Possibilities of FFXI on all consoles.

http://www.planetgamecube.com/news.cfm?action=item&id=1810

If this feeling continues, the FF series will likely appear on the X-Box. Nintendo on the other hand, needs to be happy with what they can get, instead of "To develop games on the GC, you must give us your pants, your house, your wife, and your children."

oh course it will end up on all consoles. This way, it wil make the FF online community bigger which would lead to more players. Imagine if Phantasy Star Online was multi-platform!

FFXI is going to appear on other consoles, but not the series. Thats way too big of an assumption.

Well, if not the FF series, then maybe Square\'s other games?? The Chrono or Xeno series aren\'t under any exclusivity contract.

i dont know, sony had kept a tight hold on square ever scince they got them...  it is a huge advantage on sony\'s part, and a huge thing for us psx2central posters to use in the upcoming debate, (check the main forum)

Must not be that tight, XB and maybe GC are getting FFXI, which is called such because it\'s in the series. If it wasn\'t in the series, it would be called FF Online. It\'s not. It\'s XI. XB now will have FF. Deal with it people....

It\'s funny, everyone who\'s so sure that X, XII, etc will always stay PS2 exclusive are equally sure DoA3 and every Sega XB game and Dino Crisis 3 will have all exclusivity thrown out the window by these companies, and that PS2 will get em.... quite funny....

ZzzzZ.. old news.

How many wishful-thinking topics are there going to be about FF games appearing on the xbox?

XI yes, online-only, pay-to-play, more users = more money.

That would apply to any FF:

FFXII PS2 sales+XB sales+GC sales > FFXII PS2 sales

That would apply to any FF:

FFXII PS2 sales+XB sales+GC sales > FFXII PS2 sales

You\'re right. But this has always been the case with any Square game, and they always decided to stick to one console. I suppose the profits they will earn from the PS2 alone is sufficient enough for them.

FFXI howerver needs to gather the most users as possible to stay alive. An online game w/o many players = a dead game.

Hey, personally I don\'t care where FF ends up. I\'ll get it wherever it goes. No biggie.

yes, it is a smart buisness move, no doubt,  but although they probably will do it, i dont know where people think that they will go x box.. no where in taht article does it say taht they are even thoinking about the x box, they never mentioned it, sure they mentioned cross platform, but when asked which consoles they would do it with they never said x box at all.......

so , you just think that they will put it on x box? hm....

It\'s quite funny how you make assumptions like that. The only reason that square brought it to other systems is because they were worried that the PS2 alone couldn\'t meet a good enough profit for their online game. Simple as that.

I haven\'t heard anybody say that DOA3 or DC3 will have exclusivity "thrown out the window." It\'s pretty obvious you want to start a flame.

FFXI is an unusual one, especially since FFXII won\'t be online.  I think that it may be too much work to write something for all of the consoles.  I think the future of the series depends on the ease of transition between the consoles of FFXI.

Falcon4, the site in your sig is my dream come true. Any idea how you can join the teams??

:rolleyes: Whatever... Your 1-Admitting Sony alone isn\'t enough, and 2-Not paying attention to what others have said apparently. Any thread about DoA3 or Segas X games has had at least one GC fanboy and one PS2 fanboy jump in with \'Oh, those will end up being ported... they won\'t stay exclusive\'... so my point was valid.

Yes, I sure am. Thats why I made that long thread of putting XBOX in front of PS2.

You haven\'t been here long enough to actually know someone like that.
