Two Dissidia Bonuses for US Gamers

Square Enix has struck a deal with two of the largest game-selling retailers in the US to give away some exclusive Dissidia goodies to those who preorder the game. Fans will only be able to get one unless they buy from both places - so they'll have to choose.

So basically the only real "bonus" is the cover which is pointless and the soundtrack which you can already listen to on youtube. S-E just keeps on failing (not to mention that this is yet another one of their mediocre games).

mpmaley6158d ago

Meh for slip cases. I'd prefer the sound track off Amazon. But for me I pre-ordered the PSP-Dissidia bundle from Gamestop. I really don't like shopping there but they're the only place that is going to sell this bundle. Can't wait for Aug 25 :D

AP6158d ago

The bundle is pretty good value, but the only problem is it's not a special edition PSP with FF printings on it like Japan got for Dissidia - just a normal PSP - and the game will probably only come in a cardboard sleeve inside, like the Ratchet bundle... :(

ChampIDC6158d ago

Yeah, my Rock Band bundle came with a sleeve. I hate that.

mpmaley6158d ago

Oh...I didn't know that. That makes me sad now :(

iamtehpwn6158d ago

but I might buy it (legally) in English).

wazzim6158d ago

at the time when there was hype about it and played it for a long time. So I am no longer interested in the English version.

lepolohuevo6158d ago

Well, it's better than nothing I guess. Now if only Square could shorten their traditional delay between Japan and USA/Europe, that would be very nice.

Myst6157d ago

If they had brought over the special edition PSP I would have gotten, well anyway I'll still throw down a pre-order on the game just so I can make sure I get it.

I'm curious but is it possible to legally play these games without buying a psp?

luckytrouble1867d ago

You can play some of them on the Vita via PSN purchasing, but a PSP with a functional UMD drive is the only completely legal way to play games like FF7: Crisis Core.

WeAreLegion1867d ago

Some of them, yes. But most PSP games are locked to that system or digitally on Vita. The Vita's second analog stick is amazing for FPS games. I use an emulator to play many PSP games. I know that's illegal, but I wouldn't call it unethical. There's no way to give developers money for these games anymore. Unless you buy their new games. :)

Highly recommend Infected, if you get the chance.

Magic_Spatula1866d ago

Emulators aren't illegal. Unethical? Maybe. The issue companies have are how you obtained the games. If you got them through legal matters (such as making your own backups of games you own and not distributing them), they're mostly okay with that. If you got the through less..... ethical means, then yeah, it's a no-no in their eyes.

Fluke_Skywalker1866d ago

@Magic_Spatula Like he said, there is no legal way to buy most psp games anymore in a way that gives the developers any money. So yes emulators are normally illegal and unethical, but in this case its actually the only way to play some of these games, if you didn't buy the games many years ago.

Fluke_Skywalker1866d ago

Yeah they really need to give us a remake of that for PS4/5 I absolutely loved that game. Still the saddest ending to a video game ever.

SDuck1867d ago

The fact this has vanilla Dissidia instead of Duodecim tells me not to take the list serious. Duodecim is obviously the superior since it has the same content (story included) from the first game and (much) more

Magic_Spatula1866d ago

Yeah. Duodecim was basically an enhanced version of the original game.
