FF XIV Beta to open next week

Im pretty stoked for the Console because i think it will give more of a feel of "the World"

I guess that makes since...but I still don't see how you can use to 20-50 different skills in any speed that makes it useful...

Was battle in FF XI menu-based? If so a controller wouldn't be a big deal.

Yeah, but FFXIV is not...there are action menus like in most other MMORPGs... But after watching some gameplay footage, they might be limiting you to 10 skills, probably to make it easier to play with a controller...that is FTL...don't limit the PC gamers just so the consoles can play...grrrrr...

Odd...FFXIV for PC is $50...but for PS3 it is $60...that doesn't make much sense...

Hmm that seems typical to me. Pc games are always $10 less at launch aren't they?

Sometimes...I believe both BC2 and MW2 were $60 for the PC...
