Why can't I play the same PC games on my 360 bro

But it is the same game, the same character, same server. It is stupid that i cant log in on ffxiv pc client if i buy already the game.

The server infrastructure is the same, the code isn't. PC is based in one language, ps3 another.
If is that, then I'm calling sony and asking for my ps3 copy of darksouls since I bought the pc version on steam!

So...you're basically wanting to download the PC version for free. That would mean everyone can download the PC version for free and as long as they have an account, they can play.

You acting like this is the only game that dose that. Loads of games do it, if you buy the PS3 version of let's say Assassins Creed II doesn't mean you can play it on the X-box nor should they give you one for free. Also it costs them money to make Disc, send it off, packaging etc. It's just how things are.

I already have the pc client because my wife buy it for pc but if i try to log in on her pc i cant beacuse it ask me to buy another game of one account that already pay. I know that in other games this will be stupid. But this is a MMO and SE let to do this on FFXI, you can buy game and expansions for PS2 and can log your account on friend's pc client.

Maybe that's the case but it's not uncommon in this day and age for video games to try and make more money. Certain games won't even let you play split screen co-op anymore. You have to buy 2 copies of the game if you want to play together with a friend.

You might as well get use to it. These are some of the things developers are coming up with to limit game sharing and piracy. Your game is linked to your service account. They know you are trying to access your account through different platform than you have registered.

ok i understand all you are saying and it will be valid if the game off one payment like guild wars... but you have to pay every month. In this case game sharing and piracy it out of terms ._.
