FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD Remaster

My favorite game and FF ever, I played the remastered version on my PS4 for the first time 8 years ago, And I just love everything in this game, The story, combat, characters, music, minigames, visuals, voice acting, both in X and X-2. (and the class system in X-2 is fucking amazing and super fun)
For me this game still tops most of the games I played in recent years considering it's more then 20 years old. and I wish square would do more justice for FFX especially after the will drama.

what a fucking game. its my first final fantasy and i had a hell of a time. amazing story, lovable characters, and probably the best romance i've seen in a game, i really loved Tidus and Yuna.
The grind can become kinda daunting after a while, but the built-in turbo, frequent encounters (or no encounters) and overcharge made it less time consuming than it had to be.
i've yet to play FFX-2, but when i do i'll update this review. for the time being: PLAY FINAL FANTASY X!
(also install untitled project x, it makes the experience 1000 times better with the shared exp and bug fixes, i didnt have any crashes or bugs in my playthrough)

I simply cannot leave a negative review for FFX, but yes, this is a very bad port. Maybe one of squenix's worse ports. Some games you just go to steam library and click play, let me tell you all I run for this game specifically.

Special K (Project X)
Lossless Scaling
DsHidMini
DS4 Windows
JoyToKey
Lightshot

I should mention that only Project X is necessary but Lossless Scaling with LSFG 3.0 makes the game look actually smooth and not choppy (i.e. This is a 30fps game and LSFG 3.0 does frame generation to make it look 60fps). LSFG still struggles a bit with stairs though but everything else is good. There are other frame generation programs out there that are free unlike Lossless Scaling btw.

DsHidMini and DS4 Windows is to get my ps2 controller working with steam games (ps2 to usb adapter).

Lightshot and JoyToKey is because I couldn't get Special K's screenshot to work with FFX (I mapped L3 to printscreen).
Also, in Special K you can go x2 speed or more without speeding the music, I have that mapped to Select + R2.

To top this all off I had to install some mods to fix character models, Tidus' face and hair just being absolutely atrocious. Just go to Nexus mods.

If you don't use at least Project X you will have green screen cutscenes and probably crashes, you may need to update Project X if you have an older version because I think the older version didn't have the 4GB patch. I wanted to mention all these things I use in case newcomers want to optimise their experience with this port further.

Game works worse then it did on my ps2. Almost all the cutscenes dont work and the game crashed about 50 times in the 40 hours i played. Still a great game but your better off getting it on something else

How to make a man cry simulator.. 12 used to be my favorite and now after finishing 10 i can confidently say 10 is my favorite now. the characters, music, and world are all unique and were done phenomenally
10/10 would recommend !

The whole package is dollar per hour worth it, wait for a sale, it's a bit sappy but like it's a fairly linear and approachable entry for Final Fantasy. I think the Sphere system is sorta the messisest system to work with but overall most things are pretty well explained and straight forward. Not blitz ball, always go look up a guide before you lose the first match enabling manual movment makes the sport way more fun and managable.

Its a nostelgia game from childhood with so much touching moments. Too bad sometimes in the movie cutscenes, it will show green background only. Maybe its my computer problem

Its a good game. The best part is the story and the music. The battle system is fun, and the characters development is there, but really focused on the main couple. The stats development and the map exploration is barely useful. The bad i guess it will be the bosses in the main line, is just not that good. I consider this TOP 5 of the FF line.

9/10 its Final Fantasy...

its amazing
great story, great graphics, great characters just fantastic!

Great story, lots of side quests, and just a lot of fun

Another great Square Enix PC port. Apparently you have to set graphics to low and play in windowed mode to not experience crashes during certain FMVs, who knew?

The first Final Fantasy you could break 9999 damage limit. Good story and sphere grid is a nice take on leveling up your characters. Only FF7 is better in my opinion.

