Sorry for the amateurish question, but does anybody know when Crisis Core is coming out in Australia? As I've been looking around, and I can see the EU's release as the 20th... so why doesn't Australia have a release date?
Oh yeah, in an interesting aside, it seems Australia is getting the 10th Anniversary PSP bundle especially... I've put one on order (you can check it out at http://www.ebgames.com.au/PSP/product.cfm?ID=11596). _________________ I'm a gamer girl - I play games, not consoles!

Is there anything new in the PAL release? Would I be better off just importing?

Nobody can say whether there will be extra content but I would strongly presume that to be a no.

Thats a trustworthy, Australian site which imports games. You'll save money if you get it there, and you can have it in a few days. I got it when it came out in America from that site, and it was great ^_^ _________________

I was already trying to figure out the best way to score the art book without having to buy the game again, but then this gorgeous looking fancy silver PSP comes along...
$149 I believe if you trade in three PSP games and a PSP. Does this sound worthwhile or a rip off?

Thats $150 for A PSP And Three Games. If you did that on Ebay, you'd get more.
ITs gonna be $300 like that God of War bundle, IMO PSP's need to be cheaper, the games are. _________________

The PALGN website release says it's due out in Australia (or just PAL in general) on the 20th June. EBGames Australia, however, says that it's due out on the 19th June. That's just the game though, according to the EBGames website, the special edition PSP and Crisis Core are due out in 'June' - just no news whether it's coming out at the same time, earlier or later. _________________ I'm a gamer girl - I play games, not consoles!

super excited that we're getting the FFVII:CC slim psp bundle, and apparently its an EB Games exclusive. Their website shows the one with the decal, but can anyone confirm we're going to get this one, and not a plain silver or white one bundled with the game
i called and the sales assistant said she wasn't 100% sure
(Just a litlle suss because i thought only 77,777 of these sexy units were made)

meant to be out on the 19th i believe. So next week.
and as far as i've seen, the artbook is a EB exclusive. Though i wonder if the art book is just renders or actual artwork. I saw some images of the book open, and they just showed pretty renders. _________________

Hmm.. Just to be sure before i do the same myself, do their bonus products appear on the receipt at all?
I want to score that artbook for free as well but purchase the game elsewhere.

I'm taking advantage of the EB trade in deal. I picked up 3 $10 psp games from EB today.
Trade in a PSP + 3 games and get the cyrsis core bundle for $149.
Effectively getting $140 for my PSP Phat. Which I'm happy with. _________________ Shin J Leon.

Got my bundle today.
Dissapointed with Sony's cost cutting. The bundle has a charger and that's it. No headphones, no mem stick, no screen wipes and even no strap! Also where are the A/V cables? I have to buy it separately? I'm glad EB only required the console and charger and I got to keep the rest of the stuff from my original bundle.
Plus the PSP phat volume control jack doesn't work with the PSP slim. Have to buy that separately as well.
Oh, and I got a nice fat dead pixel again. I guess it's better then 4 like my last PSP. Still, sucks. I hate dead pixels and it frustrates me to death! I not going to bother taking it back because chances are I'll get one with 5 dead pixels.
Anyway, slim feels heaps better, the D-PAD is amazingly better. It's raised and you can easily do angled motions how. I'd like to give SFA3 a chance now on the PSP (cause it was unplayable with the PSP phat). The tray has been gimped though. It looks really dodgy now.
CC looks great too (CG is very nice). I love the music. FFVII has one of the best soundtracks ever. _________________ Shin J Leon.

^CC has a fantastic soundtrack. Story is very good too, especially if you're a fan of FFVII and want to see what happened before the events of that. _________________
