I'd be willing to bet this is one of those remasters that's so popular right now. Exact same game, but with some widescreen and a touch of HD.

Like the "PSP Remaster" series?

If done, I assume X would look something like this, only better:

They'll probably upscale, widescreen, and smooth. It'll be like the God of War collection.

A great game but this is yet another cash in.  Am I right in saying it will mostly be upscaling?

Pretty much.

If it was bundled with X-2, and maybe even XII that would be better.

They remade ff 1 2 3 4 5 6 ... and 10. But  7 8 9? the 3 games that would REALLY make a giant impression into HD noope.
FF10 doesn't need a HD port. Only reason why ps2 didn't support HD is because Sony was so damn stingy with video ram.
Bah only if this game ends up looking like ff13 should it be sold to anyone >_>

If they gave ffx the same treatment the god of war games received I would purchase it. I enjoyed ffx and have not played it in a long time.

I'm definitely buying this. My PS2 hasn't been used in a LONG time, this is much better. I've been waiting for them to do this. A pack with X-2 and XII would be better though!

I'm going to be getting this too. Overall, I enjoyed this game. They better use the International version though.

I'd be happy with the version we got in the UK, which as I understand it pretty much IS the international version. With the dark aeons and penance and stuff? The choice between Japanese and English voice acting would also be nice though.

Yeah dark aeons and Penance. And a choice for the Japanese voice acting would be wonderful because honestly, I hated Tidus's voice.

Well, im not gonna lie, i will buy this when it comes out, and i dont wanna bash square enix, these guys rock and without them we would have never gotten
ff7 in the first place, but i do think that these guys make all the wrong decisions, they really need to listen to the fans. And i dont know why, but there's a voice
deep down inside me that tells me they will remake ff7 one day, it is coming, i truly believe that, lol...or maybe i just want to believe it, haha :P

That's not true. Squaresoft was responsible for FF7. That is just me, playing semantics.
I agree with everything else, though.

I've actually been expecting this for a while, because there were rumours a few years ago that this was happening. I wouldn't be surprised if they remade X-2 and XII too. I'd buy both. Cash-in or not, they were all great games in one way or another and the ability to play them in beautiful HD can only enhance what was once an enjoyable experience. Plus trophies for those that care!

I don't get why people are acting like they should be announcing a FF7 remake instead. They'd have to entirely re-work that game from the ground up, and they'd probably totally bastardise it in the process - they're like a completely different company now. It's far easier for them to upscale/update graphics and textures for PS2 games, and I'd much rather they did that and be able to enjoy the same great experience (only enhanced) than them completely change it; which is what they'd have to do to VII.

What we want from a FF7 remake is never going to happen.

They have already stated that FF7 would take too long to do in HD.  i.e. they can't be arsed puttin in the effort of an older game when they can get by on the mediocrity of the new ones.  Why spend 10 years making FF7 in 720p when you can rerelease FFX etc with a simple upscaling and make a wedge of money.

Or they realise that the way they would want to remake it would piss off the original fans. Re-releasing the PS2 era games is a great move.
