But you said it would cost you $40 to get it for the PC only:



It would cost you $20 for the Abyssea Edition....it's a downloaded package, not boxed. Don't recall seeing it boxed anywhere locally. So it would cost you only $20 and not $40 to install the current FFXI on the PC...that's everything to date on the PC in one shot for $20. No seperate expansions to buy, until the new expansion hits the shelf or becomes available in the next all-inclusive package. You could even hold off migrating to PC and just play the new content only on XB360 until that complete PC package is released and you get the whole ball of wax in one shot for the PC at a discount (which in previous trends has eventually been sold anywhere from $5 to $20). Who knows.. they might even do some special where you get the Abyssea Edition for just $5 again when the new expansion releases.

I didn't say for the PC only ^_^ you just assumed that. I play on both the 360 and the PS2. As I did mention that i play in tandem, meaning with something else. So my statement in completely true. If I got the FFXI Game for PC right now, as in this moment. I'd be paying the 20.00 for the game, and then having to pay for 2 additional expansion. If the do release the next expansion as a combined pack, it'll more than likely be $30.00 (Due to marketing price up-selling) and I'll still have to get the expansion for 360. Where if it were to be available on the PS2, I'd only have to buy the 2 expansions seeing how I already have everything up-to-date.

Of course the $30 is only a rough shot in the dark, but I've seen a number of times when retail people do market-ups way above the SRP.