I played for 216 hours before realising I could 2x or 4x the game speed :S

Maybe the best game ever made. It's the definition of a true masterpiece. It has such a beautiful and deeply touching story filled with heroism, sacrifice, friendship, love and betrayal. The stakes couldn't be higher! Story aside, the gameplay is engaging and fun. A lot of the boss fights, especially later parts of the game are very good and challenging. Frankly, I don't think anything will ever come out to top it, certainly not in these degenerate times. It's a once in a lifetime type of experience. A rare treasure. A blessing from the heavenly realms.

I've only played X, but IMO it's the greatest story in any game I've ever played. The characters foil each other well. For being the first in the series with voice acting, I think it's pretty good (even the laughing scene).

QOL additions to the PS2 original like autosave and togglable 2x/4x speed are very welcome.

A bit hand hold-ey for much of the game, but at a certain point mid-late game it nudges you out of your comfort zone.

Final Fantasy X is one of the greatest games ever made, and that is a very exclusive club. I won't waste your time by saying what's good about it, as others who are more eloquent than me have already done a better job of that. If you have never played this game before, this Steam version is definitely worth your time. However, there are some issues with this version, most notably that there are new character models which have had mixed reactions with fans of the original PS2 version.

There also seems to be an issue with recent updates causing the game to crash or have some other breakage, but I haven't launched the Steam version in two years (I prefer to play the original PS2 version on physical hardware, and it's a yearly replay for me.) So please be careful and verify that it works with your hardware. Steam is very generous with their refund policy.

The Steam version of this game comes with some quality of life features which are not present in the original PS2 version. You may find them useful if you have no patience for older games that take their time to tell their stories.

This Steam version also comes with Final Fantasy X-2, which I played a little bit, but I can't recommend because I didn't play very much and don't know enough about it. I would like to make clear that the story's premise didn't stick for me, and the themes at the beginning hours of the game that I played where not enough to keep me interested. However, it has the best title-menu theme song in the entire franchise, in my opinion. I liked the song a lot. You might, too.

I'm an old school FF player so I played this when it first came out and I still like it as much. What I don't like is it freezes and closes all the time with no rhyme nor reason. I tried the steam fixes but nothing stops it completely. I like the game enough to suffer through them

Classic. Great story. Fun gameplay. Difficult but rewarding side quests. 10/10 A must play!

One of my favorite RPGs of all time. A well told story that focuses on the characters. Learning Spira at the same time as the protagonist is a fun way to get immersed into the game. Most of the game is voice acted and the music is fantastic. Highly recommend. I have played it through 3 times now, and each time I recapture some of the magic that made it special way back in 2002. Don't spoil the story if you can for yourself. Some of the great twists and revelations come in this game.

I cannot stress this enough -- this game is worth every penny. FFX alone is worth every penny. Add in FFX-2, which is fun in its own way, as well as The Last Mission, which is completely different but still fun, and this remaster is a great deal.

So first, FFX. It is THE quintessential turn-based JRPG, in my opinion. The story is absolutely, gut-wrenchingly stellar, the battle system is incredibly innovative, the cinematics are gorgeous, and the remaster kicked that all up a notch. And the soundtrack, my God. It is my favorite videogame OST of all time. And this is something else the remaster did, they used it as an opportunity to revamp the OST with an orchestra. Of course, you can toggle between the classic and the remastered. Words of wisdom for first-time players, though: make sure you save often, and if you're out farming EXP, make sure you have at least one party member with Ribbon!

Now, for FFX-2. I had a lot of fun with this game, even back when it came out. It trades the turn-based battle system for a more action turn-based with action gauges, which for me was not as good. The story is a continuation of FFX, but mostly with characters -- the plot is only roughly a sequel. You use dress spheres as a sort of class, and each one has its forte. There are many to unlock, so you won't get bored. The Blitzball minigame from FFX got a complete rehaul that sucks, but the other minigames, such as the coin strategy game, are fun. There's a decent amount of content.

