Final Fantasy X PS3 Remake Might Look Like This

TQ author writes: When Final Fantasy X comes the PS3 as an HD remake, we’re hoping that it’s a complete remake running the FFXIII engine like it has been rumored, however, if that doesn’t happened, I think we’ll be OK with the standard PS3 HD remake after looking at the possibilities.

[RedDead]

Hope for FFXIII engine too, or improvements like Versus

[crxss]

at this point i'm still hoping for a full blown remake instead of an HD version. then they should do 7, 8, and 9. or at least one other one for the current gen consoles

[dericb11]

Start with 6 first. Once you figure out where Terra came from you began to see why people say its a great game. Please dont spoil it. I think a person should play the game to see why its great.

[slayorofgods]

I'm excited about a FFX hd remake, it is one of the best in the FF series. But one problem I have is if this will postpone FFvs13 even more.

Full blown remakes are good and all but they will also stall future releases of this series.... What I really want is FF15 to focus on what has made this series so good, returning to their roots with a whole new game.

[iamtehpwn]

You guys gotta be reasonable. You want them to remake 6, 7, 8 and 9 in full HD for current gen consoles? A remake is fine every now and then, but I want to Square Enix to make new Final Fantasy's that were as good as though, not just go back to the past.

[Trebius]

Theyre so blind to what their fans want ... its easy to tell they just want to stick to doing as little work as possible to gain a buck instead of doing some real work and trying to shine and hitting a home run.

Square ... oh how the mighty have fallen...

[slayorofgods]

Trebius, I wouldn't exactly call them lazy. FF13 actually has some of the best cgi this generation. The problem is they took too big of a chance changing things up that they forgot what made the series so good.

In all actuality FF13 is a good game. It reminds me of FF12; A game that you really hate at first because of how different it is, but in time it grows on you.

[DarkZane]

It was already confirmed very recently it was a remake with the ff13 engine and it was in early stage of development.

Also, they can't remake 1 to 9. Those had towns, npcs, a worldmap and an airship and they were huge worlds.

The reason they're remaking 10 is because it's very similar to 13 since 10 is also very much a long corridor. Only difference is that it also have towns and npcs, but no worldmap.

[smashman98]

Never confirmed to have xiii engine
Its been confirmed that theyr were implementing new shaders and other things for slight graphical improvement

Its also been confirmed that they were going to change some things in the game to enhance the experience

But never did they say it was gonna use the xiii engine

[sirdrake]

it wasn't confirmed to be using the xiii engine but it is a going rumor.

[Tanir]

anyone else notice something that everyone forgot about old ff games and turn based rpgs from this video????
AUTOATTACK!!!!!! for every IDIOT who complained, this video serves as proof to the people who forgot the games were always auto attack unless it was a boss, same for ff13.......doesnt mean ff13 was good, just sayin, hate people who called it out on that yet forgot about all jrpgs being guilty of that

[Megaman_nerd]

it's different dude, this guy has ultimate weapons and his level is maxed out. In other words, he had to do sidequests and a lot of backtracking to achieve that while in FFXIII there is none of that. Even Yuna is doing 99999 damage with simple attacks and the enemy doesn't die, which mean that in a normal play-through you would need to use magic and stuff instead of simply attacking for 99999 damage to beat it.

Next time, use common sense please.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

There's a lot more than auto pilot that people were upset with.

[Blaze929]

why would a REMAKE look anything like those possible images? It's supposed to be a remake, not a remaster. I wish they would release it looking like that...

[DonaldBeck]

looks so good!

[Agent_hitman]

So it is a Remake not just HD remaster!.. Good to know

[Eamon]

Actually as far as we know, it's a bit of both.

A HD port but with new graphical upgrades. I honestly doubt it will be a full HD remake.

Then again, Final Fantasy X doesn't even need a HD remake. It already looks good. You can play it sharper and clearer in HD and with advanced shaders, lighting and without jaggy edges on PCSX2.

[NukaCola]

It's an advance remaster. Cutscene polished with the new Crystal Engine. Added effects to make battle more vibrant and intence. Remaster sound and music. Some sort of MP/Co-Op(Maybe Blitzball or a PSN/Vita cross play downloadable deal). I think I read there will be some added stuff and hopefully this will be downloadable game share so I can get it on PS3 and play it on Vita. I bet SE would sell this game seperate on both but who knows.

