Welcome to Gaia! ::

Anyone here ever played/seen someone play Final Fantasy XI?

Ah!! I can't wait to get that game!! It's a pain in the arse to get all the supplies to play it on PS2, but only $20 for Windows Users.

I unfortunately haev Mac OS 9, and Knoppix (a version of Linux) so my only bet on playing the game is on PS2. But with a keyboard and mouth USB Plug-in, they're pretty much exaclty the same. In fact, the PS2 doesn't require a "good graphics card" because it's already built in with one. ^_^

The main difference between the PS2 and PC versions of FFXI -- $130 Dollars. xp

Both PS2 users and PC Users can interact with eachother on the same servers, so it's more a matter of console.

If anyone here has the right System Requirements (Click Here) for their PC or has enough dough to get everything needed for a PS2, I highly recommend this MMORPG. 3nodding

mixed feelings since I rather dislike pc games since it requires you to go online which means more money for me blaugh

Personally I want FFXII sweatdrop

uh...best thing to get for FFXI is a gateway pc with a good graphic card and processor xp I'm not the best in system requirements and what not.

*coughROSEisFREEand3Dcough*

Played it. It gets repetitive for me and it's pretty boring after a good while.

I'm playing X-2 and it's tolerable. Not recommended.

Lol, soft porn xd That's a good way to look at it.

I just like X-2 because you don't have to exactly folow a story. You can do other things and go back. Although, it was made only after a year of X. It's still tolerable.

It's more of a lighter game. Not so much of drama and a storyline. More minigames and little here or there story.

I am a FF fan and I say FFXI is not worth it, I am going to get WoW.. Oh and once you quit FFXI, you can never play again without buying the game again.. grrr and I like to take breaks that is why I don't like it. whee

Yea, I want to buy WoW so bad, I love warcraft.

after 2 months of inactivity on FFXI you lose your account and they delete everything.

you have to buy more months or something after that sweatdrop I dont know, I only played for about 2 months

Wiat-wait-wait...you're telling me I gotta buy the whole game over again? o_0

I was prepared and questioning the long Leveling system, the financial burden of the $100 HardDrive and $13 a month, and having to start over from scratch if I quit playing. But buy it over? I'm not going through that!!

Well -- I guess I can spend all that money I saved up now!! domokun

Are there any other good non-PC (or Linux/Mac friendly) online games?

I was really worked up for The Sims 2 but for some reason, it froze during the exact same spot while the intro of the game is going. crying It's strange since we exceeded all the System Requirements. And we even downgraded things like the Video Card to the exact System Requirement, and it still froze. crying I was dumbstruck! gonk

All the MMORPG websites seem to say that Guild Wars is the best. I also read a Strategy Guide for Star Wars Galaxies and that seemed good.

Then again -- I also read the Strategy Guide for FFXI and it seems beautiful!! gonk *sobs in corner*

Oh ya... One more thing I forgot about FFXI... Here it is, shown by VG cats.
