FFXI for PS3?
Does anyone know if they are going to make FFXI available for the PS3? And if so will you be able to use your current character that you have from the PS2?

I believe they said that it would not be released for the PlayStation 3 because of the way the system was built and run. They said that their servers would not be compatible. However, if this information is not valid, all systems play together and any account can be played on any system. All you need is the login information.

From what Square Enix released in an interview awhile back, they mentioned that the software on their end would not cooperate with the hardware and software built into the PlayStation 3. Square Enix would not re-create the system for a single console; they've said that as well.

That would be the reason that Square Enix is not going to release Final Fantasy XI on the PlayStation 3. It's not going to be compatible with the PlayStation 3 hardware. Square Enix would have to completely rewrite their software to make it work.

Remember that PS3 has backward compatibility (i hope) so it should work some way or another, we gotta try it first.

It's got nothing to do with backwards compatibilitity. Final Fantasy XI requires that you install it on a darhdrive in order to play. After installing it on the harddrive, you no longer need the CD to play. That being said, it doesn't matter if the PlayStation 3 allows backwards compatibility, because now it's entirely up to the harddrive and hardware insdie the PlayStation 3. Square Enix said that the harddrive being used by the PlayStation 3 will not be compatible with Square Enix's server-side software.

dosent that mean that you could use your old hard drive that you used for playing FFXI on PS2?

Well you can always play your character, if you play the PS2 version or the PC cause your Content I.D is always the same.. so even if PS3 has a FFXI then it will let ya play your character on it, cause all your doin is just downloading the game your character exsists in the server untill you delete him/her
