PS3 limitations?

[Alhanelem]

Little bit nervous about this.

a friend told me that SE has admitted that there WILL be PS3 limitations on FFXIV development

I'm not surprised because PS3 is ancient, 8 year old hardware

what do you guys think the PS3 limitations are?? storage space, area sizes?

somewhat related: why are they releasing FFXIV on PS3 when the console is already out of date? isn't the plan to make FFXIV last a long time? how's that going to work on an out of date console?

Discuss

you know a troll when they end their post with "Discuss" . This is always stupid because discussion will occur naturally if people are interested- you don't need to tell them to do it.

Taking the bait aside, they are specially designing the PS3 client to avoid the limitations that caused problems for XI on the PS2. The gamepad UI streamlines some information to reduce memory usage, for instance (Instead of the visual display of your inventory, it just shows a number for each bag). I think SE is going into this knowing what happened with XI and avoiding it being an issue.
