i recently had my gamertag on xbox 360 go corrupt and now i cant get back because i wasnt told i had to login on windows live every so often in order for my account to not be deleted...anyways no need to get into it..its a lost gamertag and now i cant play for xbox 360
my question is this
where can i buy a ps2 copy with zilart promathia and aht urghan on disc i looked online all i saw was $150+
i know that cant be entirely true....someone help!!!!

also i was told if my account is active i only need 1 disc to download my content, meaning because my character had all the expansions i wouldnt have to get a disc that has all the expansions on it is this true or mistaken situation?

You'll still need disks to install the game on your new PS2 but to my understanding you won't need to input any new product codes as it's registered to your POL account already.

I've lost plenty of install disks and never had to re-enter codes unless it was new content that I had just purchased.

I'm not sure if the PS2 ones are bundled every so often with the original game or not but pretty much if it's never been installed you have to purchase them all.

I'd encourage anyone else to post to as I've had very limited experience in installing it on PS2 but I'm sure I'm right. It's gotta suck. If I were you I'd get a PC. Anything above 1ghz is pretty reasonable and will play this game without too much effort.

Buy used expansions, no point in buying brand new ones because you dont need any codes to reinstall it

Edit: Try on ebay, i got my used ps2 copy of WOTG for 10 bucks on there

i know they discontinued the PS2 Version some time ago after WoTG. i know there's a few places in NY that sell it. can try Game-stop or EB games they might have a used copy for sale online.. i highly doubt they have a brand new copy for sale though.

Wow THAT much?

http://cgi.ebay.com/TOSHIBA-SATELLITE-L25-S1192-WINDOWS-XP-1-5GHZ-80gb_W0QQitemZ130336050995QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLaptops_Nov05?hash=item1e58a24f33

That will play FFXI pretty nicely and only for a little more than you'd pay for all of your hardware after your done.

Of course if your going to play 14 you need to think about getting something a bit more advanced.

Do you need the HDD? because now that i think of it, those things are really rare and seeing it at 150 is actually really cheap lol
I was about to offer to mail you all of my discs and forgot about the HDD, unless you have a PS3 which has the HDD built inside

well if you really want to play then i'd go for the PC, or look into getting a good deal on the ps3 80g backwards compatible
the ps3 that plays ffxi is about 300 or so on ebay and that is soooo worth it, considering i paid i think 500 or 600 for it when it first came out
