Quick Look: Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster

Wow, Brad dropping heavy spoilers as per usual.

Brad is really throwing out spoilers in this QL, so if you haven't played before don't watch this.

Yeah wtf, Brad really can't decide whether to say "Don't spoil too much" or repeatedly drop crucial spoilers in this.

Man, I hated so much that you could rename Tidus, so no one ever called him by his name and had to use awkward work around's.

STOP SAYING "Final Fantasy Ex" and "Ex - Two" I'M LOSING MY MIND OVER HERE

Oh God, it hurts.

@rorie: As being one of those simpletons how hadn't played it but had planned to, I wish I read this comment first. :(

I guess I am stupid work watching this and expecting no major spoilers. Especially, with Brad on the couch.

Wow these games look bad...
Not talking about the graphics either...
I suppose they don't work well in video format when you're not playing it yourself.

It's X as in a roman numeral, damn it! That aside, spoilers for anyone who's gonna watch. That also aside, I have some fond memories of X. It had a good story to work with but sometimes got overshadowed by poor execution (e.g. the VO/translation - HA HA HA HA HA HA HA). The only thing about X-2 that I like was Lulu and Wakka getting married. Adorable.

Man, those flat faces/flaces are really nostalgic! Flaces.

FF X was one of the best. Best battle system in a FF, great music (not just from Uematsu), and a surprisingly dark, pseudo-philosophical story. Never understood the "too linear" argument as the only thing it did was take away a world map that you walk on. There were sidequests and fun stuff to do other than the story abound (I spent dozens of hours playing Blitzball alone). In my experience, people that hate on this game are usually of the "the last good FF was VI" variety.

Oh man, X-2 looks super stupid...I just might have to get this.

Still really want a FFX prequel where you play as Braska, Auron and Jecht on Braska's pilgrimage and learn their whole story in full detail rather than just short video sphere's

Seeing Jecht becoming he final aeon and ultimately becoming Sin would be fantastic

@ste89: I wouldn't be surprised if there are promotional deals in the future to purchase the vita/ps3 together.

I remember being slightly disappointed by FFX at the time it came out. When I look back on it these days though I have some of the same nostalgia for it as the earlier games in the series. So many dope cuts on that soundtrack too.

Wow the quality looks amazing!! I never played FF games but I really liked Paine, and Riku and Yuna also.

I've always toyed with the idea of going back and playing X-2 since I enjoyed X as much as I did. Now, I think this quick look was just about enough X-2 for me..

X-2 is the best.

4 and 9 are the best, 8, 10 and 12 are equally the worst, the others are fine and 13 is better than people give it credit for.

Boom. Get Final Fantasied

@wolfhazard: X is my favorite, XIII killed my interest in the franchise.

X-2 is a super stupid girlpower-game that I hate to love. The combat-system is incredibly cool and shares similarities to FF5 (job system). Cool to play, but you'll likely hate many of the cutscenes.

I know it doesnt tell you anywhere in-game but every single final fantasy that has ever been released has soft reset. On any playstation game if you hold L1, L2, R2, R1, select and start it will bring you back to the main menu. I know I'm a little late to the party but I hope i help someone.

ffx-2 is way more fun. 10 has like a billion bosses with massive amounts of hp. it's a slog with very little sense of humour.
