    I'm excited. X will be breathtaking after getting an HD face lift. X is a beautiful game already and that is why it will benefit the most from an HD remake, oddly enough. Like others said, to remake the PS1 Final Fantasy games it would require that the graphics and world would have been to redone. The result could be bad. Final Fantasy X on the other hand has a lot of scenery and effects that will truly shine in HD.

    I think that the 16-bit games could be updated to HD though. The art would have to be redone, which was done for the 8-bit games for their upgrade to 16-bit. But I think it would be manageable. I mean, look at Earth Worm Jim HD on the PSN (there is a demo available)... the game is stunning! Perhaps Earth Worm Jim has graphics that translate better today than V and VI but I think that can be changed by redrawing the graphics like they did with FFI and II. 2D HD games can be stunning and I would love to see PSN/XBLA HD 16-bit FF remakes but I know that it is highly unlikely to happen.
    Lamia's Tiara- Headgear in FFIX
    Lamia's Flute- Weapon for Eiko in FFIX
    Lamia in FFV- a enemy
    appearance: a lady with long brown hair, wearing a tiara...half woman and half snake.
    Lamia in FF3j- A Harp
    Lamia in FFL2- An enemy
    FF2j Queen Lamia, at one point she even gets Frionel in a bedroom with her and jumps on the bed and says "take me!".. before she turns into her snakey self. She serves as a mini boss in this game (as Queen Lamia).. and after you fight her as a mini boss, regular lamia's become random foes and later on in the game, Queen Lamia's become random foes as well.
    LamiaScl. an item that paralyzes foes.
    According to legend, she was once a Libyan queen (or princess) who fell in love with Zeus. Zeus' jealous wife Hera deformed her into a monster and murdered their offspring. She also made Lamia unable to close her eyes, so that she couldn't find any rest from the obsessing image of her dead children. When Zeus saw what had be done to Lamia, he felt pity for her and gave his former lover a gift: she could remove her eyes, and then put them on again. This way, though sleepless, she could rest from her misfortune. Lamia envied other the other mothers and took her vengeance by stealing their children and devouring them.

    I just hope they'll make it run at a stable 60 fps.
