I remember reading that Squaresoft wants to release FFXI for as many platforms as they can so that it will be available for more people to play online (I guess MMORPGs are more fun with more people... never played one though).

PS2, Gamecube, PC, and even possibly X-Box are all options.

Yeah. What hurts even more is that it's one of the better FF games, IMHO of course...

Yes, I know.  Hopefully they will release it for Gamecube :-p

I think I might be just hoping for too much, though.

When I heard about the SquareSoft  - Nintendo "war treaty" I jumped up in the air for joy, spun around, and said: "It's about Bloody F***ing Time!!!"
Whoooo!!!

SQUARESOFT + NINTENDO is a good news, but for me not so important, because I hope it will release new FF series in PC platform only, but also hope in other console too, so everybody can play it.  :laugh:

I prefer to get the console versions because they don't take up disk space, you can't get into trouble for owning one of them (emulators), and the files don't get deleted when you're computer has a virus... other than that I like the PC versions too.  :wink:

Seph3d: It'd be nice if it *was* so easy. The hard part is emulating the custom hardware.

Remember the PS1? 33MHz processor, very limited 3d capabilities? Now, you're talking a 500MHz processor with a reasonable (16MB+) video card to get anything like decent games out of a PS emulator.

Now, extend that to the PS2, with its custom video processor with its ridiculous bandwidth ... current hardware can't cut it. I doubt we'll have *playable* PS2 emulators for years, plural.


Notice the cpu power ratio (500mhz needed to emulate a 33mhz cpu).  I read somewhere that, assuming the horsepower ratio is the same, you'd need like a 6Ghz (speeding ticket sold separately! :o) cpu to properly run the ps2 emulator.

As for simply using emulators for the games as opposed to authentic pc versions, I agree, but I draw the line at needing to use XA audio for bgm.  From what it looks like when it's decoding XA on my system, the it keeps streaming it to the hard drive, copying down the audio to the drive.  And keeps writing.  And still writing (HD activity light was solid red.  With my new cd drive, its not solid, but there is constant HD activity for the entire time of playback)......eventually it wore out the heads on my last hard disk, causing me and my dad to spend another freaking $129 on a new disk.

Final Fantasy release in PC platform mean that people don't have a console(or no PS2 coz FF in PS2 only), can play on thier PC and no need to buy a console only because want to play a good game like FF.  :z

Goku7: Here's a question: Is your HD & CD-Drive on the same IDE cable? If so, that's your problem. Having a CD-drive and a HD on the same ICE channel will cause the HD to run at the same speed as your CD-Drive, which would cause tons of problems, including the one you told us about.

Yes, yes, at first I considered those answers, but I think the problem is more complex then that...


You see, when playing regular CD-Audio, or even FF7PC's ".avi" files, the hard drive light does not come on.  At all.  It simply reads them off the cd, like a good cd-rom drive should.  Plus, my relatively new 52x CD-ROM drive lists "CD-ROM/XA" as a readable format, yet I get the same hard disk activity.

I've finally caved in, I'm buying a PS2 soon, MGS2 and FFX are too tempting for me. Plus, this will take the edge of my PC crashing, hehe.

Well, the hard drive's destruction happened over the summer.  I was playing MMX5 (which uses XA audio, and not PSX-MIDI), using the full version of the bleem! emulator.

Lately, I've been playing FF9 using ePSXe 1.5.0, lewpy's GPU, and Eternal SPU 1.20.  Now, FF9 DOES NOT use XA audio for bgm, but the movies do.  There is a slight lighting-up of the hard disk light during playback, due to the newer cd-rom drive (the 52x one).

Also, I've been playing FF Anthology, with also uses XA audio for bgm.  Why they don't simply use the PSX synth for that, I don't know....

Theres still hope for FFX Pc...

Now I've played the demo I know current generation Pc's would be able to run it fairly well...

But I doubt it I really do. Square are so foolish with there games.

The Final Fantasy games are made to be played. Square should make them for people to play. Port them to every format possible. Hell its more money for them and its more people enjoying there games!
