It's because it's still one of their best sellers, and the easiest one to remake since it looks fine with just an uprez. The previous ones would necessitate overhauling the content itself.

haha, FF news threads always devolve into arguments about the series.
XII is great. I hope like crazy we get a XII HD with the international content.
Meg Ryan also needs an hd remake

It was incredibly popular here in Japan and made quite a bit of cash for SE. Assuming they don't make a ton of changes, it's the least likely game to need major alternations given its already 'realistic' look. Even if they gave it a full remake visually, they wouldn't have to alter much/if any of the script to make it work. Changing the older games risks backlash, something I'm sure SE wants to avoid right now.
In general, it's also a favorably looked upon entry in the series (ignoring some bad VA work in the west).
And the timing works out right to boot.

You mean like all the other HD redo's? I will take it one way or another. Especially on the Vita.

any company with a popular previous gen game can remake it for free money right now. Doesn't matter how recent a gen it's from.

I hope so, and it better be the International version. It's the only "HD remake" of Final Fantasy PS2 era that I want. So fuck Meg Ryan X. :|

It would require way more work to remaster the PS1 games. I don't see them doing that, ever. Unless X HD sells more than they expect, but then I think they will just HD X-2 and XII.

I would pay a high price for HD versions of all three PS2 FFs if they were each the International version.

Especially FFX-2, which added RIDICULOUS amounts of content. FFXII:I's major tweaks to the battle system sound pretty goddamn awesome too, though.
I'm still really hoping that Squeenix will follow suit with the Kingdom Hearts series fairly soon (including RE:CoM and maybe even Birth By Sleep - which, let's not forget, won't be playable on Vita in its PSP version).

Likelihood of touch support for Vita? The whole battle system and levelling system is menu based.
I do wonder how much effort they are putting into this. Hop.fully it has a simultaneous worldwide release, given that its already been localised once.

Adding an overworld would be really hard, unless you just mean changing the airship map to something in which you could fly over terrain but still only warp back to certain save points.
Guys, please try to remember how the FFVII Tech Demo made you drool for a PS3. Remember how the sales changed. What about now?
The Vita is coming out... I am not gonna fall for another tease by Square Enix again. I will wait for the product to be in my hands before I cry tears of Joy.

What does this even mean? A HD remake of X has been confirmed. That tech demo was a tech demo and sony made no illusions that it was going to be a game.
touch support is 100% likely. final fantasy 1-3 on iOS is all touch-based and it's actually implemented really well (touch the enemy you want to attack or touch their name in the menu list).

What other option would there be on iOS? There's no buttons there.
Only touch I see on Vita FFX is something to make up for L2/R2. That is if those buttons were even used in the original game, I can't even remember.
obviously none, but i was explaining how square did a good job of it on the ios versions of final fantasy so chances are high they'd implement it into the battle system on the vita. it works exceptionally better than using the menus with a d-pad and buttons.

I think they were used to switch between character pages for status screen/equipment screen/Sphere Grid. Nothing a simple finger swipe couldn't do equally well.

Yes, I'm French and I don't write like that. Rest assured, that site is manned by a 5 year-old who just learned copy & paste, no more, no less.
Liar. There's not a "le" in that whole site!
The information was basically a given. Most people expected news to come around TGS.
