They should get it out the door as fast as possible so they can move onto something far more important; FF XII HD remaster.

I hate X. But I'll buy this in hopes of Square remastering XII.

As a PAL gamer I dont give a shit. I want a copy of FFX that's not 50hz and doesnt have black fucking borders.
I always get depressed when I fire FFX up and then see how crap they made the PAL version. Tidus runs so slow like he's quick sand.

When you play FFXII in widescreen mode they just leave the cutscenes at 4:3 with borders, they'll probably do the same I guess. Don't know about the few pre-rendered backgrounds though.

LOL, my cousin gave me his US FF8 and it was a revelation, couldn't believe how fast Squall ran.
It's tiny compared to ff12
As much as OoT is a remake... which DOES seem possible actually, but yeah. It wouldn't be a proper, full blown remake.
How many Final Fantasy games can be played on the VITA?
I mean if I wanted to play through the whole franchise from the first one till FFX on the VITA, which games can be possibly obtained digitally or otherwise and work on the VITA?
On top of my head:
PSone:- FFVII, FFVIII, FFIX - on PSN
PSP:- FFI & II, FFIV: complete - on PSN
Am I missing anything?
EDIT: I mean Mainline Entries.

Final Fantasy V, VI, Tactics, and Tactics: The War of the Lions are also available on the PSN. Unfortunately, you won't be able to play PS1 Classics on the PS Vita at launch.

Everything about this screams upscaled port to me, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

Oh ya forgot about V (which is free this week for PS+
) & VI, and sorry I didn't mention it: I meant only the Mainline entries.Shame about the PS1 classics not being compatible at launch, but eventually the VITA can be the Go-to machine for the Final Fantasy classics (Digitally).
EDIT: Digital FF classics.

This. Once you play IZJS, it's so hard to go back to vanilla.

I hadn't even really entertained the idea that it would be anything else. I don't really mind anyway as that's really what i want from games like this anyway.
I mean as many as possible all the way to FFX, and sorry meant can be obtained Digitally.

I do not expect HD CGIs because the 360 version probably won't be able to store them on a single DVD. The only reason I could see it happen is if the game is released full price (70€ and 360 gets 2 DVDs. I hope that the backgrounds will be HD though...
and 360 gets 2 DVDs. I hope that the backgrounds will be HD though...Did they even say there'd be a 360 version? Though Vita's damning there anyway with near-HD resolution and 4 GB carts.
Why do you expect a 360 release at all?

Did you expect FFXIII 360?

Hmm.. good point.
All FF games upto 10, with the notible exception of FF3.
What I don't get is if there was a 360 version in development, wouldn't they have just announced it already?
like FFXIII-2? was announced for PS360 on the get-go.
something doesn't add up.
Once they announced it, yes.

I will agree if they give us something better than the PSOne Classics for V-VI. Would love the Complete treatment, or just the originals coded from scratch for the PSP or Vita.

I think they need to redraw some of the 2D backgrounds, e.g. the zone line in Rabanastre looks terrible.

Will it be a system seller for Vita in Japan?
HD Remasters are never system sellers.

My bad then. I really thought SE was in in full third party mode. Everything is 360/PS3 nowadays so I thought this was the same for FFX remaster. Sorry guys.

Not to any large or lasting effect, anyway. 3DS got a bit of a bump with OOT 3D, but the next week it was back to business as normal.
Nothing to be sorry about. The reason I don't think there will be a 360 version is they've already gone multiplatform with the series, when they announced XIII-2, they confirmed 360 at the same time as PS3, it wasn't some secret held till later. Also, and probably the bigger issue, is Sony co-marketed FFX, and published it in Europe. The exclusivity deal was probably very tight.
I'm not saying it's not coming, but I'd be surprised.
But even worse than the 360 DVDs, the PSV game carts are really small. I do still hope they redo the CG though. It'll look like dog shit next to the real time HD stuff.
I really hope they do FFX-2 and FFXII IZJS. I'd play them all on Vita.

I still have my FFX piggyback guide so I want to put it to use again.

I expect that game to look quite well on a Vita screen.
The European version of the game had some serious flaws, I am looking forward to play it without these flaws.

Seriously, doesn't the words HD gives a hint? :|
Meh, FFX is what led me to stop caring about the FF franchise. I'd be interested in a remaster of FFXII like others. I picked up a used copy a few years back but I had a backwards compatible PS3 at that point, now I no longer do so hoping I gt the opportunity to give it another shot some day.

Not surprised.It was the most logical thing to expect.
What flaws?
