    FFXI featured in Guiness book of world records twice. Crappy pics inside.

    Sorry for the crap quality. Blame my new iPhone (more likely my inability to take pics).

    Toughest enemy in a Final Fantasy game
    Game: Final Fantasy XI
    Publisher: Square Enix
    Until September 2008, the most powerful enemy in a Final Fantasy game was the Pandemonium Warden®, a shape-changing villain in Final Fantasy XI. The monster proved too powerful for most players to defeat and Square Enix released a game update that significantly reduced the beast's abilities.

    First RPG to prompt a change in State law
    Game: Final Fantasy XI
    Publisher: Square Enix
    When Alan Edwards of Illinois, USA, tried to cancel his Final Fantasy XI account, he soon found that there was nowhere online to allow him to do so. (LOL) This prompted his parents, Frank and Linda, to call on their friend State Representative Raymond Paul, who introduced a successful bill that forces all internet gaming companies to provide a method of online cancellation for residents of the state of Illinois.

    Yeah, I mean how is PW the most difficult out of all the FF games? I got stuck on that Whelk snail thing in FFVI, man, couldn't get past it for over 30 hours until I realized you didn't have to target the shell.
    Maybe they meant "toughest monster in an MMO" but then it should have been Bubbly Bernie.

    I also see "First RPG to feature..." and "Super Mario RPG". Feature what? That game was great.

    This might be applicable! I'd like to see Square hire some economists to their design team. (They won't hire me but it's worth a shot).

    Think I've heard of guilds holding/fighting AV for "days" with lv1 mule rotation just to keep it up.

    I still remember the good ol fafnir days where you can mpk with spiders/malboro.. and fought over him for hours... ah the memories... all 24+ hours of it

    I'd say AV killing everyone so they have to sac hold it for over a day is "stronger" than Pandy. BtL would have won if they hadn't collapsed from playing in top form for so long.

    Still, using "duration of fight" as the qualifying characteristic for "strongest" is kind of silly. PW is certainly tough but arguably it isn't "Toughest enemy in a Final Fantasy game".

    I think Bordem would win toughest enemy if you can consider bordem an enemy.

    Do they really think Pandemonium Warden is the toughest 'boss' of any MMORPG? I don't know much about it, but thinking of the sheer amount of people in conjunction with the amount of time it took, wasn't Everquest's "Sleeper" much more ridiculous?

    edit: ok I made assumption that this was less retarded than it was... "toughest final fantasy monster?" what the fuck kind of record is that?

    Every time I hear "Guinness book of world etc." I wonder if the St. James' Gate guys still send their brewery managers out to get in arguments over "what is the most _____" but then remember they're not allowed to publish records related to alcohol.
