From playing on a PlayStation 2 to the time I get to buy the Xbox One version, Final Fantasy X will be one of the most cherished games of my experiences.
Firstly, this isn't a game to me, it's an adventure. I was attached to the characters at all times, I felt like I was there on their journey, these people make for great company, even if some can be boisterous.
The music, oh Lord, the music. As soon as the game boots up one is treated to a heart warming piano piece, and the quality is constant all game long, heroic anthems for exciting pieces, somber tunes for emotional scenes, dramatic sounds for tense moments, the music is lovable.
The combat is turn-based, characters and enemies take turns during battles and I likes this battle system, being able to decide one's target and attack, it feels fair.
I say the game is almost perfect, for it is not without it's faults. There's a Blitzball minigame, a cross between association football and water polo, it could be a lot better, not being able to control individual players feels wrong and makes the sport a little unfair.
Some scenes are cringeworthy, this was before the emo subculture was prominent in media, the occasional angst puts me off the characters, which is a shame, considering I've said that I adored the characters.
What else? The visuals, the location is a continent known as Spira, the south is sunny islands, the north is snowy mountains, even the bad weather regions look gorgeous for the time. Dependent on the situation, character models shift between their handsome high-resolution models and their low-resolution versions.
Overall, a fantastic game. I'm so happy to have played it.
