An exciting future

[Rebon]

I'm pleased to announce that today marks the end of all the site errors and slow browsing, as we've finally managed to secure a sponsorship deal with our good friends Microsoft. I understand some of you may be worried, but don't - all it would mean is a few more advertisements (banners, popups etc) and possibly a name change.

In return for the new servers we will receive, Microsoft will get the unique opportunity to market their Xbox 360 machine to an existing community of console fans.

I ask that you all welcome JAllard, our corporate representative, as he will be the main point of contact between us and the firm. There will be no rule changes, except that members who repeatedly insult Microsoft products will have to be banned (for obvious reasons).

I hope you're all as excited as I am! Here to an exciting future.

Sony has just confirmed at its E3 press conference that Final Fantasy XIV Online will be available exclusively for PlayStation 3 in 2010.

Details are sketchy at present, other than the fact it's an MMO -- though quite frankly, we're still recovering from the shock of the announcement. A quick teaser was shown, depicting various battles along with the following words on screen:

On a forgotten page of eternity, there lies a land embraced by mighty gods.
Her name.. Eoreza
Under the Eldrich veil of a crimson shadow
Heroes of the Realm, take up your blades
To answer the call of destiny
You must join hands once again

Stay tuned for more information from Sony's press conference as we get it.

Just going to bump all my articles so they are bunched together.

Finding some evidence it's also available on PC; if so, the article should clarify the terms of its exclusivity -- console exclusive.
