I LOVED FF X (Except for the F%$$#@^ Chocobo Race for Tidus' ultimate weapon.), I am looking forward to this HD remake if we (US/Europe) can get one.

 

Chocobo racing is nothing compared to lightning jumping to get Lulu's Ultimate O.o

The only compliment I can give FFX is that it is the least pretentious Nojima written FF.

 

... Which isn't saying much. (Same guy who wrote FF8 and Advent Children)

But it is the whiniest.

My sentiments exactly.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

They sure are an unlikeable bunch.

This is old news, but I've just found out I can use GemRB to play Torment, IWD & BG on my smartphone. Awesomesauce. Apparently bunch of other things are possible too, like dosbox.

I'm wondering if the readers even voted on this thing or if they voted but were over ridden by Editors. I imagine their boards (all in Japanese) are a mess about the article.

 

I actually don't have a problem with where X or VII are placed...but something is off in that poll looking at where IX and VI are located. I mean...REALLY off.

 

VI especially.

 

I'm surprised Grandia made it on the list...but great game.

 

Since Grandia Made it, wondering where any representation of the Lunar series is on that list?

the poll was among kids of 10-16 years old, it seems

10-16 year olds wouldn't even know Final Fantasy VII. And were only just born-9 when X came out. I don't see how that claim is supported.

 

People who like a game most are generally going to have been the target audience when it was released.

Each and every one of the Final Fantasy games are better than Dragon Age 2 though :)

...and i welcome a Final Fantasy X HD remake if they exclude Tidus from it. I would rather play a Final Fantay VI remake though, that would be

a FF6 remake should be done by only upgrading the art ala the remake/HD update of monkey island. let it be done so you can switch back and forth between the artwork with the press of a button.

 

same should be done for the FF7 remake if they ever do one


Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.

I rather not see it sullied by modern engines and safe in the nostalgia goggles.

Theres no reason to update FFVI graphically. Like at all. They can't really reproduce the Amano artwork and as far as 2D goes its still gret to look at. In a remake they should just rework some of the mechanics (Which is the only low point of the game)

i dont see why they couldnt do a closer job replicating the amano artwork, the game could look breathtaking if they went a heavily stylized (cell shaded?) look

I can't really see that working without losing a lot of details. And again, unnecessary.

How could you lose detail? There barely was any. You'd have to move to stick figures to have any less.

I can literally count the pixels that make up Sabin's face. And you'd be easily forgiven for not realizing that Kefka is still wearing his makeup, since the number of pixels that comprises that detail could be counted without taking off your shoes.

 

Kefka's also the only one to have a nose.
