    They have stated that they are banking on PS3 sales (esp. in Japan) to revive this game. I suspect the "flood" will come when the PS3 beta is ready around mid-November.

    Something that both the XI and XIV "communities" always seem to forget is that both of these games were designed and intended for console gamers from the very start. They "added" PC support to boost NA sales.

    It's all about the PS3 so "please be patient and look forward to that".

    This seems to be the truth. Only heavy new sales will be for the PS3. Most PC players will be the returning die-hard's and they (we) will get the release for free.

    SE has to reclaim some of their entire investment. The investment for 1.0, the free period, the ongoing maintenance and the minor new content we have received. ARR is a bet by SE that PS3 sales will be good.