The Last Mission is so weird, but again, fun. It's a turn-based dungeon crawler where every move matters. As you make your way around the map, each move triggers enemy monsters' moves and/or attacks. There are 100 floors to complete, with bosses every so often. If you're trying to complete all 100 floors, I recommend looking at a tip guide. The Berserker dress sphere is very helpful, but there are a couple of others that are almost essential, as well.

Bottom line: buy this. It's 2.5 games in one, and each one is well worth the asking price. If you can grab it on sale, all the better.

Rebought it on steam and is just as good if not even better than I remembered it being. This is my favorite game of all time and it still lasts the test of time. Final fantasy games in general are fun fore its large extra content and references from other final fantasy games. If you love the others from the series or jrpgs with tons of side content, this is a great game for you. Additionally, it has a classic but amazing story. Lastly, its 2 games in 1. For its price it is quite cheap, especially on sale.

To date the best final fantasy game imo with the deepest story, and the last one with turn based combat (goated combat system tbh)

Once again, I'm giving one of my all-time favorite games a bad review, because updates have ruined it. Played this game for well-over a hundred hours by launching the exe, NO problems. The one time I had to launch it through Steam, updates were automatically applied, and now it crashes constantly. And no, my setup is not weak nor outdated.

It is nothing short of ridiculous that you can't play a 24-year-old, offline, single-player game without being forced to apply updates. It's bad enough that nearly all newer games do this (had the same issue with four other games on Steam); now they're ruining the classics. It's a travesty to blemish a game as beautiful as FFX with this kind of corporate greed that has taken over the ENTIRE video game industry. I'm not giving one more dollar of my money to Steam or any game developers anywhere, AT LEAST not until they give you the option to decline updates again.

i cried so much over this game. remaster/pc port isnt great but the game itself is one of the best rpgs ive ever played

A beautifully crafted story of a fleeting fantasy. A must-experience JRPG of all time.

"素敵だね"
"二人手をとり 歩けたなら"
"行きたいよ"
"キミの街 家 腕の中"

"その胸"
"からだあずけ"
"宵にまぎれ"
"夢見る"

Love the game, but someone did not think about the gameplay being on pc and the key binding options feel limited for a pc experience - feels instead like someone replicated the ps2 controller system for pc

People hate on this game a lot, but it's pure nostalgia for me. First game I ever played on the PS2 I saved up for as a kid. The updated graphics and high def cutscenes make me feel like an excited kid again

This is the best final fantasy game ever made. I've purchased it about 9 times on different consoles over the years.

IMO, FFX is the GOAT of JRPGs.

If you can get past some of the cringey dialogue/voice acting (looking at you, Tidus), the game's worldbuilding, setting, story, and turn based combat more than make up for it. One of the most memorable gaming experiences I've had.

Its amazing that all 3 older FF games I bought on Steam has required some form of patching to run right.
On this version, cant switch to dubbed jp audio. Brilliant, square. The most basic of features

one of my fav RPG parties, such a great story and interesting setting.

Although I would recommend this game to anyone and everyone, it has 1 annoying glitch I have come across where the screen goes green during CG cutscenes, oddly it doesn't always do it, and as of this review I haven't found a solution that works. Despite that annoying glitch, this game is amazing now as it was back in 2002 when it was first released on PS2, obviously the graphics have had an upgrade for this, and I love the orchestral soundtrack rather than the original, though both are amazing in my opinion, the story is very enjoyable with some slightly cringe worthy dialogue now and then, but looking past that this game has aged astoundingly well and I highly recommend playing it.

I played Final Fantasy X when it first came out, and it’s been a personal favourite ever since. The level of nostalgia I feel when diving back into this game is hard to put into words. It takes me straight back to those school days, chatting with mates about theories, crafting new strategies, and just being absolutely obsessed with the world of Spira.

Revisiting it through the HD Remaster has been such a rewarding experience. Playing through again, this time pushing for 100% completion, felt like reconnecting with an old friend. Spending time with these characters and immersing myself in Spira’s world was even more fulfilling than I expected. There’s a certain magic in its story and setting that just pulls you in.

