Not sure if this is really thread worthy, so I'm putting it here, and it's slightly related to the fact it's about Dissidia limited stuff:

DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY: WHO WILL YOU BUY FROM?

A little over a month ago we showed you the reversible DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY package art, and today we have more news to sweeten the DISSIDIA experience.

The clever marketing crew has struck a deal with several retailers to give away limited DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY items. Perhaps you've chosen whether you're a Cosmos or a Chaos fan, but who will you buy from?

GameStop Exclusive: Limited Cosmos/Chaos Slip Cases

If you're a collector of unique game packaging, you'll love GameStop's exclusive item, which is the Cosmos and Chaos slip cases. These stylish cases will slip right over your PSP case to give it extra protection and, most importantly, added awesomeness. You don't even have to choose which slip case you want, because you'll get both to satisfy your wavering heart.

Amazon Exclusive: Soundtrack Sampler CD

If you enjoy listening to FINAL FANTASY music, you will surely love the arranged tracks in DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY. With 10 tracks to satisfy your aural cravings, you can take the music wherever you go and delve in to the world of DISSIDIA, even when your thumbs are preoccupied with less interesting activities.

We hear you loud and clear, loyal member: "but MEMBERS blogger, which do I choose? I love both creative packaging and music!" The solution is quite simple, and you'll wonder why you didn't think of it first. Simply buy multiple copies, gift the game to a good friend and keep the exclusive items for yourself! With wireless battles to be had, it just makes sense to spread the love.

Are there more exclusive items to be revealed? Stay tuned to find out!

Another random special item:

One more limited DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY item has been revealed which you can acquire with a preorder. The game comes out on 8/25, so don't wait!

Best Buy: Limited Desktop Calendar
Whether you wish for world peace or to take over the world, you need to have a plan. Get a head start by getting the DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY Desktop Calendar, a 16 month calendar that will help you along the rest of the year and into 2010. As each month rolls by you'll be greeted by gorgeous, inspirational art from the game that depict its heroes and villains to keep you focused at the task at hand, whether it be Cosmos or Chaos related activities.

More special stuff! (This is for Europe only though!)

Dissidia: Final Fantasy in unique packaging.

A mini-game guide with character descriptions, a walkthrough, and more character art from Brady Games.

Two exclusive lithograph prints that Square Enix is showing us today.

 

[Kagari]

Oh snap.
Hopes for a FFXIII PS3 in the US rising

Spoiler

and would save me import cost.

 

[dallow_bg]

Blah, not interested with all the buzz about the "new" PSP around the corner.

 

[Mrbob]

Not to throw wild speculation into this thread, but why is the movie listed as UMD and the game not? Probably means nothing though.

Oh and too bad this is a PSP 3000.

 

[Brandon F]

Not PSP2?

 

[Deft Beck]

This might discount a new PSP at E3

 

[Dead Prince]

Because they are cool like that DD ftw.

 

[Rated-Rsuperstar]

Blah, not interested with all the buzz about the "new" PSP around the corner.

This.

 

[Wollan]

Maybe they'll offer a DD Dissidia bundle as well with new PSP.

 

[Regulus Tera]

boxart sucks

but yay release date

 

[Kagari]

boxart sucks

but yay release date

At least it's not CG renders or some crap.

 

[Zoe]

Fugly

 

[Ninja Kn1ght]

Looks like a regular PSP just bundled with FF stuff. meh.

The Japanese Dissidia PSP is pretty nice.

 

[Deft Beck]

Or, maybe this is just GS clearing out their 3000 stock?
For all we know, they will still sell the model that gives them used game sales while the DD PSP is available.

 

[HamPster PamPster]

1. WTF? Thats not the new PSP!

2. Whose face is strapped onto back?

3. How can you make a WotL style box art and NOT put my man Ramza in there? You're just twisting the knife now SE

 

[Urban Scholar]

The only negative I see here is that the late august release date of Dissidia stateside really is set in stone. Nice bundle, I wonder how many will be bought

 

[DMeisterJ]

This might discount a new PSP at E3

The same way the Lilac PSP Hannah Montana bundle has already discounted it? PSP2/Go/4k won't be out in August, it'll probably hit late this year.

 

[MikeE21286]

looks like my Silver PSP Slim....is there FF Branding on the back ala Darth Vader PSP?

 

[Spiegel]

August 25? Only 8 months later?

S-E is so awesome.

