How many Final Fantasy copies can you buy?

Are Square Enix that greedy? Seems so, as they just shipped 1.5 Final Fantasy units in North America, and here they are again getting ready to release a Final Fantasy XI package.

To be more exact, Square Enix will ship a PC Final Fantasy XI Vana'diel package again in North America. This package contains the Final Fantasy XI game itself alongside the three expansion packs: Rise of the Zilart, Chains of Promathia and Treasuer of Aht Urhgan. Besides this software, Square Enix will include in the boxset a FF world map and a starter's guide meant to help those who take the first steps in the FF universe.

This pack has been rated "T" for Teen by ESRB and it costs around US$ 29.99 and is available in stores across North America as of today. If you purchase this pack, you will be able to play online on the 32 FF XI dedicated servers. Upon entering a server, you will be allocated to a random world where you are required to crate your first character.

I'm not such a big fan of the Final Fantasy series, so Square Enix will not see any words of praise from me. I simply don't get the whole idea, and whenever I find myself, accidentally, of course, anywhere near a Final Fantasy game, I try to get out as soon as I can.