WHO IS WONDERING if the game will come with a bonus section of content like 'making of' vids or a Kingdom Hearts III or FFVIIHD trailer? LoL I doubt it too...lol

[galmi]

kinda looks better in ma memories

[Unlimax]

Will sure it will be much better because the person who post those screenshots with gameplay is using PCSX2 With High Def system requirements that supports DirectX 10~11 even with that it looks slower .. Who knows maybe Square will do better than that !

[tarbis]

If Squeenix is really gonna use the FFXIII engine then it'll look much better than that. *fingers crossed*

[WhyWai_close]

i would like an engine upgrade too... but dont think it's the case...

[rataranian]

"we’re hoping that it’s a complete remake running the FFXIII engine"

...Who's we?

[helghast102]

You got a problem with the XIII engine?

[sxbrady]

Graphics no... gameplay...... ya I do!

[Fishy Fingers]

I'd prefer them to actually finish the "new" games they've had in development limbo for years, rather than releasing the same game with a visual upgrade. No matter how good.

Graphics are nice and all, but they're not going to keep me interested when I'm just repeating the same game for 50 hours.

[zu4G]

probably better than that, the news already said that the game is in Early in development for Psvita and PS3, so i guess it's probably a total remake all the way

[zu4G]

and we could wait for another years for the game to be released just like ffversus13

[DragonKnight]

I'm sorry but I doubt I'd like this. Upscaled PS2 graphics doesn't look so good in my opinion. It just looks odd to me. Really hope that SE can do better than this.

[Rage_S90]

Ico in HD looks better then most early gen xbox games.

[kevnb]

its not upscaled, its rendered at higher res. But all the assets and animation etc... stay the same.

[Edito]

Im sou happy with this remake cause FF X is one of the games of my life FF X was a game changer for me and one of the best experiences of my life its strong enough to make me forget the Square Enix from this gen...

[Superted2007]

It actually looks pretty damn good relatively speaking.
I have played the whole game through recently on PCSX2 with 1080p and it's an enjoyable ride!

[BDSE]

This is one game that NEEDS new voice actors. Looking forward to it though, I had a blast when it first game out.

Apart from THAT scene.... you know the one I'm talking about.

[Blastoise]

"HA-HA-HA-HA-HA" scene?

[aaron5829]

can't wait to cry like a little girl again...

[Burning_Finger]

"Square Enix's Yoshinori Kitase revealed that the Final Fantasy X HD Remake for PS3 and PS Vita is in early development. Rumors from the media also stated that remake will not be a simple HD Remaster version, instead the game run on the FFXIII game engine, all characters, scenes and summon aeons will be redrawn, and special effects in magic and other scenes will make use of the Luminous Engine, the Blitz Ball mini game will have some improvements; and the game will have Network support."

A Complete Remake of FFX according to developer itself.

[CanadianTurtle]

Wow, out of all the games, they choose 10?

[Jihaad_cpt]

whats wrong with X?

[Eamon]

Nothing wrong with 10. It's just that there are other Final Fantasy games that are more needing of a remake like FF6 and FF7.

And I doubt this will be a complete remake.

[TheRichterBelmont]

Would have preferred 6 or 7 first, then 10. Wouldn't mind a FFtactics HD too.

[Jihaad_cpt]

well I for one love X and would prefer X over VII. That is all.

[D3mons0ul]

Aaaaand, you're in the minority

Sadly this time majority rule doesn't matter and you are getting what you wanted.

Damn I remember the world operating under a much different set of rules back in the day.

[PCE]

This is all Square-Enix has to offer...remakes of the same tired old games everyone has played. They have proven themselves they just can't make a new good game anymore and rely on nostalgia to stay in business. Sad.

[Hicken]

You wanna know the irony in what you're stating?

Everybody who's complaining is saying, "Why don't they just go back to their roots and make a game like the old ones?"

You're saying that Square-Enix only relies on nostalgia these days (ignoring that they actually HAVE released quality titles, likely because you take the stance that so many other detractors do: handhelds don't count), but you ignore that that seems to be the only thing fans want these days, too.

