"Final Fantasy X-2, on the other hand, suffered somewhat. The character models of the three main ladies looked nice enough; this is good, since so much of the draw is the battle system, which has the ladies changing outfits in mid fight. Every enemy and NPC looked completely out of place against these beautifully detailed heroines, though. It was a tour or Jaggy Central Park, and Yuna was my guide." -GR at TGS
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

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 grew up on the series (played every single one of them when they were new).
6 is easily my favorite, followed by 14, then 11, then 12 and so on down the list.
There isn't a single one I haven't loved in some way. But 8, and then 2 are at the bottom of my list.
I really don't inputs which one is my personal favorite because there are so many, but I know for a fact it's not 10,13 and 15..
Ff12, despite cheesy characters, was a great game and the freedom of movement really helped. The ps1 episodes come first, including the ff5 ff6 remasters.
I later on played ff1 remaster on psp and I loved it!! Så yeah, hard top pick one.
Not true. XII, IX, and VI are my favorites as well but I still love some of the others, just not as much.
FF7 is by far my favorite FF game, great times and great memories.. then comes
FF8, FF6, FFX, FF12 and finally FF9.
12 doesn't feel like a FF game to me, but it's definitely a favourite rpg of mine.
I put a metric ton of time in on 12 but I couldn't tell you what the story was about. I spent most of my time hunting bounties. By the time I finished the game I had no clue what was going on.
haha see, thats what i mean. theres, usually but not all the time, a pattern to final fantasy fans xD
i for one loath 12. i have no idea what the story was about, dont know any name for any city and only find Fran and Balthier great.
i love love love 7. dont like 2 at all. 6 and 9 are good but id rather play anything else tbh. 14 is good also but im no MMO person so i never got beyond the 3rd quest lol.
no hate, but ff fans are somewat predictable, based off on what they like xD in most cases.
Final Fantasy V and XIV got better than FFVIII
Lightning, Orshvan Greystone and Noctis got a better ranking than Squall
Liberi Fatali didn't even make the music list...
Damn, I didn't think people still hated FFVIII...how sad.
3 and 9 are my favorite. 12, 10, 8, 7, and 5 aren't bad either
I don't think I've played 6. I probably should sometime. I know I'd rather play an original not any of the remake versions.
yes!
I love Final Fantasy 12. My favorite as well. Then followed by 9, 6, 7,14 and the others I like, but I can't quite put in a list.
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.
Have you tried 9? It hearkens back to the earlier games, including 6. That's my favorite. Then 10.
Instead we got a Sailor Moon style sequel to revive Tidus, and a canon comic that shits all over him in the worst way possible taking place immediately after that.
But yes, following Braska, Auron, and Jecht in a prequel would have been awesome!
Sad to hear x-2 is not shaping up as nice a x
fail HD remaster.. if you cant make both games look equally as nice then just stop or delayed the damn till next year.. Yuna Rikku Paine deserve it -_-
I'm one of the few who actually enjoyed X2 (after getting past the overly fluffy exterior, I found an awesome battle system inside).
I'm disappointed to hear about the lack of attention to it, but I also wouldn't want the collection delayed any more because of it. I'm just way to anxious to replay these games again!
I'm calling BS on this. FFX and FFX-2 use almost 95% of the same assets--the same 3D models for NPCs, enemies, and world objects; the same textures; the same animation data; etc., etc. There's absolutely no reason the GAMEPLAY of the two games shouldn't look identical.
Also, baggies usually only result when a game isn't played at native resolution, and can be fixed easily enough. If these issues were present' it's likely--considering the games still have three more months of development to go through--that work on FFX-2 simply isn't as far along as FFX (which makes logical sense) and that the final effects (aliasing filters, etc.) have not yet been applied.
Which is a conclusion that anyone with half a brain would very naturally arrive at BEFORE writing a BS article.
Riku. All I need.
