Let's just assume that Final Fantasy X HD sells well. It seems highly unlikely that it won't. And if that happens, will it be a big enough wake-up call?
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.
Well...supposedly SE realizes their RPGs aren't so great according to some story I read a few days ago.
I understand that they want to innovate the series, but they're trying to innovate in all of the wrong ways. Rather than try to lure more fans to expand the fanbase, they're luring more fans, while driving the current fans away.
Come round to what? Not to insult the game, but FF10 is really where Square started going off track. The overworld disappeared and a blitzball became as lethal yet more useful than a sword. And then there were the overboard plot contrivances.
If SE is successful by porting HD remakes will it stop them from being retards and create fresh IPs or something good? No, it will probably have them create more HD remakes. Yes, I want some nostalgia (Really want an HD polished Vita version of Chrono Trigger) but SE needs to really fail in order to learn and fix themselves.
SquareEnix as a lot of potential to make great games still today but for some reason only handhelds got their best work these last 5 years or so.
They better start not messing around any longer and give us the great rpg´s we want to dive in.
maybe we'll get a final fantasy xii hd remake. I find myself enjoying handheld games more than console games lately, but the lack of ad hoc multiplayer for many vita titles is severely disappointing. FIFA 13 doesn't support it and it has broken online. I can't even finish an online game without being disconnected. little big planet would have been more enjoyable if I could play with 4 friends in the same room. a xii remake with dragon quest 9 like multiplayer where everyone controls a character would be awesome instead of the unreliable gambit system.
