Final Fantasy XI and its expansions are being sold through Direct2Drive for $19.95 each. Instruction manuals are also available, which is super-nice of them.

I got off that addiction years ago. I find it would have been nice if there had not been a box. It's not as if I could reinstall and play anytime I wanted with my old character.

I just recently quit playing FFXI after four years. Despite what people say, it really IS a good Final Fantasy. For the times I did have to reinstall though, it was a pain since I had the original release game which was four CDs, then each expansion pack which was two CDs and two DVDs. That took a good two hours or so of sitting and swapping discs.

Boxes? We don't need no stinking boxes

Really Scott, you should be ashamed of yourself for messing up the quote. ;)

I liked it much better than WoW, but not as much as Everquest. It was an awesome game, imo.

I've actually just quit FFXI after playing for over a year and a half, don't have the time anymore. If you have a serious abundance of time i.e. you don't really have a life, then it is definitely the game for you.
Wish we had digital distribution for the game in the UK the amount of times I've had to do a reinstall
