I think that they were trying to go as far away from Meg Ryan as humanly possible.
Exactly what I was thinking of.
he looks terrible. they ruined his hair, it looked amazing in the 1st remaster version the showed.
His hair on the right looks better
Aw shucks, I remember being a bit shocked at the comparison between PS2 Yuna and HD (emotionless) Yuna a couple of months ago but hadn't seen of the damage on Tidus until now... What a shame
The characters seem to have less emotion in the animation.
Tidus looks alright sometimes, but other times he looks high and creepy.
Yuna's previous model was far superior, I miss the suddle emotion in her eyes the old model conveyed.
Rikku's model is different, still prefer her old model.
Wakka looks like his cg model now.
Lulu, Kimahri, and Auron's models are pretty good.

The one on the left looks 100x better then the right. Is that what you guys are saying or do u think the shit on the right is better?
Oh no. The model on the left looks tons better.
It's definitely from an emulator.

Wait, so the left one is the original (upscaled, probably?) and the right one is the final version of the remake?
I really hope it looks better in motion. Because that screenshot on the right looks terrible IMO. "Soulless doll" is spot-on. The eyes are so much worse than the one on the left. It doesn't even look like his eyes are focused on anything.
Does Tidus really look perpetually high the entire game? It's certainly gonna bring a new perspective to the laughing scene.

square soft's work on expressive faces is damn impressive for 2001.wow.Seriously no other game compared.
No, that tidus is from an older build.
You can tell by the hair.
He looks alright half the time.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?

Wow, they really only needed to increase the internal rendering resolution. They really didn't need to touch up any of the models at all.
Old Tidus looks far superior.

It was definitely their focus.
In 2001-2 I thought MGS2 was superior facial tech though (and I was an FF fanboy at the time). But that may because it was smoother and less jaggy. If we compare FFX vs. MGS2 in HD, maybe now FFX is the clear winner.

Lol that looks awful. Is that a vita shot btw?he looks terrible. they ruined his hair, it looked amazing in the 1st remaster version the showed.

Same here. That's how I feel about the new music, too. I don't care for the handful of tracks I've heard, but context really can make all the difference.

Welp, I guess if the things they've adjusted turn out to be shit, I still have my original FFX. I actually replayed it last year and it still looked all right to me. But hell, I still think FFVII looks good.
Seriously....Tidus' face does look like a dolls. Those are the eyes of Chucky, if I've ever seen 'em.

I don't think MGS2 had more expressive faces.Especially the lively eyes were a true highlight in FFX at the time.
They were the Naughty Dogs of that time.Especially considering how many cutscenes the game had and the amount of polish it required.

You've convinced me.
They definitely did. The difference was Naughty Dog was still doing cartoony stuff whereas SE was doing human characters. We can't say for sure ND wasn't capable of that themselves; it just wasn't the type of project they were on at that point.
At that point in time, ND was the closest thing to a Pixar gaming had. The animation in the Jak trilogy was incredible at the time.

I know how you feel. Seeing people getting it early and knowing I have to wait until Friday for it's release is just increasing the hype.

Oh please you guys, at least you won't be getting your copy of the game right in the middle of exams week =(
All I see is dozens of posts discussing Tidus' face....I should stop coming to this thread. I can't handle the hype.
Don't get me wrong. He looks ridiculous. But you'll all very quickly adjust and forget it ever bothered you

I don't pay any attention to all that. It looks far better in motion from the videos I have seen so a few wierd faces in screenshots is nothing

I'm really hoping so. I'm trying not to get hung up on it so much. But it plus the new music (a lot of which I don't enjoy) has me worried. It might all be nonsense by the time I get this bad boy in my hands though.

The re-recorded almost the entire soundtrack. Some for the better, some for the worse. You can find every new track on youtube to compare.
I'm still bitter about "challenge" being ruined.

60 of FF X's tracks have been re-arranged by Masashi Hamauzu. I'm not a fan of a good chunk of them, but there are some gems. If you just go to youtube, you can find comparison videos.
Bah....beaten.
Almost every track in the OST has been remastered. There's no option to choose between the original tracks, you have to use the new ones

EDIT: Beaten, but I posted a vid!
Thanks for the shots. They look great from my vitaMore Screenshots! Vita.
How do you get the vita backgrounds to be so sharp? No matter how high res an image I use, when I set it as the wallpaper it always looks grainy.

What format is the image? I tend to use .PNG format instead of .JPG. Jpegs are lossy (especially if they came from the Vita's screenshot feature - ugh), whereas .PNG images are not. The Vita accepts both types, thankfully!
Not sure if this has been posted, and is a mega spoiler if you're wanting to watch this for yourself after another playthrough, but here's the new audio drama in English finally.
Pick one and go hard, don't split your playtime. It's pretty easy to lose 50-100 hours in either FFX or P4G (and then there's X-2 and Persona 3 after).
Just got my e-mail saying it was shipped, if all goes well it might be in here by tomorrow morning, so happy. :')
They had the 21Th for the release date so I can't wait. I remember pre-ordering and paying this game back in early January after pulling an all-night working and I was dead tired by the end of it. Had to cancel some other titles because March can become quite expensive and this was one of the choices that I made and decided to buy it since the value of two games + the nostalgia value were good value to me.
