For those of us who still support the PS2 version of FFXI

On the current path (maintaining ps2 support): FFXI is doomed to die due to lack of expansion, especially with the aforementioned dwindling of players. At least with dropping it there is some hope. This is in no way an assumption.

I'm afraid that the extinction of the PS2 is inevitable.../sob... I tried XB360 and I hated it. couldn't get the PS3s to load POL so I'm saving my pennies to pickup a couple of PCs. Until they die, I'm PS2ing it lol

Everything dies. And, this may very well be S/E's business plan for FFXI. They may not want to make a significant investment in a game unless there is a high chance of a significant return. They already pulled a large number of the team from FFXI. They may have moved some back. But, I wouldn't hitch my financial star on an aging game.

FFXI is going to die with or with out PS2 supported.

PS2 is the toe tag, a cancer that is slowly eating away at the game, but there is hope. This malignant tumor is easily removed through modern science leaving room to heal and even promote new growth. We need not simply lie back and accept our fate. We can fight this. Together we are stronger then this malady, this affliction that has befallen what we all hold dear. Together. We can all see a brighter tomorrow.


Edit: So changing my sig. lol

That...was a bit far. Disapprove.

"let's all feel bad for holding back the rest of the FFXI community and go die in a Tsunami."

Hey now. None of that. While PS2 is a bad thing, what you just did was too.

except that i couldnt pay 700 bucks for a pc/laptop.. now if you told me i could get a pc/laptop that could run ffxi for 100 bucks then sure Id get right on it lol

if you live near a gamesstop i believe they sell xbox's for 100-150 bucks mm may need to buy a harddrive with it...but its worth it no need to spend 700 dollars on anything when you can cut that by 500 bucks at most...

thats a bit overboard dude....
