Final Fantasy 11
 

in the june 2002 issue of Game Pro magazine there is an artical about Final Fantasy 11, the target release in the U.S is in 2003 it is meant for net play and says you must have the PS2 broadband adapter to play it, it also says there will most likely be a monthly fee to access your characters. kinda like Ultima Online i guess.

I don't think you have to pay ehh?

that would sux so bad if you did :(
it would make it difficult for me to play it

Same here, I think Square Soft is not that cruel( like MicroS0Ft). I don't think they will make you pay!

me either or I might not be able to get this game

You're gonna have to pay. It sucks, but that's kinda the point of making online games like this. It brings in HEAPS of cash for the developers.

pay=better service in the long run. i'd hate to admit it, but its the best way to go for MMORPGs. I am very dissapointed about the release date, however.

if u have ta pay... im not getting the game... i mean i understand if we have to pay for the modem uses, but for accessing to ur characs to play the game??!?!?!?!? They must out of their minds!!!

you dont have to pay for modem uses.

u dont have to pay for modem uses but u have to pay to play the game?

you use your current ISP for the modem.

paying to play the game... just isnt right for system games...

o...k.... you wanna back that up with anything?

Yeah, XBand was an "online" console network for SNES and Genesis quite a few years back, and it had a monthly rate. Consoles aren't exempt from monthly online fees. Everybody wants something for free, but if you want online gaming, it's just gonna cost you. It sucks, but that's capitalism for you.

CAPITALISM SUCKS!!!

Well, I vastly prefer Capitalism over Communism. I'd rather have to pay a fee every month to play a damn video game than have no video games at all.

First. You must be a rich or your parents are rich, third option, you are working. What THE FUCK AM I TALKING ABOUT?

I still think it is a bad idea to have to pay to play games. It's not like the gaming companies aren't geting payed enough. I mean come on. Really.

I'm not working currently. I've worked my ass off the last three summer's saving up money so I didn't have to work during the school year.

When will FFXII be out anyway?

around next year or the end of this year!

wtf? SHOOT THIS GUY(HLomegasin)... FF XI isnt even out yet...
how could FFXII possibly be out this year?

do you have any idea how much it costs to build and maintain servers

you have a point there... i hate to admit it.

sorry there. I thought he was asking for FFXI, not FFXII :)! oops

yeah, be sorry lol

well...FFXII is not an online game, so probably next year ( mid-summer)

i heard it was just going to be rgulor play and they probly will not make you pay for the simple fact taht no one will buy it

which one? FFXI or XII!

i think he is talking about FF XII... i THINK

I agree since FFXII is not an online-game, why do you have to pay?

my point exactly.... i think~

but why did people say that you have to pay to play FFXII, did they misunderstand from FFXI!

maybe~ who cares... lets drop it now. and get on with our lives.~

I don't understand why can't they be like a blizzard without all the negatvity there not half bad plus there free and charge there games are a bit less than wut square is gonna be charging... it's kinda redicolous I hope it fails so the rest of the online games for consoles will learn a lesson and not charge so high of a price first for the hardware required to access the net then for the game itself and then to keep an account with them the first month spending is nearly 150$ if not more if any of you are like me I just don't have it and if my parents did they wouldn't be willing to just hand it over to me

I personally think they won't charge for online ya know. It is just no usual!!!

I think they re I was reading a game informer and it said that ffxi and everquest are gonna have addtional fees to play them

that is just bad man. What would they want to do that...why can't they do it like Diablo II?

because the operating system for a playstation 2 and a computer are different, it won't support much javascript i.e webtv.

everything sux
