    On second thought, I'll do it too.

    Dear SE,
    Please stop support for PS2. It's holding the game back from meeting modern gaming standards.
    I've been playing on PS2 since just after JP launch. I've been active on forums since, and I expect people know I use the platform. It's never been a big secret. I gained access to PC in 2007 to be able to run it, but it's always had some stability issues with either not crashing, or not disconnecting from the internet. PS2 has allowed me to do events I don't want to disconnect in the middle of. Also, being an NA user doesn't matter much when JP has the majority of the population using the platform, and they've stopped releasing expansions outside that region for the platform. The data files being the same for all regions just means that a file migration is the simple fix.

    Also, my PC does so many other jobs, sometimes I need the processing power for something, like conversion of a batch of video discs I bought and want to consolidate into my searchable network library, and running a conversion batch of disc to AVI/MKV file makes FFXI run poorly. It's also the file server for the family, so too much drive access slows down the game. My email and IM are also constantly running for work. It's nice to have a dedicated platform, which is what my PS2 serves.

    Good post, but I think I agree with Catmato. What kind of a jerk are you that you use a video game console to play a video game?