If you’re thinking about picking this up, I’d absolutely recommend it. Take your time with the story; it’s worth savouring. Sure, the English dub can be a bit rough around the edges, and some of the character designs—especially for the women—can feel a little over-the-top. But if you can look past those quirks, the gameplay and narrative make the journey well worth it.

Whether you’re returning to Spira or experiencing it for the first time, Final Fantasy X HD Remaster is a timeless classic that’s still got that X-factor.

This game is an absolute masterpiece. The combat system is the best of every Final Fantasy game I've played (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10). The story is, in my opinion, profound. As someone who has played over 30,000 hours of video games in my life, I cannot recommend this game highly enough.

10/10.

I love this FFX game from ps2 to now although some things have been changed from the ps2 version like blitz ball changed and a few other things you will notice. Overall id still play this over and over again. Even if it is not on sale id still buy it worth every cent.

A classic game I wish i played sooner. Amazing story, lovable characters and a beautiful soundtrack.

The last of the turn based FF games and one of the greatest graphics of its time

FFX is an amazing game but this remaster is extremely broken, it crashes often, cutscenes are replaced by green screens and the controller support is terrible despite this game being released for consoles in the first place.

FF-X is a delight, and FFX2 is a great finality. Zero Mission you can skip on, but overall a great package.

However, FFX2 does certainly bring the collection down a bit if only for the absurd completion requirements and over saturation of mini-games. I still recommend it, but sadly it could have been more.

This game is such an iconic FF game. Have been playing this game over and over since I was a kid and still play and love this game to this day

Final Fantasy X remains a beloved entry in the Final Fantasy series, thanks to its compelling story, rich character development, innovative gameplay, and beautiful soundtrack. It successfully combines the best elements of traditional RPGs with modern enhancements, creating a timeless experience that continues to resonate with players.

Whether you're a long-time fan of the series or a newcomer, Final Fantasy X offers an unforgettable journey through the world of Spira, filled with emotion, adventure, and discovery.

The world building and character development is top tier in my opinion. Final Fantasy X is one of my favorite games in the series!

FFX is bar none my favorite FF and probably one of my favorite games of all time . The battle system is so simple yet so deep and customizable that i can't help but love this game so much. Riku and her mixes are so fun to learn ! FFX-2 on the other hand is pretty meh in my opinion , I love how Yuna is potrayed as more confident but it is so jarring that my brain rejects it . Gameplay and OST for it is pretty darn great though

Final Fantasy X is the best game of all time. One of my all time favorite turn based RPG's.
Game play 10/10
Music 10/10
Story 10/10

Personally my favorite game of all time. played and own in on multiple systems and have beaten it quite a few times as well. i come back and play it every couple of years.

This Game is one of the best games i've tried ever also i wish everyone to try it because it will make you love the whole FINAL FANTASY games. For me it's one of the best games i have ever tried so thanks to Square Enix for making such a game. Really i like it and for me (and from my own viewpoint) its the best game i have ever tried. Thanks

Nothing beats the classic! I had problems in making this game a full screen so i need to adjust the settings. Other than that its 100% amazing

10/10

If you're new to JRPGs and looking for somewhere to start, start with FFX. The characters are great, the story is captivating and the world of Spira feels like a dream to explore. The remaster does its best to elevate some of the original graphics without compromising any of the PS2 era charm, something the game has in abundance. I definitely recommend, especially if you're looking for something to sink 20-30 hours into.

Definitely my favorite of the Final Fantasy Series (other than 14). The graphics of this port aren't great buuuut the story more than makes up for it.

guys, this game is a proof, that there is games that is eternal and never die. love gameplay and this amazing music for every situation and location in game. 100% recommendation

one of the greatest games I have ever played, the ending is incredible and each boss is timeless on top of one of the best combat systems in a turn based game
