For those of us who are excited about the Final Fantasy Dissidia Bundle should know that it is only available through a lottery system?! That and only members of Square Enix can enter and they will all be picked at random so your chances are quite slim even if you make the time limit for entering is only for a week. This I think is quite unfair on Square Enix’s behalf but what can you do? Anyway let’s just hope we can get them on Ebay!!!
Okay i am officially in love with this PSP!!! We knew that several new games were going to be bundled with a PSP-3000 pack in Japan, and Gundam vs. Gundam just so happens to be one of them. The interesting thing about this bundle is that the PSP-3000 has a special Gundam-themed embossing on its backside; this will be the first PSP-3000 model — which we know of at the moment — to feature such extra fan service. We wonder if the other Japanese bundles (Dissidia: Final Fantasy and Patapon 2 Donchaka) will also receive this boutique-style enhancement. We’ll just have to wait and see.
The Gundam vs. Gundam bundle will launch alongside the standalone game on November 20 in Japan. It will retail for ¥24,840 ($236.23).

TOKYO — Game software developer Tecmo Ltd said Thursday it has agreed with game maker Koei Co to launch merger talks, rejecting a takeover offer by much larger rival Square Enix Co. The announcement came on the deadline date set by Square Enix for Tecmo to say whether it agrees with the major game software maker’s plan to buy a more than 50% stake in Tecmo for 920 yen per share.
Square Enix, the producer of popular game software titles such as the Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy series, has said it would not launch the over 10 billion yen bid without approval from Tecmo. Tecmo and Koei, both listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, said they will set up a committee to consider their integration in detail. They said their merger should be beneficial for each other as it would help them retain their talented employees and a stable environment for game development, and maintain and develop their brands. Tecmo, the maker of the Dead or Alive video game series, reported 12.05 billion yen in group sales in calendar 2007.
