The only console MMO that I played in which you could use in-game voice-chat was Phantasy Star Universe on Xbox360 and it was really chaotic. We usually only played through the "Party Chat" which is a great feature but, unfortunately, it's not n PS3, you couldn't talk to PC players anyway and you needed to have all people in your "Friendlist" to invite them in the Party Chat.

Another reason for not including it in the game is that there is few MMORPGs with that feature. I guess that it must be hard to control the in-out of partys of 1000 players at the same time.

So, for all those reasons, I doubt your wish will become true. Mumble, Vent, TeamSpeak, Skype and a few others are the third-party voice chat software you are looking for. Also, if you plan on getting FFXIV on PS3, I suggest buying a USB keyboard if you don't already have one. It is necessary (even if voice-chat would be incorporated in the game)