[PCE]

What irony? There's a difference between sticking to what made the series great (with improvements of course) and just rehashing the same tired old game with the same story, characters, and game world we've all know. The latter is just cashing in on nostalgia, and the fact FF fans remember how much fun they've had on their previous games in contrast to the garbage that have been coming out of the Square-Enix hype machine within this entire generation of console gaming. For example, how many times have Square-Enix rehashed a SNES game, FFIV, within the past 5 years alone?

And their recent game, FFXIII, many fans were disappointed, and for good reason. Same applies to FFXII. And FFXIII. And FFXIV. Because of that, I give no benefit of the doubt for FFvXIII.

[LoLZoRz]

this is just HD footage of the game, they said they're remaking it with the new engine.

/Cpt. Obvious

[phatfreddy1978]

Remake FF6 God damn it!!!!!!!!!
Nevermind I would rather remember it for the beauty it was in the 16 bit era.They may F**K it up.

[Fishermenofwar]

I just want to see ANIMA in HD..EPIC PWNAGE!!!

[PickAShoe]

that thing was a BEAST! :D

[Kos-Mos]

Please god no, I don`t want to play any more of the blitzball.

[SuperStrokey1123]

Still think 6 would be a better game to remake, however im sure it would cost way more as well...

[D3mons0ul]

Still think VII would be a better game to remake, however im sure it would cost way more as well...

[kevnb]

i think it will just be rendered at higher res, like 99% of "remakes".

[StitchJones]

It will end up being a quick cash in by Square-ENIX. As it is it takes them too long to work on games, this XIII-2 is only a band-aid to try to fix the lameness of XIII.

[tigertron]

I just can't believe this classic is 10 years old. Where has the time gone? 0.o

[koehler83]

People who keep spouting the phrase "full remake" are just setting themselves up for a massive disappointment.

Massive.

This is Square Enix showing up late to the HD collection party...with a single game.

[BDSE]

Tomb Raider HD collection says hello.

[bobrea]

I think it's time to play through FFX again. I love that game so much.

Also, did I just see Yuna do 9999 melee damage?

[Kennytaur]

I think SE should focus on making a new FF with similarities to the old school games in terms of setting. Basically FF XIV Offline. Fully remaking a game like VI or VII would take almost as long as making a new game anyways and it would probably not live up to the fans expectations anyway.

[koehler83]

Unfortunately, without Sakaguchi at the helm, the series is probably doomed to wallow in mediocrity.

Final Fantasy is defined by the idioms that characterize Sakaguchi himself. Not to mention his ability to direct his former dream team, something Tanaka was clearly unable to do with Uematsu in FFXIV, for instance or really anyone at SE has been able to do with Tetsuya Nomura.

As an FF Superfan, I would suggest:
A) Play the classics. They'll always be classics.
B) Enjoy present/future FF games as quirky JRPG fare, separate from its pedigree. They don't deserve to be on the same level, so enjoy them on another one.
C) Support Mystwalker wherever possible.

[-Gespenst-]

The problem for me is that Mistwalker don't develop for the PS3. I'm not buying a 360 just for Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon, and I'm not buying a wii just for the Last Story.

I do have a DS though so I'll be playing ASH whenever a decent translation surfaces.

Still though, it annoys me that they only make exclusives.

[Goeres]

So I will have FF 1,4,6,7,8,9 and 10 on my PSV without having to switch discs? Sounds amazing!

[koehler83]

Not until Vita supports classics (which I hope will be soon.)

[Hyperbomb69]

for the love of all that is good please DO NOT MAKE FFX LIKE FFXIII!!!! I dont want to sit there and press one button to end a match! I'll be happy with a complete copy paste game with prettier graphics and trophies!

[-Gespenst-]

I'm going to play it again no matter what it looks like. It's been way too long.

[ShinFuYux]

Didn't Square Enix buy the rights to use Unreal Engine a few months ago?

What does that tell us?

Unreal Engine on FFX?

[Run_bare]

I hope not, I want them to remake them, not HD them.

[Hozi]

We demand an entire remake Square!!! I mean in terms of graphics!

and if its not too much to ask I want more side missions...more Boss battles and maybe an extra Aeon?

[gr33nFIEND]

And yet another reason I'm going to be broke

[IWentBrokeForGaming]

our games will look and play like that next gen...
