News: Square Enix releases a new video to showcase how these games have changed during the transition from PS2 to PS3.

With Gamescom in full swing Square Enix has released a new trailer for the upcoming Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster. This is another video comparing the HD version with the SD version that came out on the PS2.

In Final Fantasy X, the main character, Tidus, is a star player of blitzball, a full contact sport. After miraculously surviving the destruction of his homeland, he awakens among ruins and thereafter meets a young woman named Yuna. As a summoner, Yuna must travel to distant temples and learn the secret art of summoning aeons -powerful spirits of yore, in order to defeat "Sin." Tidus learns that a thousand years in the past, mankind lived in spectacular cities and relied on machines for everything, until Sin suddenly appeared and destroyed all civilization. Now, people shun technology, and no one knows when "Sin" will strike again.

In Final Fantasy X-2 the game's story follows the character Yuna from Final Fantasy X as she seeks to resolve political conflicts in the fictional world of Spira before it leads to war. Along the way you meet new friends and reunite with others. All the while Yuna is hoping that she will run into someone that she hasn’t seen since the events of Final Fantasy X.
