I'm just wondering has anyone got FFXI on their PC from North America? I'm in Canada at the moment and i'm thinking of buying it and then playing it when i get back to England. However i'm just worried the game: (1) Will not work and (2) If it does how laggy will the game be given the fact i'm on a broadband connection but on an american server

Any help and information is much appreciated.

Decided against getting it just in case. Decided to buy MVP Baseball 2004 for my PS2 instead. Will just have to wait for a European release

PCGamer reviewd the game a few issues ago, the only trouble they had was with registration, but they by passed that by making up a US adress. Seems to have worked fine for them, and it got a very good review too.

I was wondering this a short while ago too. I assume it could work, but there's the problem of billing, registration etc. All that malarky will bet set up for US addresses so we might have a problem.

I'm holding out until someone is successful with it, so I don't waste any money myself!

Well I know that all PC games work on any PC (obviously you need at least the minimum specs).

The other thing I don't have a clue but seeing as stuff like Xbox Live, and streaming stuff like Realplayers stuff works fine, in my experience, when connecting in the US I wouldn't think there is a problem.
