They will likely change their tune. X360 needs more MMO games the library is a barren wasteland right now for MMO players.

Yeah, the 360 may be a barren wasteland for MMO's (though which console isn't?) but does that really matter?

This gets into what I was saying above-- people that are actually serious about FFXIV aren't likely to play it on a console.  They're going to play it on a PC because it will be better in just about every way.

I'm not talking about graphics, I'm talking about controls and function.  If FFXIV is anything like FFXI, then you have to be awesome at your job or else people won't play with you.  FFXI is nothing like WoW, the game is actually pretty harsh.

Console users with little money or without a decent PC will be happy to know that there is a console port. That is reason enough, methinks.

As for being serious about the game, there's no difference control-wise between the console and pc version if both can be played with a keyboard&mouse, no?
