This is because Microsoft needed help entering the Japanese market. They made the deal with Square to be excluded from the Gold membership in order to attract players from PS2 to 360 since PS3 wasn't an option minus a few gen one systems. You could be certain should Microsoft be able to pick up FFXIV that Gold will be required.

And that is why there was no XIV on the 360. Square wanted nothing to do with Microsoft's premium service and still don't because it's a big middle finger being waved in player's faces. Sega had to swallow that pill with PSO on the Xbox and PSU on the 360 because they don't have quite the same clout as Square. There was also Microsoft's demand that XI on the 360 be on it's own servers because of their dislike of Sony's consoles but, again, Square wasn't going to have it. I'm sure Microsoft would have wanted the same over XIV.
