PAST: The engine demo (seen here) was first revealed when SE annouced support for the 360 followed by the release of FFXI. They claimed that they would of released FFXI for the Xbox1 if the HDD was larger.

PRESENT: Tretton (Sony exec) says its a PS3 exclusive after revealing the trailer. Although its also coming out for PC - a platform preceived as compatible with 360 hardware.

FUTURE: So considering the circumstances, do you think FFXIV will release on 360?

I personally, could see a 360 version in 2011. . .

- on a side note, I've played FFXI on PS2 for 1 year and PC for 3 years. I hate console MMO players. If you are remotely interested in this game, get the PC version. . .

If FFXIII is on the 360, I don't see why XIV wouldn't be.

It's an MMORPG, so the wider the audience, the better for Square.

Very possible. The thing with MMOs on X360 is that (im just assuming here, never bought an MMO for X360) you would have to pay for XBL AND the monthly fee of the MMO on top, and that might put some people off. But If FFXIV seems popular enough, I think we could expect and X360 version real soon. Im guessing the only reason SE went with PS3 is because FFXI did exceptionally well on PS2. I hope it comes to X360 though, we need all the players we can get in an MMO :D

He said it was a console exclusive.

But it'll probably show up on 360..maybe. I don't know how many FFXI 360 users are out there.

The reason it's a sony exclusive right now might be because XI, their first mmorpg, wasn't really successful on the 360, was it?

xbox 360 users are already paying a fee to use live.
are they willing to pay... another fee just to play an MMORPG?
this is the fundamental question that square enix is asking themselves.

I don't know, but any of the true FFXI players worth their salt will be buying a PS3 shortly, I'm sure. This is a big deal for Sony, if they can manage to actually hold onto console exclusivity (IE, keep the game away from MS's moneybags and blank checks) this time around. But the truth of the matter is, no one really knows yet just how "exclusive" "exclusive" really is.

FF14 is an MMORPG, so it won't look anywhere near as good as FF13. The 360's power won't be a problem.

I don't care if it does. I'm more concerned about a monthly fee. I highly doubt it will be free, but I'm still holding out hope. That's the only way I buy the game is if there is no monthly fee.

Oh pfft, 360 and PS3 are roughly equal and the 360 is superior in some areas.

it's the ps3/pc combo because it will sell great on ps3 in japan, sell great on PC in America/europe but the 360 is sort of middle ground, it would do very average in both japan and euro/america so no point on putting it on 360 at this point.

Is that confirmed or are you just guessing? I'm not doubting you, but I'd rather just found out now that it is not free so I can stop worrying about this game.

bluray i would hate for an mmo to fill a bluray it would be so slow loading my gosh, the cell has no baring i highly doubt there are gonna be any large physics scenes in an mmorpg.

as for the 360 version of the game not selling well we have no info on this, someone in a past thread tried to make out there were platform specific stats for ps2, pc, and 360 users in the vanadiel census but i went through vanadiel census 1-8 and none of them mentioned platform specific stats so we dont know how many sales the game got or users on 360.

Oh i am? you mean the point wasn't.....Hakanakumono said that both systems are equal and in some areas the 360 is superior, he didn't say the ps3 is inferior in some areas or it was superior in some areas he simply said the 360 was superior in some areas. that statemnet in and of it self says that the ps3 is either equal in other areas or superior it does not say its inferior in other areas he simply didn't say the ps3 was superior in other areas since its self evident, common sense and by his words evident. ermacness corrected him without much cause since he simply didn't state ps3 was superior in some areas. so yes that was the point.

no his point was the two statements directly clash, invalidating both of them....there can only be 1 console that looks better

umm...no....since there are many concepts of what looks good, poly counts, textures, lighting...etc so there CAN be multiple better looking things, as for that i should correct you without cause now, the 360 LOOKS better, its not a glossy dust magnet monster like the ps3. (since you said only one console looks better instead of correctly saying one console is graphically more powerful* and heres a tip the gpu in the 360 is more powerful then the ps3 so in pure graphics its better at making great graphics.

Oh and i should add you never mentioned graphics in your first post you mentioned the 360 held it back from what its capable of, hakana stated the 360 and ps3 are equal....ect so yes at no point were graphics mentioned.

The two are hardly correlated. In fact they have nothing to do with one another. Is FF13 versus coming to 360 because FF13 is? I think the game will probably end up on 360, because FFXI is, not because FF13 is.

theres alot of correlation. We dont know or what exact 360 users on FF11 but if its alot then its a given the next mmo will come to 360. If ff13 sells well then versus will come as well. Square isn't going to look at a system thats geting it lots of sales and pass up other games in the franchise to sell as well.

He didn't say console exclusive, he said "Only console you will be able to play it on in 2010" So it could be released for xbox 360 in 2011

I see how it could, since how LIVE has a larger install base than PSN which is essential for an MMO, but I don't want lemmings saying "lol all ur FFXIV blngs 2 us pwnt" if it is announced.

Dude every MMO was deserted after WoW. Pre WoW, FFXI was insanely popular and the fact that its still alive and kicking today unlike other MMOs (Age of Conan, Tabula Rasa) speaks for itself. :D

Well they already tried an MMO on the 360 and not the PS3, seems weird that they skip the 360 this time without a good reason.

or maybe its a plan by SE to get serious money by MS! :P

no one said it was an exclusive, just that on launch you can only play it on ps3. IMO a stupid idea for both parties. PC gamers are where the mmo-ers are at. It's not going to sell ps3's, and being on the ps3 isn't going to do that game any favors. For the question though, it might, it might not. Do people really care? How hard will it be to run that game on PC? How many people would actually rather play that game than one of the plethora of other mmo's, particularly blade and soul which looks much prettier.

Hell yeah. Simply enough, XI andXIII are on 360. If XIII generates enough sales, thenXIV is a shoe-in.

I would say, don't count on it, but it is not outside the realm of possibility. The main thing to consider is that another platform means another code base that needs to be maintained constantly. FFXI, when it was ported over, was pretty mature by that point so that didn't matter as much, but FFXIV is going to be at the opposite end (very immature meaning lots of niggling issues). I'd say that 360's successor is a more likely possibility, but we don't yet know when it will come out.
