Welcome to The Spoony One's glorious review of Final Fantasy X!
Originally, there were severe problems with the aspect ratio being all over the place; most of the time it was about 2,1:1, when it should be about 1,4:1. That's stretching it by 50%, and that's awful!
Since I was going to rewatch it before the FFX-2 review (which is only 30% stretched, but fixed also) I decided to fix this once and for all. So here you too can watch the version as it was meant to be, and not as someone's mom who just bought a widescreen TV and has it permanently set to stretch as she watches her fullscreen VHS tapes.

However, as awesome as it is to watch Spoony talk over footage of a bad game and not have the bad game footage badly stretched, there are some problems:
My editing program decided to lie and delete one frame at the end of every cut I made, so every cut the audio goes about 30ms ahead of the footage. To compensate, I squashed the audio, but since that's only on average correct, the audio is sometimes slightly ahead and slightly behind. It shouldn't be more than 100-200ms though, which is just about the most you can have before it's intolerable.
The only files I had to work with, where the very compressed version playing on blip, which had bad resolution and far too much compression. And since it has then been compressed for upload (albeit loosly) and then by YouTube again, the quality is not even remotely HD, as it originally was.
Lastly, since I've squashed the video back to its original shape, it also squashes any overlays, such as Ass Counts and Yuna Kidnapping Counts. The text is still perfectly legible though, and wherever there's been any picture-in-picture, I've corrected those for both to have the correct aspect ratio.

Lastly, visit http://www.spoonyexperiment.com/ and support The Spoony One, rather than some fan who's far too obsessed with aspect ratios and with too much time on his hands.
He has plenty more videos where this came from!
(And relatively few of them have horrible aspect ratio problems!)
