final fantasy xi expansion being excluded from playstion2 users

[xiozen]

they went through this, there just aren't enough PS2 players left to warrant them translating it to the US PS2, they arent going to change their stance on that, if they were they would have already

if you have a PC that can get on these forums chances are unless its absolutely terrible it will run FFXI and there are plenty of PS2 style controllers out there you can use with the PC, consider this as an option

and don't get too upset when this post of yours gets ignored by SE, I'm sure they will look at it and go "oh this topic again, some people just don't get it"

They already told us, well in advance of the release, that it would not be available on the Playstation 2 system--so to see an entire post devoted to venting over something that was already clarified from the start is a waste of space IMHO.

Just sayin'.

Were it not for the fact FFXI runs well on Boot Camped Windows 8, I'd have had to abandon FFXI entirely as I don't trust the XBox360 structurally (see: Red Ring of Death) or any non-MacBook for various reasons. The half-measure S-E took toward PS2 was about as gutless as I've seen in a game company and left a lot of American PS2 players high and dry. There's no excuse for that, no matter the financial analysis.

no more gutless than what sony themselves did regarding the HDD addon for the US, which was practically abandoned by them from the start
