Final Fantasy X to Get HD Remake

My favorite FF game, and I sold my damn ps3. Looks like I'll be getting a Vita!

Quote:

Following the announce of Final Fantasy X HD, made by Square Enix at recent Tokyo Games Show'11, in conditions of strong hunger for additional details and information regarding this project, fresh rumors appeared, covering the questions of possible new features of remake and its release date. And if they are not just rumors — Final Fantasy X HD can be not just remastered in HD version of this highly successful PlayStation 2 game, but a real remake.

So, one Spain language blog about PlayStation — PSTime — published some information about FFX HD, which is claimed to be received "from sources close to developers". Reliability of such sources, of course, is an open question, because there is no confirmation from another sources, but still it looks pretty real and definitely worth to be at least considered as possible reality.

Accordingly to this rumors, Final Fantasy X HD remake will be created using Final Fantasy XIII game engine, which also will be adapted to PS Vita. Another unconfirmed details regarding FFX remake development includes following items:

•Re-created for new engine characters, aeons and some stage elements.
•Cut scenes and FMV will be enhanced with some "filter" of FFXIII engine — probably, it's some kind of AA-filtering and smoothing.
•Magic, special effects and lightning will be re-created using new engine called "Luminous".
•Blitzball game will take little changes.
•FFX HD may have additional network features ( in the light of previous item — I can predict that game will receive multiplayer for Blitzball game in some form, and maybe something else ).
•Release Date — in 2012 fiscal year ( i.e. before 31 March, 2013 ). At the moment it's impossible to concretize release date, but I personally can expect FFX HD to be released in Japan somewhere in Summer / Autumn of 2012. Actual release date highly depends on scale of planned new features ( how many resources required to implement all of them ) and how long FFX HD is in development stage for now. But, if take into account that there is no any pictures of game or official details — highly possible that FFX HD development started not very long ago.

Yeah, they announced it end of last year and I was instantly gutted. Hated X and I'm really hoping they don't slow down the progress of the 3D handheld FF remakes from the NES/SNES. They were brilliant.

I loved X, but hated VII (I believe VII is the most overrated game of the series...maybe even most overrated game of all)

I didn't really get into the series until X. I had played VII, but didn't like it. I played Final Fantasy on NES, well actually I downloaded it on Wii. I liked it pretty well. Probably gonna get the rest on Amazon or something on SNES since I still have that console.

Yea, if I was Wakka, and I woke up to that, I'd kill myself too. Kimhari must've just said fuck it and bounced.

How's that new Final Fantasy looking? Will probably get it eventually as I didn't mind XIII too much and it involves time travel apparently.

I got it and haven't actually played it yet. lol. Been too distracted with life. haha.

I think Checkpoint covered it best.

It's apparently better, but not in any way I would enjoy as the battle system is basically auto-pilot and the voice actors are still how I would imagine how Clox would talk outloud.

There's a demo on XBL marketplace though now you have Live and all.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way.

Pat sums up my feelings on FFVII quite nicely.

He has large articles on every Final Fantasy. Great reads.

Also, Final Fantasy XIII-3 is happening.

Oh, but we're not finished yet. Before we continue, a few things: fuck Advent Children. Fuck Before Crisis. Fuck Dirge of Cerberus. Fuck Kingdom Hearts II (just for good measure). Fuck that cockteasing PS3 hardware demo that's got the fans clamoring for a full remake. Fuck lunatic Sephiroth fanboys. Fuck lunatic Sephiroth fangirls.

Wow, he really hates Fangerl.

Checkpoint is freaking awesome. And pretty much anything else LRR does.

"Remastering" meaning "running through the upscaler".

You can do this now on a decent PC vis PCSX2.

Who dosn't want to see Blitxball upscaled?
