I think I read somewhere that in the International version of X they increased the likelihood of him using the attack. Could be wrong though. A lot of factors come into play.

Thanks. The OT title couldn't be more fitting.
Perhaps we do, just don't fixate yourself on the "exactly" and maybe you can agree that the opening minutes are very much comparable.

FFX has a good story, soundtrack and gameplay. FF13 doesn't
being linear benefits FFX narrative. and FFX makes things more exciting with shops, little towns, side characters. FF13 is boring as hell pushing information in data logs and having no towns to break up the action. and FFX has mini games, interesting side quests. It just shows that 2 games can have similar design but it's all about the EXECUTION. FFX wins, FF13 fails.

What are some other games touched by Toriyama? The 3rd Birthday also a big chunk of its lolworthy plot into data logs.
Certainly! It was less about criticizing FF X but about showing the failure of FF XIII.
Sure, but the paths aren't as set in stone. There are plenty of chances to 'mess up' and have your characters end up in an entire different section of the grid. The character's sections are also pretty oddly shaped (they make a spiral, neat!) in the ESG, which makes it more confusing.
No.
There's a fairly big 'required' stat jump between the Dark Aeons and Penance though, which is why I recommend just using Zanmato on it.

FFXIII had a PHENOMENAL OST.
I heard there was a game called Final Fantasy X that he touched.
I always forget this lol. I'm always worried he'll die during combat and then I remember I can just revive him
So sorry to hear about it but it also must remind you of him in a beautiful, positive way.

They were all Remastered. Some (like the Battle Theme) were rearranged
I found the original version a bit too harsh and it always got on my nerves after a little while.
Yes. It does a lot of things poorly but FFXIII looks and sounds better than 99% of games out there.
Oh! Yeah, I see what you mean. It's uncanny how the FFX's and FFXIII's opening areas are so similar.
It's far more effective in FF X and not as tedious.
I should not have watched the Spoony reviews.

The lightning dodging is actually the least bad of the three fuckawful Celestial weapon minigames since at least it only requires steadiness and attention. The chocobo racing and butterflies are just fucking terrible.
(This reminds me of how closely I've guarded my last FFX save where I completed all three of these tasks, heh.)

already done the other two. This is my final one. All I have left CW wise is Wakka's, and I've always found Blitz to be easy!
Which reminds me, What's the best end-game Blitz team to have?

I have been playing the PS3 version and I can explain the differences between each version. The PS3 version is the original in HD. The Vita version is given a palette lift, but not as detailed as the PS3 version. Think Sly Cooper: Thrives in Time and you will understand what I mean.

One of the best VAs in FFX for sure. I would totally watch an hour-long special on Shoopufs.
"And that, as they say...is that."
The entire trilogy did, really. Say what you want about Lightning Returns, but it had three games' worth of awesome music in it. Hamauzu/Mizuta/Suzuki are a hell of a composing team, and I hope they work together on future projects.

I'm pretty Toriyama really wanted to make his own FFX but then manged to fail at almost everything. It's pretty impressive really.

Welp I'm starting my playthrough right now!
Lets hope that I'm not as rusty as I think I am. Will have to watch out for the things in the International version since I only played the original.
Looking forward to doing everything in this game!
Might eventually play X-2 but X takes priority.

The one thing that FFX does really well is wrap its story around a cohesive mythology. FFXIII's mythology, on the other hand, is the mad ramblings of a shit flinging mental patient.

Yeah! This thread is about the awesome - for me, the best - Final Fantasy X

Fine with me, only brought it up because Square Enix decided to shovel it down my throat! :3

Kind of pissed off that I had to back out of picking up the HD collection on the Vita today. Did not realise that FFX-2 is download only and since I'm using a US account on a UK machine, it sets up a myriad of problems when it comes cross-save etc. I want to be able to move saves from one machine to the other, but I'm assuming that a UK copy of FFX-2 on the PS3 wouldn't be able to see a US bought digital copy of FFX-2. If I'm wrong, then great, I can buy the UK PS3 physical copy and pick up FFX and FFX-2 on the US store. Somehow, I doubt that'll work, but if anyone can chime in and prove me wrong, please do.

Wow, there were a lot of Primers ins a row around Bikanel Island. I hope I found them all though. I'm doing quite well (I think) with finding primers. I now have I-X and XII-XXI. Still have to try and go back to find XI. Hopefully it is not missable, but I'll find out eventually. Now on the airship!

Man this sucks. I got called in to work....
Oh well playing tonight depending on how tired I am.
Will make 3 save files so I don't have to go through the trouble of starting at the beginning over and over again.

I had a save on my PS2 where I'd learned Blitz Ace just after leaving Besaid. Did it by abusing the infinitely spawning sin spawn when it attacks your ship on the way to Kilika. Yup, time well spent. Definitely won't be doing that this time around.

There's a lot to take in with that Blitzball tutorial.
it doesn't come free, though, so I don't think it can be said it breaks a game, for better mixes rare items are needed, as far as I can remember.

Right now I'm doing my cleanup with the airship and I only have Slice & Dice lol Tidus has been in EVERY battle possible.
