■ 25/07/08 - Final Fantasy 11 The Final Fantasy series has a proud and illustrious heritage. Even in the West, where Japanese RPGs are considered something of a niche market, Square Enix's creations hold a fond place in the heart of many a gamer. So it was with great anticipation that Final Fantasy XI, the first massively multiplayer entry into the series, was welcomed almost four years ago. However, the game all but flopped: disappointingly average, riddled with huge, glaring flaws, it was far from the game we had all hoped for. Decent enough player numbers allowed it to continue through four expansion packs and three formats, and helped by those loyal fans the game avoided the descent into MMO hell. Now a full package release, featuring the game itself and all four expansions, including the most recent Wings of the Goddess pack, has hit the shelves at a knockdown price. It may seem like a bargain, but for a game so full of holes on its original release, this could be a case of false economy.

Après de nombreux RPG et quelques titres plus ou moins discutés, la firme japonaise s’attaque à un tout autre genre : le MMORPG. Final Fantasy XI Online de son nom complet s’appuie sur des bases solides posées par les précédents opus du studio, mais cela suffira-t-il pour convaincre à la fois les fans du genre et ceux de la licence ? ...Test de Final Fantasy 11 sur Xbox 360, chez XBox Gamer.
■ 28/07/06 - Final Fantasy 11 Final Fantasy has finally made its way to the Xbox 360. Let me begin by saying FFXI requires patience and time…LOTS of time. This is not a “pick up and play for 30 minutes” type of game. This is the same game that PC and PS2 owners have played for several years. Is the ability to battle foes alongside your non-360 friends on a 4 year old game worth the $50 purchase and an additional $12.95 per month fee? Read on to find out.
