More trivia except this time it is on FFX:
Due to the fact that Final Fantasy X is the first game in the series to have spoken dialogue by all the main and certain secondary characters, The principal hero,(default name Tidus) is never actually referred to by name by any of them; this is mostly due to the fact that the player is allowed to change his name at the beginning. In the pre-voice games, the hero's name merely appeared as text to be inserted into dialogues where necessary.
Some of the half-buried objects in the desert resemble pod racer engines from Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999).
The logo that appears before before the opening titles (with the caption "Final Fantasy X Project 1999-2002"), can also be seen as a tattoo on Jecht, and on several pieces of clothing that Tidus wears.
The Aeons in the game are drawn from the Gnostic religion.
In the Japanese Ryukyu dialect, Tidus means "sun", Wakka means "water", and Yuna means "moon, flower".
When the party arrives at the city of Luca, the music playing in the background is "Brahne Appears - The Play Begins", which was the opening theme to the play "I Want to Be Your Canary" performed by Zidane's group Tantalus in Final Fantasy IX.
It pre-sold a million copies in Japan in a record breaking 17 days.
Final Fantasy X is the first numbered Final Fantasy game to feature a musical score that is not completely credited to Nobuo Uematsu, who has written the music for Final Fantasy since it's inception.
Final Fantasy X is also the first numbered Final Fantasy game that does not include as part of it's official soundtrack the "Prologue" song, first heard in Final Fantasy I when the party crossed the bridge north of Coneria for the first time.
