So apparently the servers are still up & going. However actually finding a copy of the game in a store is proving near impossible!

The monthly cost isn't that big of a deal to me. I'm not loaded by any means but i have enough $$$ to get by with stuff like that.

It appears there is going to be a bundle coming out with the game, expansion packs and 30day free time, but it's to close to Defiance release date to warrant a purchase.

Wow, they actually are releasing another Final Fantasy 11 retail set. Amazing, after all these years the game is still being played.
I played the FFXI Online beta on Xbox, and about 4 months worth.
I had serious problems understanding what I should be doing. Bought 2 guide books from the book store to help me out.
It was very hard to get anywhere playing solo; you pretty much HAD to play with a group.
Biggest time-sink ever - there must be many hundreds of hours of playtime & grinding in that total package.

I will say this - I really enjoyed playing the game, even though it was difficult. My first MMO.

My main issue wasn't that it wasn't GREAT is just...seemed like it need to be polished more

It's a pity Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn won't be ported to Xbox 360. It will only be released on Playstation 3 and PC specifically because Microsoft would not agree to do 1st party server mergers or cross platform. This is also the same reason Defiance will no longer be cross-platform. Fah-king Microsoft, the Buzz-Killington of cross platforming.

I'd say the fact that the game is ELEVEN YEARS OLD (11), probably says something about the fact of the game's quality, depth, and at this point - polish.

Will finally get some real playtime on my PS3 then. I hope they port FFXIV to next-gen consoles asap. I'm sure the PS3 version will look nice, but not amazing like a current top-end PC.

I'm actually thinking of getting that FFXI Ultimate Bundle in a few weeks - I hear the game has gone through a lot of changes since I played years ago. Easier for people to solo, for one.

Buy a PS3,so you will be able to play all online games with PC gamers.Games like COD,BF3,Max Payne 3,Borderlands...Sony and Microsoft got the same politics about cross-platform...And it's not new, only 2-3 games are cross-platform...And it never bother me 'cause i always found gamers to play with...
