| Loud_Hot_White_Box said: That's right. A new single player FF game would not hit, under any circumstances, before 2012. Who knows if another single player FF will even hit this gen, given that Versus still has to come out after XIII? FF XIV, the online game, got its start much earlier, as another game. At some point, it was decided it would be FF XIV. The online aspect is the only thing allowing it to be released when it is. The boost it brings to any console getting it in 2010 will be larger than the boost the console would receive from a single player game 2 years later. Put another way, Sony or Microsoft would rather have the former than the latter, because the former will benefit them more.

FFXIV was first announced, as a project under the code named "rapture", 4 years ago. the same team who made FFXI is the same team doing FFXIV. so it was pretty much going to be another FF just didnt know which number.
anywho, i have to disagree. the boost of sony getting FFXIV is not going to be all that big. maybe a few thousand consoles extra will be pushed WW but other than that its just another game sony can say "hey, the 360 doesnt have this. buy me" so imo a single player FF coming in 2012 would be bigger than a 2010 mmo
