actually its quite convenient. FFXI didn't allow you to run other programes in the background in the past..so I don't know if you can use VENT
With 360 you can use XBL party chat to talk to your party members
This is really needed in areas of Nyzul Tower runs and assault/beseiged and any boss fights rather than having to type everything up because while you are fighting everything that you do, enemy hits, party effects etc just scroll up the party chat so its really easy to miss what the party has typed..or able to type fast and you need to do a lot of customisation with chat filters. plus FFXI feels more natural with a joypad since you dont use mouse at all.
