Japanese state TV NHK collaborated with Square Enix to hold a massive survey among nearly 500,000 fans, and the results are very interesting.
Eh. Never could get into it for long.
12 is my personal favorite. Followed by 6, 9, and 7.
I agree. It is the best of the Final Fantasy games because it had the perfect balance of game play and exploration, coupled with excellent graphics for its time, an amazing story and phenomenal music. The sphere grid was simple, innovative and engaging and the side quests were fun and challenging. Its definitely my favorite.
My top FF:
It's difficult to decide between FF7 and FF6, but I'm leaning more towards FF7. Then FF6 is a very close 2nd, followed by FF4. FF4 got me hooked on the RPG genre. The story, character development, and music got me hooked. Before FF4, I never cared for video game characters and their fate in a game.
The best example of how much the graphics improved is at the end when Yuna fondle Valefor's head look her hand it's a blurry block of pixels & check how her hand is at the PS3 version u can clearly see her fingers & the ring she wear nothing of that was visible at the PS2 version :P
It could be more awesome if they will remake this game completely not just an HD retouch. :p
Square enix should of put dynamic lighting and self shadows at least.
Still some of the best cgi cutscenes ever.
Yay, now I can see the awful poor outdated graphics up close. XD
Well, it's still only 40$, perfect for fans of FFX or newcomers who hasn't played it.
