Gotenmaru! You wasted your first forum post on a thread like this!? That's like giving your virginity to the hobo who lives in an abandoned car, because you just had the itch that day.

On a serious note, Yoshi have said that the current game engine was designed to be scalable to the whatever platform it plays on, because he was already aware of the limitations caused by the PS2 on FFXI. As some have already stated in this thread, you don't have to worry about the PS3 holding the game back.

There, took my turn on the dead horse, now to get out of here before the forum regulars return from Beta forum.
