"If you are a fan of the Final Fantasy series and welcome a nice change then this is the game for you..." Review by Chase Nguyen.
Cincinnati Enquirer
"The English voice-overs (a first for the series) are a mixed bag because some words are translated oddly and the voice acting from the Tidus character could be better. The music, on the other hand, is extremely well done." Review by Marc Saltzman.
Contactmusic.com - Final Fantasy X
The beginning of something never before seen in an RPG. Score 9.5/10
Game Revolution
"An excellent battle system and a level of visual artistry that sets a new mark for others to follow, and the long awaited addition of voices adds a dramatic element that's been missing forever...But with the steps forward come a few backward, like the inability to scene skip and the overly linear flow." Review by Johnny Liu with score.

GamePro
"A memorable, fantastic adventure that falls short in key areas that could have benefited from fine-tuning-namely control tweaks and unpolished graphics...The last must-have title of 2001." Review by Major Mike.
GameSpot
"The difference between FFX and other games is in the sheer scope and undeniably impressive production values. The ambitious design of FFX ultimately pervades in every aspect of the game." Review by Greg Kasavin with screen shots and overall score.

Gaming Age
"Great thing number two...is the ability to switch your characters in and out of battle at will. This is a tremendous step forward for the series as it fills in holes that we gamers had to come up with workarounds for previously." Review by Travis Dwyer.

TechTV
"Exquisite graphics and sublime gameplay...It's just a shame that not all the voice work is as good as it could have been. It's also too bad that the FF minigames have once again taken away any hope of fully appreciating the game's story." Review by Miguel Concepcion with slide show.
The Adrenaline Vault
"At its core, Final Fantasy X is just another chapter of the story we've all grown to love, but like a rare piece of literature, this story just gets better and better with each page you turn." Review by Mike Laidlaw with screen shots.

VGLN
"Final Fantasy has a magical touch in story presentation that has endured millions for so long. FFX is no different." Review by Avish Chandra.
