Isnt the xbox 360 version just a hi res ps2 port thats why it chugs when it hits 2700R. they should of just ported the pc version on the xbox even thou it dosent support a mouse

i would like to see a downloadable packet for the ps3

If only there was a way of making everyone happy!

I love the fact that all the different platforms can all play together, this is the only MMO that I play but am I right in thinking its pretty unique because of that? It'd be a shame to loose the cross-platform-ness for anything less than a massive overhaul of the game.

Do you understand how hard it is for ps2 users to play ffxi on the pc? I have 2 chars, my main is on the ps2 only use the pc char to PL, or too hold items. It is very difficult to go from playing with a controller to using the keyboard. I am not an xbox fan at all so i would not buy an xbox just for ffxi. I do have a ps3 but taking the time to put all the files onto the ps3 takes days. As of right now i dont have any problems playing on the ps2 but i am very concerned that i will.

Just use a pad with your PC? I started playing on Xbox and moved to PC w/gamepad and have felt no difference between the controller setup. Haven't looked back because of the superior PC graphics.

I have been playing the PC versions since it's release back in 03, and i never used a mouse/keyboard (except for typing of course)

it is not that hard to get a controller for PC and set it up in the config, hell I recommend this controller, it is for the PS3 but it works on PC and has to be one of the best controllers I have ever owned.

and they sell them at GameStop for $40

Heck, you can just use the PS2 controller you've got now. They have $5 USB adapters that let you plug your PS2 controller into your PC. This stuff isn't hard guys.

I agree SqEnix needs to come up with a way to beable to allow for a reinstall based off whatever circumstance.. even create a basic install that will allow you to connect FFXI sight through your ps2 and be able to download (buy if you didnt have an expansion registered prior) right off of the server
