no not in any significant way at all.....if someone is going to go out of their way and buy a whole new system in order to play XIV why wouldn't they just go upgrade their PC since they can do it for cheaper and the game will be better on PC anyways? sure it might sell a few thousand systems but nothing worth getting all worked up on, an online FF is far from a killer app in terms of moving hardware, the game does look great though. |
It cost me 300 bucks worth graphic cards, a $150 motherboard, $100 chip and another $100 on ddr3 to play at high settings @1920x1200. It's not like you can 'upgrade' an old pentium iv to a full-fledged gaming machine.. most machines just deserve to get tossed into the garbage bin, they're not worth upgrading.
I'm sure it will play 'better' on pc, but it certainly isn't cheaper, except if you aim for minimum specs, and then you'll probably be better off with the console version.
If you don't have a decent pc, the best option is to buy a ps3 (to play this game anyway).
