200 lighting trophy
0.0.0 chocobo trophy
fucking hell...
my point exactly, it is hell if I ever have seen one (><)
I actually never maxed grid but it can't be worse than doing those 2 again!

there is a nice spot, where the lightning always hits right in a corner, that's where I grinded on the PS2 version for it (counted with a check list >.<), makes it a lot easier, at least for me.
I hated khimaris butterfly thingy waaaay more <.<
and chocobo run..omg... I tried hours after hours and finally was able to get 0.0.0 once, run straight to save sphere and guess what... Morbol/Marlborro came across and wiped my party -.-
btw: even after the lightning triology has ended, we still have to deal with her ;/

Easy, the real problem is butterflies.

Maxing out the grid will take way longer than both of those trophies combined. It's just less frustrating -.-
I'm on Vita, so lag didn't come to mind at first, but yes I have to press a bit before the yellow bar. After a quick google search it seems like some people have this problem too . Weird.
Huh. I haven't noticed any lag when it comes to Tidus's Overdrives. Weird.

I may have to try Expert Sphere Grid. Although I've only played once in the pass, I think I'll manage.
Has anyone tried buying the guide book? It seems like its sold out online.

Lol very true about Lightning and I remember the crater you run in a circle to avoid it. My fondest memory is getting 197 and having my 3rd nephew decide he wanted to play with me. I made Lulu a custom weapon after that. Never had an issue with the buttleflies so I never paid it much thought.
Yeah I also found people saying this on the internet, notably gamefaqs. Some say it's just his first overdrive though, we'll see.

The very first time I used Meg Ryan's overdrive there was input delay, but every time since it's been fine.
It actually threw me off the second time I used it because I was expecting input delay and there wasn't any

Just got my Limited Edition through the letterbox. Shit looks...
Not opening it yet though. You've got to put weeks into these games to complete them, and I'm expecting Second Son tomorrow, which I can probably breeze through in a matter of days, so I don't want to get side-tracked during my revisit to Spira.

Not having any input lag issues on my S60 Panny, but I got that HDTV knowing it had lower input lag than most.

Thank you Jesus. I've been relying on Tidus with Haste and Cheer. I feel like he should be doing more damage but whateverrr.
At least I beat the

I just hope we can actually see the butterflies this time, the upscale has been great for primers so far.

Picked this up at launch; I'm currently in Guadosalam, specifically at the scene where
After seeing how aggressively shitty the Jak trilogy was, I'm impressed by how well the game looks and runs. The only real problem is the frequency of load-times, but even that hasn't been a major issue. It's a nice change of pace from the usual quality of Vita ports.
They REALLY fucked up the redesigned faces, though. Everyone is less expressive, especially Yuna, and Tidus looks like a deformed doll with plastic eyes. The characters emoted better 14 years ago. It's a jarring downgrade that has yet to stop bothering me.
The game is still just as fun to play through as when I was in middle school. One thing I've been struck by is how easy the game has been so far--I remember it being a real backbreaker later on, but I haven't had many problems yet. I just hope the difficulty curve isn't too steep...
One thing I've been wondering about: from Guadosalam onwards, where are the best areas to grind? I've heard the bridge on Bevelle mentioned, but are there any others?
creepy stalker ass Seymour proposes to Yuna.

You don't really need to grind at all in the main FFX story if you just include every character in every battle (giving them all a turn) and make sure to overkill just about every single enemy (definitely every single boss).

Did it literally come though the letterbox? Mine is being delivered by Amazon Logistics and has apparently been handed to a resident even though no one is home. I'm worried that it's sitting outside somewhere.
Well at least there's comfort that it's slightly easier. Yeah not looking forward to the shpere grind, wouldn't be a problem if we could store more than 99, as with the amount of battle I have I would accumulate thousands *sigh*.
This is what got to me as well, I think it's cause during last generation they were severely reduced. With that said whilst playing the game you do get used to it again and you barely notice.

Shop equipment are the worst in FFX imo.
They put Froststrike with Firestrike for auto abilities.... like wtf?
Its much better to just put in your own ability choices.

That's it. I've tried to start playing X first but the combat system is flat and boring so I'll start X2 now and leave X for one of those boring summer afternoons.
Where can I find a good walkthrough of X2 with all the International content? I wanted to buy the guide but it's been delayed 2 weeks in Spain

Ugh, amazon
.sent me two copies and charged me twice. Hmm, maybe I should keep the other one unopened and store it.

So what's different about the sphere grid here? So far looks the same as vanilla X.

It IS the same unless you chose the Expert grid. Expert grid is a little smaller and allows for more customization of each character.
so, any ideas?

I like taking my melee focused characters down Tidus's path mainly for Quick Hit.

Got to see the laughing scene in HD, thanks Square!
Forgot how handicapped you got in Blitzball. I had to try it three times to win the championship. Thinking I am going to skip 100% until the next playthrough and just go for the Al Bhed Primers. Anything else that carries over unto a new file?

It did sir. Ordered mine through Amazon too, didn't pay for postage and packaging, but it still came today and was delivered through the letterbox. I wouldn't worry about your package sitting on the porch.
I'm in the UK by the way, if that makes any difference. Maybe our Royal Mail does things differently to wherever you're from.
Not really. You might end up with a character who is weaker if he wanders into a weak part of the grid for him, but the game is easy as it is, and you can always get more sphere levels to move them back. Plus hopefully for every weaker character (for me, Wakka) you end up with one or two stronger ones.
Nobody should ever have to reset because they went down "the wrong grid". Heck, some crazy people play through the game without touching the grid at all!

Awesome, thanks for replying. I'm in the UK too so hopefully it's safely inside my house.
Even the standard one is kinda confusing to me. I just want to enjoy the story. So, if there is no real possibility of screwing myself down the road. I'm happy to hear that.
It is possible to end up wandering up the low levels and have characters with a whole bunch of skills but low stat distribution, but there's still clearly outlined paths for everyone (sans Kimahri). You can just start following one if you get lost.
It looks sub-native to me BUT has a very soft and clean image quality so it still looks quite nice.
Assuming you've played the game before it should be pretty obvious which character goes where. Unless you're intentionally deviating from the path you won't screw up.
But I suppose deviating from the path is most of the fun of the expert grid, if you aren't intending to be a little creative and just want to be straightforward you might as well go standard.
It's been over 10 years.. I doubt I'll remember anything when it comes to the grid. I'm kind of hoping to do a hybrid so I don't screw up my characters - assuming it's possible. As I said, been a long time
There is no NG+ for FFX, only X-2. You can carry Al Bhed Primers over from one save to another on X, but that's it.

No NG+ for X, but X-2 has one. Everything except character levels, and maybe a few key items

How do you intentionally "overkill", I do it about 55% of the time, but I have no intention to do it or what causes it to happen...

If it's not native it can't be far off. It looks amazing
I think we owe SE an apology regarding the Vita version.
I remember for months we had no media or release date for it and we all assumed it had been quietly cancelled.
Fast forward to now and the game looks and runs great on the Vita, there was nothing to worry about.
Hyped for XII Vita if this is what they can pull off already.
From the wiki. Long story short: just use really strong attacks to kill enemies and get bonus AP and items for it. Overdrive, summon attacks, strong spells, etc.
