Quick question....who really wants this game?

Cuz the consensus from E3 was "Meh" when they announced it as an MMO.

Are you joking? The sony fans agreed that it was MeGaTON! Everyone shat their pants of excitement and anticipation. 


Only reason you are saying that is because when the 360 announces it you can act like its a stolen exclusive and huge megaton. The general consensus was "meh" but like I said "just wait till 360 gets it." I foresee a lot of people like you shouting and rejoicing.

I agree full heartily.

the only thing i care about with ff14 right now is... have they confirmed subscribtion yet?

^ nope you're generalizing. But you're not entirely incorrect. Some x360 fans, and myself, will rejoice once it is announced on the x360, not because the game is great and we want it (I think MMO are stupid) but because we want x360 to top the ps3 this generation...and good news for x360 = bad news for competition.... right?

Similar to what happened with MGS:Rising. Some of the same folks that downplayed MGS4, rejoiced over the announcement of the new Metal Gear coming to 360, especially when it was still rumored as 360 exclusive. I know what you mean, although this happens from other fans as well. Just like when some PlayStation fans downplayed Bioshock, then suddenly when it's announced for the PS3, they couldn't wait to play it.

It's the nature of gamers, if you can't get/don't have the system that a particular game is coming to, you're more likely to downplay since you can't/choose not to experience it on the opposing console.

Personally i hope it does make its way over to 360, I like the in-game music feature the 360 has and i use it basically everytime i play my xbox. Something tells me the developers won't add the in game music feature on the PS3 version because developers rarely do :/.

MMO + console = Fail. MMO's need keyboard.

Maybe the PS3 version will support it, remember Unreal Tournament III? The PS3 is capabale of keyboard/mouse support if the developer chooses to impement it.


Yeah. With keyboard support it is playble on PS3 but X360 is different story...

@KillerMan

And what about Phantasy Star Online?...They worked well and was a run away hit on DC...Don't if the Universe did well....Oh and by the way...360 already has MMO's...Including FFXI....

@ CGI

So is the Xbox 360...And FFXI already on there..it should be a breeze...
