E3 2009: FF XIV Online coming to 360?

E3 2009: FF XIV Online coming to 360?

Yesterday during Sony's E3 2009 keynote, Final Fantasy XIV Online was revealed and confirmed as a Playstation 3 exclusive (along with release on PC). While 360 owners don't seem to have caused much of a fuss over the announced exclusiveness, those who do care will be pleased to know there is still a glimmer of hope that the title will appear on the 360.

During a Q&A with IGN, FF XIV development team members revealed that the team is "considering all options at this time" regarding cross-platform release. Considering how well Final Fantasy XI went on XBOX 360 earlier this generation, one would think the possibility of it being announced for the console are high.

This news is sure to anger some dedicated PS3 and FF fans who are still livid at the announcement that Final Fantasy XIII was coming to 360 after promised exclusiveness on PS3.

Err hopefully the online play, seeing as it will be an online subscription based thing will also be multi platform allow people to interact between different systems. Would this be possible or am I just dreaming?

square enix would be silly not to release it on the xbox. given the game needs as many players it can get to be a successful mmmo, restricting to two platforms wouldn't make sense. i am not particularly keen on this game, but if the game is to be successful, more players the better.
