Due to the continuous earthquakes occurring in the eastern regions of Japan since Mar. 11, 2011, the power companies in Japan have encouraged everyone to cooperate by conserving as much energy as possible and Square Enix has agreed to take down their game servers for FFXI, FFXIV and PlayOnline for at least 1 week beginning March 3rd 3:00 PST.
A group Final Fantasy XI players are apparently got fed up with the popular MMORPG. The upset fans are suing the publisher and developer, Square Enix, for numerous allegations relating to the mischievous policies within Final Fantasy XI and its expansion packs.
Final Fantasy XI has released on all major platforms, the 360, PS2, PC. However it did not appear on the PS3, which was strange at the time considering Square's strong support of the console. However a recent interview has revealed that Square actually intended to release the game on the next gen console, but one thing stopped them. The Sony dev just stopped coming, for what reason even FFXI producer Hiromichi Tanaka doesn't fully understand.
Within the past several years, Square Enix has been on the ball with remakes of their classic Final Fantasy games. And rumors of a remake for the huge and popular Final Fantasy 7 have been been buzzing around the net.
Square Enix president Yoichi Wada explains how there has been a remake boom lately, "The price of games is high, and consumers tend to be wary of buying games they are unfamiliar with".
That's an interesting reason for the increase of remake talk, but SE fans hope they do...
"FINAL FANTASY XI takes you into the world of Vanadiel during the aftermath of a great war, as you answer a desperate call to defend your people. In this first ever cross-platform massively multiplayer online game, you'll unite with other warriors as they save their world from utter destruction.
The digital version of FINAL FANTASY XI 2008 Edition available for Windows contains the original PC game FINAL FANTASY XI and all four expansion packs to take your adventure even further. These inc..."
Recently Square Enix implemented a new boss into the MMORPG Final Fantasy XI. This boss Pandemonium Warden was almost insanely powerful and many clans claimed to have fought the thing for hours without success as evident here.
However hearing the community's plea's Square Enix have said they are planning to make alterations to the boss. So anyone looking to have a South Park World of Warcraft like battle will be disappointed.
"The allure just isn't there anymore for the Final Fantasy titles and we have to ask why. Loyal fans try to create hype, but the games are just not combining new and old expectations. Maybe it's because every game, we have to warm up to new characters and worlds. Square sets itself up for hit and miss titles with no character regularity. The only motif running through the series I can identify is a blond guy and clueless protagonists. Most of the recent Final Fantasy games (dare I say Square ..."

"The official FFXI site has up notes on the rewards you can garner for participating in the event this year - the very beautiful eggs pictured above with a very sleepy Moogle. How to actually participate in the Eggstravaganza event isn't on the site, but the event hasn't changed overmuch in the many years it's been running. For hints, Allakhazam has guides for the 2005 egg hunt and the 2007 egg hunt."

And no, I dont mean other people period, I mean with their actual in-game friends, although that would be hilariously pathetic =D . The thought of a Tauren and Orc getting it on though is absolutely disgusting. Sure, Ive gotten a lap dance in Goldshire before, but we were both human and she needed the gold for college or a mount or something
Anyways, Nottingham Trent University has done a research study which reveals ..."
