Canning a game that already has an official release date? Ace, that’s madness!
Beside, who says Final Fantasy X HD was canned? It’s a low-priority project, no doubt, but it’ll come out eventually.

It appears so, then again the real test would have been if it gets sold digitally as well as on disc.

Absolutely right. Time to run the hype train while the going is good. This is easy money for Square, I have no idea what’s wrong with their Japanese branch and the branch responsible for localizing their Japanese content. I’ve been trying to find my copy of KH1 just before we got word of this and now that it’s a thing (with release date) I just said “Eh, I’m double dipping” that’s how easy the money is, actually in my case triple dip but that’s a story for another day.

I think if they want to stir up hype over the next console KH, this is the best way to do it. HD Ports. :( It’s not even on a dying portable so it has to be done!

First of all, please download the official trailer here:

Okay.
Pause at 0:21. Minor nit-pick here, but what the heck is up with abnormal amount of aliased edges? I remember edges are a lot smoother in the first game.

Next.
From the 0:47-0:50, pay attention to the Kairi and Naminé as they fade in and out from the darkness. What is up with that horrendously pixelated fading effect? Quite an annoyance to the eyes, but nothing too major so let’s move on.

Okay, from 1:03-1:05. Whoa, what the heck is wrong with Naminé’s model there? All pixelated like it was a badly upscaled PSP game… Still, it’s just another minor annoyance.

Here comes the big bad boy!
From 1:20-1:25, it is quite clear that the game is running at a lower frame rate when compared to the footage from first game. The fact that BOTH boss fights and normal battles are affected seems to be quite alarming to say the least.

Seriously, it’s as though Square is too focused on making both the first game and the cutscenes from 358/2 Days look good that the efforts they put into Re:Chain of Memories seem rather lacking. But this is just me reacting to whatever shown in this latest the trailer. Hopefully the retail version won’t be this bad.

It’s sad when we have to hope Square Enix titles come out in NA. Regardless, I’m sure it will come for sure, BELIEVE! /crying about Type-0 still ;-;

Guys, why you downvoting him? he has a valid point, there’s a quite a bit of chugging which cause the framerate to drop.

Something that the original ps2 games didn’t exactly have too much of

want!!!

This really isn’t good for a HD Remaster
