"It was released in May of 2002, the first cross-platform RPG (PS2 and PC)."

But wasn't FF7 and FF8 released for PC also? O.o;

"The new MMOG will be a cross-platform title, available for both the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360; Tanaka reveals that Nintendo is currently not allowing cross-platform online games."

They'd be insane not to release it on PC.

They meant MMORPG, although they're still wrong.
