FFX's voice acting was doomed from the start by all the characters being awful unlikeable whiners.

ffx's japanese voice acting is even worse than the english voice acting tbh you could tell that the writers have never written for voice-acting before and combined with their weird emphasis on getting the mouth movements exactly right and emphasizing the mouth movements every line is enunciated really weirdly and the voice actors clearly have no idea what to do with their material the ffx english dub is just a bunch of b-list actors not getting paid enough to care, but they sometimes stumble into decent lines. and the x-2 dub is pretty okay.

Yeah, FFX's voice acting is loving awful in Japanese. Tidus is terrible and there's a reason Yuna basically voices Yuna and nobody else, and the voice direction is just a mess

FFX's voice acting is a case of solid talent giving a solid job being directed terribly. This is a problem with Final Fantasy in general (also see- FFXIII, which like FFX had the voice direction in the US lead/heavily influenced by a non-native English speaker) where they get people giving characters great tone but the delivery comes off as stilted, insincere, or hollow. That said, FFX doubled-down on the bad direction by forcing the English actors to use the Japanese lip animations, leading to stuff like Yuna cramming the two-syllable 'okay' repeatedly into places where the one-syllable 'hai' used to be and it coming out more like a sneeze then an actual word.

I have low dub standards and I thought X was fine. Only Yuna really bothered me and she was mostly fine in X-2.

Apparently that wasn't just because of the mouth flaps, although that was one consideration; the engine was also written in such a way that all English audio lines had to be the exact same length as the Japanese ones or the game would crash.

In Training posted:THanks. Think it would work well on Remote Play? Ill probably get the PS4 version but play exclusively from bed/sofa in a different room if the control scheme is amenable to the Vita I found the controls a tiny bit finicky on the Vita sticks, but ymmv, and R2/L2/L3 aren't used for anything. R3 resets camera distance I guess, but I never really use it.

Version spoofing has been around since Henkaku v5 or so (couple weeks). You can connect to psn on 3.60. Now if you're in molecular shell or something it will show up as that on your friends list so there's always a chance sony could ban your system/psn account.

If people don't want a dedicated mobile gaming device, then why is the 3DS doing so well?

Because Nintendo has what market there is sewn up, also the 3DS has sold the least of any of their handhelds because the casual market had moved on to Candy Crush.

At the time they knew they had to be cheaper than a $200 iPod touch to make sales and quickly dropped the price and by 2013 had a $120 (regularly on sale for $99) model with Pokemon. Sony on the other hand kept their system $300 (after barebones 4gb memory and one game) up until the end of 2013, at which point they were getting ready for a $400 PS4.

sony is really bad at selling handhelds and I don't think they understand how to make them work financially the 3ds launch was also really bad but nintendo actually put a lot of effort into turning it around. sony didn't even ship launch vitas with the ability to play games (you needed a memory stick and those didn't ship with the system) and they barely did anything to fix that position

Some games worked without, if they had the optional save capacity on their game card. So like, two of them.
