I wish they would do XII International. I've emulated it but would be neat showing it to my brother at his place without a PC.

So uh... are they remastering the remastered version?

I loved FFX but when will this madness stop?

Also yeah, I'd rather see a FFXII HD upgrade first.

Nothing dates a "timeless" classic like the inclusion of a calendar.

The PS3 remaster have a retro jagged/grainy PS2 look to it, PS4 one is all anti aliased and looks like a PS3 (remastered) game lol
Also, the AR in both looks off being in 16:9, the heads are either stretched or compressed wtf

They ported it over to the PS4 to target gamers who have moved on from the PS3. Won't be surprised if Kingdom Hearts 1.5 and 2.5 come out on the PS4 too.

the only thing that's worth "upgrading" to this from the ps3 version is the inclusion of the original soundtrack....

The inclusion of the option to toggle back to the original soundtrack makes this version much better.
Some of the remixed remastered versions of some tracks are atrocious compared to the original renditions.

The only complain I have is that Square Enix unfortunately outsourced the appearances of the characters to
a Chinese company and for some odd reason they decided to alter Yuna and Tidus instead of sticking to the original models
like they did with all other characters. The PS4 version is still definitely worth picking up. The faces for Tidus and Yuna are better in the PS2 version.

Playing through it again using the original soundtrack option.

PS2 version Killika attacked (running on backwards compatible PS3)




Direct comparison of the same part

PS4 version (selected original soundtrack option)


Vita version
