    ARR: Can PC players play on PS3 with this account?

    That's a question I want answered. My computer is ass. Well, maybe not but FFXIV lags horribly at points. And I use low settings. While I do use a 5 or 6 on character drawing thing I only do that so it doesn't look like shit.

    But ARR will be out for PS3 so... You think I would be able to use this account on the PS3 version? Like use the good on my account...?

    If not I'll be pissed as ARR will probably run even slower as it looks better. >.<

    if having a centralized account is anything to go on then, yes you can. the Square Enix account management works in many ways like a cut down PoL.

    you would still have to pay for the game disc though....that is unless you have a CFW PS3, then you could just torrent the game and install it to the PS3's HDD, then sign into your current account. thats 40 bucks in your pocket for the subcription.

    You'll be asked to log in, and your characters will be there.

    Should not be a problem at all, you'll have to purchase the PS3 game though so you have a client copy.

    That is incorrect.

    SE requires you to have a PS3 version registered on your account to play on PS3. SE answers the OPs question very clearly here. This came up before they they already told us if you want to play on multiple platforms you have to have a code registered for each one its not like FFXI where 1 code got you PC, PS2 and 360 access.

    So basically you can use your same characters on PC and PS3 however you have to have a code registered for each platform you want to play on with your SE account.

    Ah, didn't know they had that infomation up :P. So when you register the PS3 code, it's still on 1 account? and you can play FFXIV: ARR as you normally would? And you won't get billed twice?

    I remember reading before that you'll need both codes, but that just seems so strange to me. So I'm at my friends place, and I can't log in because mine is a PC account and his is a PS3? Maybe they are just hoping for a little extra cash from folks who will want to have access on both?

    it kinda makes sense because you kinda have to do the same with netflix i have net flix on 3 units ps3 3ds and wii and i had to register them all with netflix to be able to use the software for each unit

    I'm sure you can play on PS3 with the same account. But you need the PS3 client first.
