This Final Fantasy XIII-2 PS3 Bundle Is Only For Taiwan

By Joshua Spudic

It looks like Lightning will be gracing the Playstation 3 once more as Final Fantasy XIII-2 will be receiving a limited edition Playstation 3 bundle. Sounds good, but there is one problem. The bundle itself will not be available in the West, not in Japan and not even Mainland China. So where is it? How about Taiwan. Yep, this bundle will only be available in the small country off the south coast of China.

The bundle contains a Lightning Version 2 PS3 console (black with a purple Lightning), the soundtrack in a “special package,” one of eight transparent posters featuring characters from the game and a copy of Final Fantasy XIII-2 with both Chinese and English subtitles, which means it is Western friendly. First prints of the game will also contain two DLC costumes. Serah’s costume will be entitled “Summoner’s Garb” and Noel’s entitled “Battle Attire,” both already confirmed to see a Western release when the game hits shelves later this month (or early February for Europe and PAL territories).

Josh is the name, writing is my game... well my degree will say that. But, when uni gets me down (and it does), there is no better way that to grab a chair, sit back and slicing up some DarkspawnI started my gaming interest back in the good old 16 bit era with the Sega Mega Drive and Sonic The Hedgehog 2. I was roughly five years old. To this day I still try to fire up the dusty companion and speed through the wacky and bright levels, jumping on some Badniks, collecting those damn Chaos Emeralds. Then I moved onto Sony's disk based console the Playstation (thanks to my uncle). Since then I have picked up each of Sony's consoles from the 5th to current generation that has been released in Australia (with more to come).In terms of writing about games, I am quite new to the field. I started out late last year with my own blog before deciding to move to greener pastures. I have written a few reviews for the Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable. Features as well. I hope I can flex my muscles while writing with Capsule Computers.If I'm not gaming, however, I'm writing narratives. I am currently trying to kickstart a high fantasy novel (which, hopefully, turns into a complex RPG) that I want done in five years or so. My passion of writing has been there for a long time and has flourished as I grew. I'm into the fantasy genre, both games and novels, and thoroughly enjoy a deep and complex RPG, whether it comes from the East or West.Oh and anime is awesome!
