Final Fantasy XI (PC)

Final Fantasy XI is the only game in the series that is online. It introduces the Active Dimension Battle System (ADB). Which means that monsters are roaming around the area and are in full view of the character. No seperation screen between the battle and normal game. The best thing about this game is that its has 4 expansion packs, which means that it adds new areas, new monsters, new quests, new items and new equipment to the game. Plus with new patches being added more quests are being added all the time. You cannot have nothing to do with this game. Always updating. When you start the game you can create you character to you liking - Hair, ...  Read the complete review

Now I know that many reviewers here at DooYoo may not like my style of reviewing but I feel to give a personal view, unedited, unformatted and straight to the point of how the game made one FEEL is more useful, as I am sure when you go to purchase such a game you will read the requirements and such there.

So sleep I went and came back to it the next day. If, like me you came from ...  Read the complete review

I feel that I would have to play the game a lot more than I do to actually gain enough confidence in the ...  Read the complete review

Some of you may have noticed I've had a very long absence from ciao and dooyoo which only ended a couple of months ago. That's because for a while, I had a new love in my life, Final Fantasy XI online. I've never been into Massively Multiplayer Online role-playing Games much before, and to be honest, I actually doubted I'd enjoy this game. You see it wasn't me that made the initial choice to purchase, but one of my ex boyfriends, Zephyr. He's been a fan of FF for years, right from its early days on Nintendo through till now. He is the uber FF geek...he whistles the chocobo theme as he walks about, and constantly rambles on about stuff from the ...  Read the complete review
