We are long over due for a new boxed expansion pack. The add ons were nice but the content is no where as good as a real story telling expansion. The gap between the start and end of WOTG really disjointed that expansion to where I don't think I enjoyed it as much as I could have. As much as I loved the characters, it became and after thought.

Even on the Japanese forums they are asking for XI to have PS3 access, to get rid of the "Limitations".

The only foreseeable problem with a real expansion (other then PS2 worries) Is the strict budget they are probably on, dev team is divided between XI and XIV (abysseas team) and the cost for a tangible box set would cost them so much money. With the current failure of XIV, they are going to put as much time and effort into getting that in shape and making more sacrifices to XI as they can.

Hoping for the best, but looking at it from a business standpoint on a extra strict budget its going to be tough.
