Final Fantasy XI: Treasures of Aht Urhgan (Add on) for Windows

Pros: A frustrating but satisfying crafting system, party aspect of gameplay, great sound.
Cons: Leveling treadmill from Hell, loads of lazy beggars, boss monster spawns are CAMPED!

All them words below and still merely a brief overview? Crazy. I've had my experiences with the world of the Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games (henceforth referred to as MMORPGs), as I wasted away for years playing Asheron's ...

Pros: no looting/killstealing, many jobs, subjobs, large world, many races, addictive gameplay, co-opperative enviroment, involving storyline
Cons: lack of customization, outdated graphics, lack of pvp, repetive gameplay, sharp learning curve

I have been playing ffxi since it's north american pc launch about 2 years ago. Let me state once and for all that i am not a final fantasy fangirl. I don't go goo-goo-ga-ga each time a new final fantasy game is released. I'm an avid gamer and avid rpg ...

Pros: Addicting, many classes, character variation, fun
Cons: Frustrating, loss of EXP at death, rude newbies

I've never really been a fan of these MMORPG things. That is, until Final Fantasy wandered from Fry's Electronics (which sucks, btw) to my home and then my PC. I was immediately hooked to the game because it was simple to understand and easier to ...

Pros: Game's graphics are top notch
Cons: Convoluated fame system, huge time sinks

I've played Everquest and Anarchy Online before playing this game, so I have a frame of reference with which to compare this one to. First of all, FFXI is has a very different look and feel than any other Windows PC based MMORPG. This is because the ...

Pros: Very in-depth, high-level gameplay. Lots of strategy, social interaction, exciting gameplay. Diversity of players.
Cons: Real Money Trade (see review), immense time-sink, can be VERY frustrating, language barriers.

I've been playing this game now for about a year and 4 months. As a gamer since childhood, I can honestly say that very few games have kept me engaged so long. This is a game that entertains many age groups. I have personally interacted with people ...

Pros: Beautiful breathtaking environments, social atmosphere, tons of things to do.
Cons: Strict party system to level up, gil sellers camping, must put in time to progress.

Final Fantasy is a game which will pull you in and suck away at your life for months at a time. I recommend it insofar as you are able to spend at least 4 hours at a time to get any experience. This is because there is a strict party system in which all ...

Pros: Strategy, graphics, music, storyline...... All the best.
Cons: The better a game you play is, the less life you have.

Awesome graphics, can't believe it's a 2002 game.
Requires hi-depth strategy for many kinds of Battlefields or HNM fighting.
Party co-operation very important, an effetive party can get 5+ times better experience points than soloer, that's my type.
Music composed by Square-Enix, one of the best game factory in the world.
The rule "MMORPG has no storyline" absolutely doesn't fit this game, remember , it's Final Fantasy! Finish you Chains of Promathia missions if you don't believe it.

Pros: the box is pretty
Cons: service,video card requirements,the game
