If you buy this game digitally, can you buy just FFX for less?
No, they are tied together in bundle no matter the format.
And holy crap just read the file size for vita for both games is about 7 gb.
'Cause the guy who posted the video is still waiting for his account here to be activated, here are a few lines he wrote about the recording process etc. on reddit:

It looks really good. Bit better than the PS2 version, which is good enough for me.
Can't wait to see what it looks like on OLED (since I believe he said the colours were washed out due to the recording device). Only 3 more months

I think I might go digital with this one.

I think it looks and sound really great, but then again, this will be my first time playing X. Only played XII from the PS2 batch of Final Fantasies.
I am glad I have a Vita, because I would definitely not want to play a (probably) long ass game like this one, on a home console.

Kinda off-topic but there's info about the resolution of the PS3 version? Hope it's at least the same as KH I.5.
This along with Metal Gear are the only two I won't buy digital because of the size. That's crazy big even for my 32gb card.

Looks like I will finally play X. Really looking forward to having it on Vita.

Mmmm, looks delicious. Can't wait for this. Getting both the PS3 and Vita physical versions. Wonder how long before SE releases the OST as DLC...
Hmm, Grandia, BOF, Wild Arms, Chrono Trigger, Mario & Luigi series... etc.

Actually excited for this.
This was the only FF game I was ever really hyped for, had it preordered and everything, cancelled my preorder just before launch... Probobly due to all my MGS2 and Xbox/Gamecube hype.
Always wanted to go back though.

Words cannot express my excitement for this. I still really wish this came out during the holidays in the US to fully capture the nostalgia for me. This was one of my most memorable Christmas-time video games (next to FFX-2 and DQVIII).

This game defined the last gen for me, together with DQVIII.
A shame that the latter probably won't get this treatment FFX got...

Don't worry! It's playable on iOS with a very narrow screen, no orchestrated music, and no voice over!

I think you would be fine with FFX
The battles are turn based goodness. What did you not like about FFVIII? VIII is kind of an oddball in the series.

Isn't the US release cart plus DD for X-2?

So many memories!
No idea if I want the PS3 version for Vita version.

I was having a good time watching the first two hours of gameplay, scratching all those nostalgia itches of the good old PS2 days. And then come the four consecutive 'tutorial' battles after leaving the village that make the encounter rate look like it's one every 3 steps. I fucking hate that part.
Because it cost Square Enix money to make.
How many people are actually going double (triple) dip?
If they offered Digital codes they lose nothing on manufacturing and distribution. Instead they increase the value of their product. I really really don't think they will muster a significantly greater amount of profit from people buying both versions.
Probably because porting two huge JRPGs to Vita is no easy or cheap task. I mean, there's a reason why pretty much all crossbuy games are indies, excluding Sony's own games.

Why exactly would third-parties be giving away free copies of the few Vita titles they're making? Outside of Sony paying the difference like with PS+.
Okay I can understand wanting to promote sales of the Vita version. BUT I think having crossbuy bundled in on the vita version would make sense, while leaving the PS3 version dry.

Crossbuy is mostly only adopted by indie games, as well as a handful of Sony-exclusive titles as an extra incentive.
More to the point, though: these games are going to sell like crazy on both platforms. Crossbuy would effectively cut that huge amount in half. For Square, who have invested quite a bit of resources into making sure both versions look and run great, crossbuy would be a really bad move.
That, and it increases the odds we'll see Final Fantasy XII International get the same treatment.
