    So it is now official! Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster will be available on Steam in THREE DAYS! Now you can re-live the majesty that is blitzball on your personal computer! Sources are indicating that the PC version "will include a rearranged soundtrack and content from international editions of the game previously only available in Europe and Japan."

    OH BOY...Another Final Fantasy game is coming to the PC!
    OH BOY...Another Final Fantasy game is coming to the PC!

    Funny thing is that the recommended specs include a 2.4 GHz quad-core processor, 2 GB of RAM, a semi-modern GeForce or Radeon card, and roughly 40 GB of space on your hard drive. The recommended specs for Final Fantasy IX are actually higher and recommend a Core i5 2520 2.5GHz or better for the processor and 4 GB of RAM. On the flip-side Final Fantasy IX is just a 20 GB download.

    No word yet on how much the package will cost for PC users.

    Considering your reaction to VIII, X-2 might actually cause you physical harm.

    So it's just the remastered soundtrack? The PS4 version had options for both that and classic right?

    I love X-2 precisely because of how much of a middle finger it is to the rest of the franchise. Also, the battle system is one of the best in my opinion.

    edit: Also, Blitzball will forever be the worst thing ever put into any video game ever.

    The speed-up function makes this release tempting since it means I could skip all of the terrible cutscenes and just enjoy the really good turn-based gameplay. I'll have to wait and see if the fast forward button works during cutscenes or not.

    The nostalgia for this title is way too strong for me, despite the fact that I've fallen off with the franchise over the years.
    Despite already owning it on PS2 and PS3, I'm going to buy this version like the easily pandered-to asshole I am.

    Tempting for the sake of switching between the original and remastered soundtracks and speed up features, but I already spent about 50 hours with FFX on my VIta two weeks ago, and I've been meaning to try out my OG PS2 physical copy with PCSX2. So, I'm good.

    Strangely fitting that ZP is giving us all this news. Also reminds me that I never quite played the PS3 remaster version even though I have it on the shelf.

    Is XII now the last one to not have a PC release? Makes me think we'll be seeing the remaster of that pretty soon here.

    @atwa I will fight you, sir or madam!

    Seriously though, this seems like a strange move? I know the only point of all Final Fantasy releases now are nostalgia dollars, but this only recently came out on the other platforms, didn't it? I suppose it'll be the first time non-Sony users would be able to play them, but I would think the user base that is a) completely non-Sony and b) a current final fantasy fan would be pretty slim, no?

    Whatever, I guess now a whole new user base will know the horror of Japanese to English VO pacing.

    Blitzball could have been awesome if it wasn't so easily broken apart. My main issue with X continues to be that stupid chocobo race. Otherwise it's one of my favourite games

    Blitzball is fuck, its so easy to break. Just get the best characters and you will never lose doing the same moves over and over, there is no skill involved its just numbers. I got Wakka's Celestial Weapon and its not fun one bit, its just tedious and takes a while.

    @atwa: @dudeglove: You wanna talk breaking? Score once and swim behind your own net. The other team just freaks out and swims around aimlessly until the clock runs down. I got Wakka's weapon and reels in no time, never lost a game.

    I bought the remaster for PS3 but never played it because I still have nightmares about Chocobo races and dodging lightning from the PS2 days. And I never even played a game of Blitzball beyond the mandatory one. I really want to play X again, but I really, really don't want to subject myself to that hell again. Maybe mods or cheat engine will make those aspects of the game tolerable.

    In other news, they're running out of Final Fantasy games that aren't FFXII to re-release...

    I was just watching this video by digital foundry comparing different versions of the game. I know it's not out yet, but it has to be a port of the PS3/4 version which does not fill me with confidence. The ways in which it falls short of even the PS2 version makes me feel a little ripped off for buying it on PS3. Many faces look much worse and were changed for seemingly no reason. The anisotropic filtering is terrible. Weird framerate dips. Missing effects.

    I will still buy it on PC probably, because I know I can just return it if I want to.

    It should be trivial to use Cheat Engine to skip (most of) the lighting dodging for Lulu's weapon. Basically just dodge lighting a couple times, look for that number in memory, dodge a few more times, filter by values increased the amount you dodged, repeat until you get down to one address, change value to 200+.

    Sadly, skipping Blitzball is probably not as easy.

    I did not like the characters or story of FFX - but it has my favorite battle system of any the FF games. I far prefer its strict turn based system to bars filling up. Shame they went back to bars filling up in the sequel.

    If FFX's high speed mode is as great as the FFIX high speed mode, I might actually replay FFX after all these years.

    @sweetz: FFX made me realise how much I didn't really like all of the previous FF's battle systems. And yeah, it's a shame, because I wasn't too fond of the narrative either.
