I am an avid ffxi player
I have it for both my computer and 360
all systems are connected, so don't worry about that
when you get ffxi
playonline viewer takes FOREVER
they have updates that get really annoying imo
they have a new one for about every month, due to every holiday.
But, you have to be dedicated to this game or else you wont get very far lol
so if you cant devote 2+ hours a day to this game, it'll be a very long time
not to mention it takes a very long time reguardless
PM me with any questions!
