Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster (PS4)

Just a great game, hands down. The whole bonkers story is told with style, Sin is ... No way! Yes way, this is an amazing game, the beautiful music complements the movie clips very well, Japanese composers are excellent. Very nice battle system mixing might and magic and Aeons! Woohoo! Summons are wicked with Valefor and Ifrit at the beginning for some serious boss ass kicking. I tend to keep my summons in overdrive mode until a boss pops up and then beat them down quickly.Also your party members, who can be switched in and out of the 3 character selection, can have overdrives as well. These I also keep until needed and unleash them on those ace bosses. Lulu is great for black magic and is h-o-t :-D Wakka is good for aerial targets, Tidus for nimble enemies, Yuna for summons and white magic, Auron for armoured enemies, etc.The world map is big and as with all FF's should open up later in the game to some aerial exploration for finding more goodies and exotic monsters. Brilliant story as well though the baddy is easy to spot early on. The graphics are very clean and colourful with nice effects like a moving sky, trees and grass. Bosses are a lot of fun, each has their own unique attacks and weaknesses, taking Lord Ochu down early on in the game is very satisfying.For under £20 this updated collection of 2 classic Final Fantasy games is a must buy for any game player. Ace!

Final Fantasy x has to be in my top three final fantasy games, maybe even my favourite of all time!Sure enough the HD remaster is everything i expected it to be. It does everything it say's on the tin.I wanted to purchase this on the ps3, but the transition came and the PS4 caught my attention. Rather than going backto boot up the old 80g sony, i thought the memory of FFX/X2 will stay with me when i played it years ago on the ps2.Looking like i would never experience this classic ever again, it was a mere normal day when i stumbled across The HD remaster for ps4 for pre order on Amazon.The Box art stood out to me and with all the nostalgic memory's flooding back, i thought " what better time to recapture the many hour's leveling up using the sphere grid system( The best in my eyes on any final fantasy title) Re living the classic story of Tidus, his friends and the adventure he and his counter parts embark on! The music is as good as i remember and this time around has a arranged setting for you to hear your favourite themes remastered.If you are new to Turn based RPGS....or Final Fantasy for that matter, start here! You will enjoy the amazing Experience and after the four hour mark you will be hooked!I will mention there is some addition content on the main menu which i have not explored yet, however x2 stands down the menu so if you wanted you could play that before x. i recommend you don't do this unless you never experienced x2 the first time around. It gives you the option to jump in.I have to give Final Fantasy x/x2 remastered 5 stars. Support this title as its truly a master piece with easy over 100 hours of gameplay and with the bonus of a Plat trophy to obtain this time round.

An incredible game when it first arrived in PS2, and you can really see the enhancements here in this remaster. An epic story, on of the most iconic in FF history, loads of fun with mini games like Blitzball (and loads of frustration with that thunder dodging challenge!), a twisting plot, villains bent on the world's destruction, huge summons, an enjoyable growth system (the sphere grid).Replaying that game really hammered it home that turn based games are not dead and buried, the turn based system still have plenty to offer even today, demanding thought and strategy and also giving you an actual chance to enjoy the environments and battle scenes rather than whizz though them.If you can't stand frequent story driven cut scenes or turn based games, then move along because you probably are not going to get much from this. But if you liked the original then the remaster has plenty to offer, and if you like other PS4 games from Disgaea to The Witcher, Skyrim to Blood Bowl 2, then give this a chance. It is a classic for a reason, and the remaster only improves the experience.

I just love this game. I played it when it first came out and have re visited it now many years later. Some of the gameplay is a bit annoying, I never play the blitzball mini game as I haven’t a clue what that’s all about! But it does not really effect the outcome, unless you want the character Wakka’s, special weapon. The storyline is what makes this an excellent game. Not just the love story between the main protagonists, but the concepts of this whole world. The different cultures of the communities in various locations. The idea of going to the farplane, a bit like heaven, when you die. A nice mix of playable characters in your team, melee, ranged, mages, warrior types etc. My personal favourite is Auron, he should have his own game, enigmatic, huge back story, and a sexy voice! The advanced graphics make this version easy on the eye. It’s still cartoony in comparison to current PS4 games, but stunning artwork and design.

My opinion on this game is very good and entertaining.
