PS2 FFXI was good, control wise, as long as you had a USB keyboard. If you had that, then it's as completely fine, albeit not as perfect as a PC, since you have to go scroll through menus instead of just clicking immediately but it's not that big of a deal.
Sony just has to make sure to properly make PS3 owners aware that they can use a USB keyboard, instead of buying the controller add on, or thinking the only way to type is through the on screen keyboard.
