X + X-2 HD bundled for PS3

[Karifean]

Hello readers! Perhaps by this point you were already pretty geared up for the HD release of Final Fantasy X? Now there's even more swirling in the rumor mill to get excited about.

Rumors have been churning that Final Fantasy X-2 will be included in the same disk as the FFX HD title. This rumor has seemingly been confirmed by a screenshot of Jump Magazine (http://i.imgur.com/oHF3Nev.jpg). This exciting news states that the game will also be available on the Vita, on a different cartridge.

Sounds like we haven't heard the end from YRP

Although there is still no official release date for this game, it is good to hear information continue to trickle out after months of silence. This is the first mention of the X-2 being included in the remake! Could this last bit of information be the precursor to an official announcement on the game? Time will tell! Until then discuss if this affects your view on purchasing the FFX HD bundle on our forums!

Ah, if true, that's very good!

[ShinGundam]

Ah, if true, that's very good!
It is.

[Mirage]

It is.

[DMKA]

It's true, and I'm very excited about it.

Oh man, if they use the International Version of both games for this release, that would be AWESOME.

[Shauna]

I knew we should have waited a while before getting the PS3! xD

[Pheesh]

Sweet, never did play X-2 so this will be my excuse to do so.

[Aulayna]

This is sexy news.

I can't wait to get my Sphere Break on again!

[Goldenboko]

Maybe I'll actually manage to finish FFX-2. :lol:

[Teek]

We can finally play the International Edition. I am extremely happy.

[metagloria]

Two of my top 10 favorite games of all time. And if they're the international versions...wow. This is the second-best thing Squeenix could pull off (we all know #1).

[Karifean]

I'm starting to wonder if this is the game they "didn't announce" at the PS4 Event.

[Mirage]

Why would it be?

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

SE, just take my money already. While you are at it, take some for KH1.5HD.

[nirojan]

There were some questions earlier if FF X-2 was HD or not. Weekly Shounen Jump confirms that it is HD:
Yes, Final Fantasy X-2 Is Getting An HD Remaster, Too | Siliconera (http://www.siliconera.com/2013/03/20/yes-final-fantasy-x-2-is-getting-an-hd-remaster-too/)

[Mirage]

Please god let it be 1920x1080.

[Nebulance]

Please god let it be 1920x1080.

I hope so, but it seems that even 'regular' PS3 releases tend to be 720p -- The Uncharted Series isn't 1080p, which never made any sense to me. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Although, the only game I own in 1080p is Metal Gear Solid 4. (I don't think Rising: Revengeance is 1080p).

[Mirage]

MGS4 is not 1920x1080, it's not even "1080p". It is 1024x768 scaled to 1280x720.

In either case, the game not being a "regular" PS3 game makes it 1080p more likely, not less. PS2 games have lower texture resolutions, fewer polygons and fewer "special effects", making the games easier to run at a higher resolution than "real" PS3 games.

Graphical resolution is normally a technical limitation, not a budget limitation.

It looks like Square Enix is finally realizing that people in NA want to play the extra content in the international/final mix/last mission/ whatever they call it releases. :)

[Cloudane]

Aw man, all kinds of awesome. Will look forward to both!

I WOULD SELL MY SOUL TO HAVE THIS ON THE XBOX 360 WHY IS IT NOT HAPPENING? WHY?? :crying:

[Mirage]

Maybe it's just a timed exclusive, idk. Or maybe you should just buy a PS3?!!!?!?!?????!?!!

[Pike]

No point in buying a PS3 for one single game. Especially not when I'm this poor. xD

[Mirage]

Then buy more games!

[Pike]

I can't afford it!

[Mirage]

Steal more games.

Watch Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD walkthrough from Youtube. But it seems you have to wait for someone to make Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD walkthrough. That's what I did. Because I do not have xbox 360 or ps3. :)
