Should I replay FFX or wait for the remake?

But making games is not the same as making film... What I mean to say is, it doesn't sound like you understand the processes that they had to go through in order to get the quality they have currently shown - it's a lot more work than you realize and cannot be compared with newer current generation games but rather previous PS2 games that have been remastered of which it looks remarkably better.

I don't know if I would say that it's a lot more work. If you use a Playstation 2 emulator, you can upscale the graphics by tweaking with options that the original Playstation 2 never had. I did this with Persona 4 and it looked very similar to an "HD remake" on my computer.

>>> Tired of waiting for FFX HD? go and play Dark Souls, you will totally forget about FFX, in fact you will totally forget about FF..

I went to play Dark Souls and I didn't forget about FFX or FF. In fact, I wanted to forget about dark souls instead.

True HD meaning exactly what it means. It may be 16:9 and have more definition, but it still isn't really HD (meaning having trillions of colors and 64 bit quality) and definitely not comparable to the Bluray quality we get now. They're selling point would have been if they actually really did an HD game which will basically require a lot of work. This is the laziest I've seen them in a while.

It wasn't a heck of a lot of work, that's apparent. I see that they went and modeled some things that didn't exist due to the fact that they weren't in the 4:9 frame, and they added definition to the textures. It confuses me as to why they would go for the effort of doing that and not make it up to the standards of what's true HD today. Yes, that would require more work. If they don't have any worthwhile extras to this they're not getting my money. They cannot impress with their ghetto HD.

i think you just have unrealistically high expectations for something that is simply a slightly enhanced HD port. and you're still ignoring all the international edition content that has never before been released in the US. Maybe you're just not very interested in ffx in the first place.

PS2 emulators do no magically create high resolution textures or increase the polygon count. All it does is run some filters that do not create "HD" remaster quality that we see in what they've shown of FFX remastered.

I have to admit that I don't have a discerning eye for graphics, but changing the resolution of a game to look better makes a big difference to me. This will look better than upscaling and running some graphical filters it on a Playstation 2 emulator, but I'm not really a fan of enhanced ports, and I think that they should add more content like Atlus did with Persona 4 Golden. I think Final Fantasy VII can use this treatment more than Final Fantasy X.

For the 6th time, they are adding more content, unless you've already got the international version of both FFX and FFX-2. The vast majority of people outside of Japan do not.

>>> M...Mirage???.. Since when you became a FFX fan? I thought you hated it.

I liked it enough to finish it twice, and I liked X-2 enough to finish it 102%, and get 2x iron dukes for everyone.

Also, I think FFX HD looks better than Dark Souls. Take that, "true HD graphics"!
