Final Fantasy XI: Treasures of Aht Urghan will be released this week, and will also be included in the Xbox 360 version of Final Fantasy XI. Ubisoft released these images from the expansion.
It's a damn shame. This game looks so dated that the skeletons appear to have skin on their ribs. Would it have hurt to be able to see through it's torso a bit. Am I the only one who sees this as a test game from Square Enix. In other words they're cautious about releasing their best content on the 360 until it gets some respect from Japan. So for now, they give us this $H!T. I say f--k 'em.
Well if you compare this game to FF 12 you'll see allot of similarities such as the same $%(**$ engine. Oh lets copy Dot hack and use the FF 11 engine...Aren't we smart.
Like i have said in the past you people don't deserve decent games, seems all you are interested in are pretty graphics.
Personally i'm more interested in gameplay.
360 doesn't have an MMO at the moment, sure it's not a graphics master piece, but it attempts to create new content on the 360 for people interested in this genre.

Have you played FF 11? That game is freaken hell and back. You don't deserve to comment eh! ;p
Hopefully this game sells really well so square enix thinks twice about leaving 360 owners out in the dark with their future game releases. Hell I want to see square's best games make it to the 360, but I'm not willing to pick up this game, not because of the graphics, but just because I'm not interested in the content. I just hope this game sells really well especially in japan.

the models look good but the terrain graphics are horrible looks like ps2
As the man said MMorpg's aren't supposed to be graphical. The game's content is priority and this game..is a grindfest. I love the FF class basics, but Sony just loves grinding people to death in their MMO.

Sony ??
And yea FF11 can be a serious time sink at higher level's, but saying that this has the best story in any MMO i have played.(infact most MMO's don't have much of a story)
The missions can be frustratingly difficult though.
WoW's art style is absolutely brilliant though.
WoW does have a nice graphical style to it, but it lacks any real purpose, other than trying to gather as much armor as possible.

True. I stopped when I got to level 50 as I didn't see any real point. I only levelled to 40 because I really wanted a mount, but as soon as I got it, I was like 'now what?'

So says the Fanboy. ;p Don't compare FF XI with WOW. I prefer cool armor to the extremely flamboyant leather straps they give you in FF XI. My problem with FF is that you have to not like, but love the game to actually get into it.

Commented on 2006-04-20 13:24:27oh, maybe that's one of the new ultra-flat 23th century pistols?
"ugh" is the right commentary...
Commented on 2006-04-20 16:29:12But give me my Ubisoft titles like Prince of Persia, GR, RB6, Splinter Cell, etc.
This game does nothing for me. Hope someone enjoys it. MS bent over enough for Square, I hope someone benefits.
