music is great...
rss feed finally is nice too >.>

[Shuichi]

Loved the music, that is definitely Nobou (one of the main reasons I have hope for XIV). Those screens look great, looking at that Lala pirate with the eye-patch has pretty much convinced me to roll Lalafell.

That taru with the eye-patch looks so cute. Mini Kadaj (FF7:AC) cause of the hair.

Glad to see that Robber Crab was shopped. lol >.>;

[Lovian]

That Taru Corsair is fucking adorable.

Ugh I'm so excited for this game, I need it to come out NOW.

where is that? totally can't see it

[dantaro]

just get a ps3

Thats like saying "Just get a PS2 for FFXI"

[Hyan]

Not really. I doubt the difference can be that big at any time.

Not 100% sure about "Oravania" and "Blooderine Sea", but it's the best I can make out right now. But yeah, seems to be the actual map of Eorzea.

Gridania I guess.

Child please.

Also that new music is fantastic.

But you can't have windower on PS3, clearly that will be a flaw to hard to overcome for most players

i really don't think ps3's specs will be a limitation for the game this time, and i'd rather play the game on my 52' hdtv

Who says you can't play on PC and a 52" HDTV? I do it every day.

i imagine getting a ps3 would be less cost and less trouble than upgrading an older pc, with more benefits, is all i'm saying ;p

There really isn't a difference right now. Yes, it would just be a cost issue. I'm growing tired of my xbox catalog and really want to get a PS3. Just thinking though... I could get a PS3 and a new bad ass flat screen, but I could very well upgrade my computer with that money, too. Being only interested in upgrading your computer for FFXIV though... I would say get the PS3 definitely. It's kind of silly to spend so much to upgrade a computer for a single game.

Depends on how smart you are about it. Since it can come out to the same price (granted your PC doesn't need 7 years worth of upgrades >.>) with the PC having long term benefits over the PS3.

And eventually, even if not right away, there will be some form of third-party programs/enhancements that you'll wish you could use. There always is.

In the FFXI testing/beta server stuff, what was the name of the hume female that wore oplaine (even in dynamis testing before it was released)? Was it Destiny? In the FFXIV pics it shows a male hume named Destiny and for some reason it ringed a bell.

[GRT]

Yep. I saw it and was like WTF DESTINY WENT TO THAILAND??

[SephYuyX]

Awesome, thought so, I got a good chuckle when I saw that name. Havent seen it in years and brought back some good memories.

Real mother fuckin talk. I played FFXI perfectly fine w/o out windower or any kind of extra shit and I expect to do the same, I do plan on building a PC however later next year, for FFXIV and Old republic as well as other games, I very seriously doubt there will be a huge difference between the two like XI had with the PS2. Also what GRT said, I like loungin on my couch or bed and playing on my 52" HDTV's.

People are highly underselling the PS3's capabilities, its not an xbax or a PS2, people need to take the time and look at the exclusvies like Uncharted 2, GOW 3 etc and look how fantastic they look. I think the PS3 version is going to be fantastic.

I think in game voice chat would be awesome too, not likely but awesome, but eh, can always use vent.

Id say 'vent onry' if this wasn't a multi-platform game. That in-game chat is gonna be necessary for ps3 players talking to windows players.
