New
MMORPG in the Works from Final Fantasy XI Team
(June 9,
2005)
In a recent
interview with Famitsu, FFXI producer, Hiromichi Tanaka, hinted at a new
MMORPG that his team has in the works. He would not go into
details as to what the game would be, instead going on to discuss the
showings for Sony and Microsoft's next generation consoles.
In the
interview, Tanaka suggests that this upcoming online RPG may find its
way onto the Xbox 360 instead of the PS3 after raising concerns over
current rumors that Sony may ship the PlayStation 3 without a hard
drive. He stated that without a hard drive in the Sony console, it
would be very difficult to properly make a MMORPG for such a platform.
