We don't need another MMORPG - the consoles have enough!!! Oh.. wait a sec!

All this hate for the new FF stinks of fanboy fear.

This is a genre that has not yet had an outing on any of the current gen consoles.. and to top it off.. its a FINAL FANTASY!!! And now you guys are saying no thanks...

Seriously... this is exciting stuff. The last online FF was amazing...

Because MMOs belong on PC.

I was looking forward to a White Knight Chronicles showing but this... totally unexpected. Biggest surprise (game wise) this E3.

Obviously we all know the biggest over all surprise was the NATAL.

How? It had been leaked. FFXIV wasn't.

[QUOTE="thetruespin"]I would understand the hate if we were drowning on MMORPGs.. but there is not a single one available on consoles... and if they can get the interface down, this could be amazing.. I mean, everyone loves ONLINE multiplayer... everyone loves FINAL FANTASY... and then you combine the two things we gamers love and somehow we get FAIL?? Seriously???PC360Wii

Can't you play a few MMOG on the 360 already, one being the FF MMOG that's currently out? :| Fairly sure you can. Fairly sure barly anyone does it either.

It's also not exclusive why hype it? You trash talk 360 owners for hyping pc/360 games. Funny how it works when the shoes on the other foot.

Casuals go play wow, Hardcore gamers with skill play FFXI

We didn't know the name or any specifics, but we did know it was an Eyetoy like controller.

Figured i was right. Yeah, we got a FF MMOG first. Quick, hype it to the moon and act like it's something special@

FFXIIII is on PC. Not exclusive. And FFXI blew. If you want to play an MMO, then you play the best, WoW. Why would I pay a monthly fee to waste my life playing an inferior MMO?

Don't kid yourself, the last FF online was a horrible game.

ok why are cows hyping this when i keep reading comments about it also being on the PC? if they start hyping this as an ps3 exclusive then the lemmings are going to be able to take alot of great titles that are on both the 360/PC and call them exclusives.lawlessx

Yup. Add The Agency and other MMO's to that. All be be hitting PC through SOE. And most likely launch on PC first, just like Free Realms.

Cows attack lems for trying to do it, then they run around and try to proclaim PC/PS3 titles as exclusives. Quite ironic.

Yeah except if you did play FFXI's main game you'd realize that 1) It did have a lot of story content and plenty of lore and dialogue to back it up...2) It was a throwback to classic FF, you'd know that if you looked at the art design, races, and class options/growth 3) The hardcore nature of the game was also reminiscent of classic NES FF in that you actually worked hard for your upgrades and spells, and that you were never truly Overpowered because there was always a tough fight waiting

Face it, your experience in MMOs being from WoW does not justify your opinion of FF Online, only recently has WoW actually developed the kind of narrative that FF Online always had with Wrath's story improvements and phased questing etc.

For those of us who enjoyed working hard with a couple friends to become truly heroic characters, XI was a blast and worth the FF numeral title, I'm done with XI right now but don't regret a second of it... WoW's definition of heroic is a fail pug AoEing down packs of crap without skill....Ulduar is the first time I actually had fun in a Wrath raid...

Lems have sour grapes for FFXIV, and cows have sour grapes for MGS:R. This is the way SW works.

[QUOTE="PC360Wii"] What do you expect? most people here value the cutscenes/story over the actual gameplay and depth/difficulty of RPGs, shrugging MMO's off because they focus on the latter more ;D , and take longer. Cant believe anyone complains about PLAYING more of a game over a longer peroid of time compared to quick bursts of damn videos.staley6565

Do console people even want MMOs?

The cost of making a MMO is huge and most fail anyway.

Id much prefer good singleplayer games myself.
