- Limited Edition Crisis Core PSP Bundle Announced
- Posted 7 months ago by Sarah
We all know that Europe sometimes gets a bad deal when it comes to video game release dates. For example, Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core, which has been out for almost a year in Japan and several months here in the U.S., is only just now hitting the continent across the pond. However, Sony and Square Enix are making up for it in a big way, with this gorgeous, limited-edition PSP.
The PSP will be part of a special bundle which will also include a copy of the game. It’s dated for June 20th and will be available for 189.99 euros (around $295). Unfortunately, it looks like this sweet PSP will be confined to Europe only, which honestly doesn’t seem fair. It’s not that I don’t love my Darth Vader PSP or anything, but it’d be nice to have the option of having a silver PSP engraved with characters from one of my favorite video game franchises.
For more information, check out the press release below. Meanwhile, I’ll be off sulking about it for a bit.

When I read about this I wished it were coming to the US. I already have a PSP but to have a monogrammed PSP with a few of my favorite characters (and one of my favorite games) would be extremely awesome. I could have always picked up an import but it's waaaaaay expensive compared to other things on my list.
