Final Fantasy X|X-2 HD Remaster |OT| G - A - F in position, it's showtime gurlz!
- Thread starter ULTROS!
- Start date
The Vita loading is not 6-8 seconds, but it does seem like load screens are more noticeable than when I originally played it. Don't have the original game to compare too right now though.

nope.
Not on PS3. One giant file. They couldn't even bother naming it correctly either. It's just called X-2 HD Remaster once it's downloaded.

Yeah, load times do seem fairly noticeable.
I haven't timed the load times myself to say for sure, but from the little time I've spent with the PS3 and Vita versions, it feels like Vita's load times are more noticeable (i.e. a little longer, but not by much). Has anyone else felt this is the case?
Only if you have the Japanese version and a CFW'd PlayStation. Can move the subtitles file around and get an 'undub' version.

Yea they're maybe a second or two longer on Vita than PS3.

If I could've picked one to be spared, it would've been that. :/

Having a blast with the game. I remember owning my first ps2 and renting this game. Never really got too far, and never got into it as much as I am now. So I can consider this my forst time with the game. Are there some things I should look out? I know getting every characters ultimate weapon is hard and tedious. But any other secrets?

Is there still a chance they will offer the games separately on PSN?
I don't want FF X-2 but would be happy to pay 20 bucks for FFX.
Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 were also offered separately after a while, and Tales of Symphonia was also sold separately.

I'm the other way. I don't want to play FFX again, and I never played X-2 and am desperate for a JRPG to play on my Vita.

My advice would be to revisit previous areas later in the game. You'll usually find something that you either missed before or a new occurrence triggered by a certain part of the story.
Also if you're playing the game blind and are hunting trophies, at least look up how to get the missable al bhed primers. I think there are 4 total out of the 26.

My digital copy on the vita seems quick...1-2 second loads... But then again I haven't left Besaid yet.
This expert sphere grid is confusing me. I feel like with one wrong turn I'll have two characters being exactly the same too early.

Suspension of disbelief sir, you're going to need it.
So glad to finally have this. Music is phenomenal and Tidus is so pretty on the Vita.
I'm also a little worried about choosing Expert so confidently now, some research might be in order.

me too, over 200 hours. I'm kinda scared of this game now, it was so long since I played a game that long.

Does this game have on-screen enemies or random battles? I can't seem to remember.

Random.

God bless this game for only having 1 missable trophy and of course I already knew what it was and where you miss it (the Al-behd primers).
I hate feeling like I have to use a walkthrough the first time I play because you'll never find everything without one. I'm just going to play the game and worry about that crap later (if I feel like it)

Agreed, and thankfully the missable primers are obvious if you've played that part of the game before.
not really, that was so long ago, that I only remember that there were some missable, but I don't remember where and when.
one probably is in Al Bhed fortress that gets destroyed
I just went to listen to it an it's certainly lost something. I like all the other updated tracks, but this one is a miss for me. I think it's the out of tune piano in the background, at least that's what it sounds like.

I just ordered this on Amazon. Should be here Friday. I'd like to sell off the X-2 PSN code for Vita. If anyone wants it for $20 paypal, PM me.
You can get them over many seperate playthroughs. There are stones hidden around the world that allow you to copy any primers you've found in other save files.

Not sure we are looking at the same OT, but it's in there... towards the bottom of the picture. It's March 18th for NA, March 21st for EU.

I remember when I played the PS2 version, the only thing I missed were the primers. I put a lot of time in my first playthrough (220hr), but then what I did was to do another quick playthrough, almost like a speed run, just to get all the primers. Don't know if I'll do that this time but it's an option.
He is certainly up there but Lulu's updated character model looks so good...
Agreed. Having compared them all, I think Lulu got the biggest upgrade, and then Wakka, all the rest of them, and then at the very end of the upgrade scale is Tidus.

Just listened to the new Wandering Flame, it's really not that bad. I like the original better, but the new version is good in its own right.
Are the artbooks the same in content?

I haven't opened them yet. Don't know if I will. First thing is, the CE's artbook is bigger in size (same size as the guide), and it has 40 pages, as opposed to the LE's 24 pages artbook. I don't know if some of the images are the same though. Maybe someone here knows?

so i was watching my friend play FFX HD on his PS3. is it bad that the first thing that came to my mind is that even though its in HD, i kinda wish they just waited longer and completely remade the game so it would actually look like an HD final fantasy game, rather than just a remaster(keeping the battle systems intact though)?
i just keep watching and seeing that the game could have looked soo much better if it was remade from the ground up. kinda like if they went the Wind Waker HD route.

pretty sure this has more time and effort put into it than WWHD which was just a quick 6 month port job

We have been waiting for like 2 years already, the PS4 is out. They really couldn't wait any longer.
Besides, I like it the way it is. It doesn't need FF13 graphics. I do wish they would have allowed for skipping of tutorials though.
