Four months after it's PC release, Final Fantasy XI has now made its way to the Playstation 2 console.
The delay of the release, according to Game Revolution, was due partially to Square Enix's desire to monitor success of the PC version and to the necessity of a marketed PS2 hard drive to store information for the game. Additional information about the PS2 release, as well as screenshots from the PS2 version, can be found at Gamezone.com. This post has been edited by Phoenix on 26th March 2004 06:27 |

I was going to get FF11 for my PC, but that would require a major upgrade. Now that its out on PS2, I think I'll buy it for that. Of course I'm going to wait for EGM to review it in case its really bad or bugy.

I didn't know it was already out for the PC. Oh well. The major question is: Izzit worth it?
Edit Uh...I wasn't being rhetorical by the way. I really wanna know if it's worth it since I'm seriously considering buying it. Also, might anyone know what the monthly cost is? This post has been edited by Narratorway on 27th March 2004 03:32 -------------------- |

If I buy FFXi 4 PS2 I won't have to get a good graphics card. It is one helluva investment though.

Seems like a good game to me. Getting into an online game seems too much of an undertaking at this point. If I wasn't in college then I'd go right out and buy a copy for the PS2... oh well. I wonder what an online RPG is like 5 or 6 years after release. Will it be too hard to find allies? Apparently a lot of us have nothing against buying a 10 year old game and playing it for the first time. Do you online players think that's possible for FF11?

Also, might anyone know what the monthly cost is? I believe the monthy cost is somewhere in the range of $10/month, though that's just an estimate. I've heard people say that the game is addictive, and I imagine it's a great game, so long as you can afford the continual price tag. |