 

[Kagari]

looks like my Silver PSP Slim....is there FF Branding on the back ala Darth Vader PSP?

Doesn't say in the article

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Uhhh...does this mean Dissidia isn't coming out until August?

 

[Classic_Gs]

Blah, not interested with all the buzz about the "new" PSP around the corner.

That, and the lack of artwork on the PSP itself ala the Star Wars & God of War models.

 

[Kagari]

Uhhh...does this mean Dissidia isn't coming out until August?

Hasn't that been known for a while?

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Hasn't that been known for a while?

I thought it was June.

 

[kuYuri]

Is Sony planning on having two PSPs on the market? Ratchet and Clank bundle, Hanna Montana Bundle, Rock Band Unplugged Bundle, Dissidia Bundle... clearly the PSP-3000 isn't going anywhere anytime soon with all these bundles.

This supposed new PSP won't be out for awhile then if that's the case.

 

[thaOwner]

Blah, not interested with all the buzz about the "new" PSP around the corner.

Not unless you want a homebrew capable PSP. This has been hacked as well and it just a matter of time before it will support homebrew fully.

This might discount a new PSP at E3

Thought this was common knowledge already ? Sin even confirmed that this model will receive a price cut and be left on the market along with the new PSP models.

 

[Kagari]

I thought it was June.

Nope. S-E taking a bit long with this one.

 

[Urban Scholar]

Hasn't that been known for a while?

I still would appreciate my magical pretty boy beatdowns in English earlier than that though....

 

[Gomu Gomu]

So much for a NEW PSP.

the color kicks ass though.

 

[grandjedi6]

Not to throw wild speculation into this thread, but why is the movie listed as UMD and the game not? Probably means nothing though.

Oh and too bad this is a PSP 3000.

UMD as opposed to the DVD and Blu-ray versions. There's no need for the game to do the same as the "UMD version" is obviously the only version.

 

[comedy bomb]

So much for a NEW PSP.

the color kicks ass though.

This changes nothing. Nintendo just released that green DSlite bundle, shortly after the DSi launched.

 

[Ninja Kn1ght]

The new PSP will be coming out after this and they will continue to support the PSP-3000 as it'll be the only model which still has a UMD drive, games will still be coming out on UMD and they'll still have to sell consoles that can support them.

 

[Pachael]

There's also a bunch of UMD video to sell too. (FFVIIAC)

 

[Trevelyan]

Nice Bundle. Happy to see Sony finally doing away with the damn 1GB memory sticks too for this bundle.

 

[ShinoguTakeruKoeru]

Not the biggest fan of the domestic boxart, especially since it's basically a collage of character art when they already have an official image of them standing together against the opposing characters. In CGI even, which they seem to so love to put on the American market boxart.

 

[jump_button]

anything on back of the psp?

 

[dallow_bg]

Not unless you want a homebrew capable PSP. This has been hacked as well and it just a matter of time before it will support homebrew fully.

As will be the case with whatever new PSP model is created.
I still have my PSP-1000 in the meantime.

 

[NeoUltima]

So much for the new PSP.

 

[B.K.]

So it's just a regular PSP that comes with Dissidia? It doesn't have anything printed on the back?

 

[rataven]

It's nice we are finally getting an SE bundle, but why no pretty artwork on the psp? The color is pretty sweet though and I'm a sucker for FF so I'll probably still buy.

 

[Firestorm]

So that's why they cleared out the Ratchet bundle at Wal-Mart for $149.99.

 

[yankee666]

So much for the new PSP.

Well, this will be out by august 25th, so there still a chance that the New PSP is out by sep-oct-nov. Have a little hope people!!!

 

[Shig]

Should have been a white system. It's garbage that the only white PSP we got here is the Darth Vader one.

 

[Jade Knight 08]

Already got PSP 3000 system last x-mas. I guess i'll wait for the game to come out later in the year.

 

[Slurmer]

hot

 

[Tellaerin]

People bitched and moaned about the Vader PSP because it had artwork on it, and said they would have bought it if it had been plain white. Now this bundle's announced, and people are complaining because the PSP (apparently) doesn't have any artwork on it. I swear, it's impossible to please you people.

We care more about Nomura art than Darth Vader.

 

[VGChampion]

I'm interested. I'm still using the original PSP so depending on what this new PSP becomes, I could see picking this up.

 

[Regulus Tera]

We care more about Nomura art than Darth Vader.

the art on the japanese bundle was amano's

 

[Kadey]

Hannah Montana bundle is better.
