Final Fantasy XI: Treasures of Aht Urghan

Platform: PC, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360
Publisher: Square-Enix

If I actually had an Xbox 360, I'd probably be giving Final Fantasy XI another shot. I still consider the game deeply flawed when compared to World of Warcraft. But Blizzard's MMO can't hold a candle to the sheer class of Square-Enix's character design.

So here's how this expansion works. But the new game for the Xbox 360 and you get the works; the new expansion as well as Rise of the Zilart and Chains of Promathea. PC and PlayStation 2 players have to snag The Treasures of Aht Urghan disc to enjoy the new areas and jobs (Blue Mage and Corsair).

Perhaps the most underappreciated aspect of Final Fantasy XI is that players across all consoles and countries can play together and communicate -- a feature that would go a long way to mend World of Warcraft's cross-cultural relations.

Final Fantasy XI for the Xbox 360 and The Treasures of Aht Urghan expansion both launch on April 18th.
