I agree that the community in FFxi is great, somthing that is rare and should be appreciated in the MMO catagory. Although, it is true that people will rub you the wrong way based on your main and sub job choice(If it's precived as a poor choice by that person[s]), it's still an overall GREAT community compared to pretty much all other MMOs out there. I feel, though, that you've missed a big point concerning FFxi, Lord Mog. The translation feature. I mean it's one thing for example where you can play online with someone in the Philippines while you're in America(Usually MMOs can be accessed in most places of the world, of course), but to bridge a HUGE gap by granting players an abilitiy to communicate with others who can't understand that person's language is just amazing. I know it's usually overlooked, but there is a very big player base of Japanese players who can't speak a word of english(At least on Remora), and being able to communicate with them by using the translator is great since, from my own experence, Japanese parties are the bestest It was great because with the help of the translator I was able to get to know alot of Japanese players and was the only english-only-speaking member of a linkshell(Go BlueAir ). Of course the linkshell had Japanese who could speak english, so that helped me out, but it was still a great thing that I probably couldn't do without a translation feature. Also the fact that FFxi is the only MMO out there to give a translation feature that is continually updated and corrected is a big plus also . Although one thing I don't like about FFxi is their take on PvP...

Nice review,graphics doesn't look amazing,but it seem good enough for P2P I suppose(at least the few pictures I've seen),I'll try to get the 360 version as soon as possible(Whin I won't be too broke*laughs*),but the community won't be good with me in,change the score to 2/10 when I'll get in:P,the review lacks of screenshots though.
