    I remember an interview from a while ago and they basically said that the game was too difficult for them to port from PS2 to PS3 because of how different the technology was. They said it would have been like developing a whole new game which is why they decided to invest their time into actually developing a whole new game thus FFXIV came to be.

    I don't remember them saying that... I DO remember them saying they were talking to a guy at sony about it. And he quit... and apparently they didn't follow up on it.

    Also, Tanaka states that the game would 100% have to be on a disc because there is currently no emulation for PS3 games on PS3. If they were to bring FFXI over to PS3 as a digital download, they'd have to redo quite a bit of recoding I think.

    This would be RAD. But I really doubt SE would ever do something like this
