Okay, so imagine scrolling through the PS Store and — boom — you spot the "Big Games Big Deals" sale banner. Yeah, it’s one of those moments where you just kind of stop and stare, because why not? Anyway, here’s the scoop: some classic PS2 JRPGs, all dressed up for modern consoles, are going for a steal. I mean, these things were remastered for PS4 a decade ago, and now they’re cheap. Go figure.
So, here’s the deal with Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster being priced at a shockingly low $9.99. Honestly, that’s a wild 60% off from the regular $24.99. If you’re like me and think too much about everything, you might hesitate. But the clock’s ticking — offer ends May 8 at 2:59 a.m. ET. Don’t ask me why the time’s so precise, though.
Let me try to piece this story together — Final Fantasy X is all about Tidus (a blitzball star, whatever that means) and Yuna (your not-so-average summoner) on an epic jaunt to save Spira from the chaos of Sin. You know, classic epic stuff.
Meanwhile, Final Fantasy X-2 circles back to Spira a couple of years later with Yuna — driven by some cryptic, nostalgic image in a sphere (yes, really) — embarking on a globe-trotting hunt with pals Rikku and Paine. Because who doesn’t like solving mysteries, right?
Oh, and let’s not forget — the HD Remaster version brings the PS2 charm up a notch with revamped visuals and audio. There’s also this cross-save thing with PS3 and PS Vita. Not that I understand how it all works, but hey, it’s there.
Review-wise, the originals scored big on Metacritic — a 92 and 85, to be precise. Even the remaster held its ground at 85. Final Fantasy X particularly gets a thumbs-up as one of the series’ top dogs. Anyway, if JRPGs are your jam, and the price tag tempts you like it does to me, maybe give it a whirl.
