FFIX is over ten years old guys. It was the first MMO on consoles and a PC version was already announced.

And MMOs weren't quite as popular back then.

They really can't be compared.

First MMO on consoles? Nope.avi.

That's what wikipedia says. They do mention Phantasy Star Online happened first but it wasn't open-world so it's essentially not a real MMO.

So to be a Massively Multiplayer Online game, it needs to be Open World? Sorry, but i dont think so.

Also, Wikipedia: "The popularity of MMOGs was mostly restricted to the computer game market until the sixth-generation consoles, with the launch of Phantasy Star Online on Dreamcast and the emergence and growth of online service Xbox Live. There have been a number of console MMOGs, including EverQuest Online Adventures (PlayStation 2), and the multiconsole Final Fantasy XI. On PCs, the MMOG market has always been dominated by successful fantasy MMORPGs."
