Xbox360: FFXI, cmon.. whos playin ^ ^

[Kaine (AoD)]

I want EVERYONES view on this lol or anyone that plays the game, im a total addict to the standard RPGs but have NEVER been interested in an online version as imo they should have kept to single player RPG and not go on to MMO.

I had looked in to the online FF for ps2 but didnt catch myself to much really, so anyone that played the game have any thoughts?

CarlH already told me what he thinks ^ ^ doesnt sound to good at the moment but maybe someone whos played more of the FF series can give a more in depth description about the game ^ ^

I will sort out getting onto this for the weekend. Having played FF 7,8, part of 9 and some of 10 I will report back.

It's great, enthralling. There should be a review up by the end of today or the weekend which should give you a further insight.

If you are new it's really confusing to begin with, but check a few of the official websites out for tips for beginners.

It's an amazing world full of interesting people.

Tell me if you get it, I don't mind showing you about (get yourself a keyboard though!)

I am installing this now, its a real pain in the pooper. Luckinly my keyboard from my PC is USB!

Edit: OMG! this does take forever.

[menthel]

It really stinks. Slow, clumsy and dull. WOW is much better and quite frankly this is being deleted from my hard drive! Oh well.....

[Carlh]

Thats funny cos that was exactly what I said to Kaine last week

Shame really as the FF games have always been good just this one feels very clumsy and the grafixs during gameplay seem unfinished and rough.

I think Ill wait for a proper Xbox360 RPG rather than a PS2 port like this.
