Final Fantasy XIII gets PS3 bundle, release date and more

Snow summons the infamous Shiva motorcycle.

At the Final Fantasy XIII premiere event at the Tokyo Science Museum Square made a number of announcements, most notably the game's December 17th, 2009 release date in Japan. Additionally, Sony exec Kaz Hirai announced that upon the game's release Sony will be releasing a PS3 Slim bundle with the game, though pricing is yet to be announced.

Japanese company Suntory (think Pepsi in the U.S.) also announced a special FFXIII drink tie-in, in the form of the Final Fantasy XIII Elixir, which is scheduled to launch this winter in Japan. The Elixir was served at the premiere event, and from what we could tell it has a strawberry-like flavor, and definitely has quite a lot of alcohol in it.

Event attendees were also treated to an amazing orchestral performance of a number of Final Fantasy XIII songs (video to follow shortly), and the finale Theme Song was sung by Japanese vocalist Sayuri Sugawara.

Stay tuned for our full synopsis of the Final Fantasy XIII premiere event.

I'm wondering if they are going to release a Final Fantasy drink like that in the US, and if they did what company would even want to put their name on it... Plus with all the ridiculous alcohol laws (at least in PA, can't even buy beer in a supermarket), I'm assuming the odds of me ever tasting this Elixer in America are about 10,000 to 1. I'm just making assumptions and I hope I'm wring, but I can't help but feel insanely jealous of Japan.

Only a fucking retard who knows nothing about history & japanese culture would feel insanely jealous, especially over a ghey as Japanese shit like this... what a fucking tool indeed! Answer me this: why do anime loving EMo kids dig this androgenous ghey crap soooo much?

Kids these days . . . so full of hate. What do you care if somebody wants to try some silly marketing campaign tie-in drink? Just because somebody is interested in something you aren't doesn't mean you need to get all up in arms and start spewing homophobic nonsense about it. To each his own. I'm sure somebody could find fault with something that you "dig" too. But whats the point?

Find a better use of your time. Who knows, maybe one day you might actually make some meaningful contribution to society. Or just keep spreading hate. Your choice.

Type "lol" all you want, but there is absolutely nothing you can say or do to hurt me. Your efforts are a waste of bandwidth.

So, you have revealed that the plight of endangered species and the environment are of no concern to you. That is fine. But tell me, what does matter to you? What drives you to get out of bed in the morning. What do you want to accomplish before you die?

1) Your opinion holds as much weight as used toilet paper. 2) You can interpret my statements in whatever context you wish. I have revealed NOTHING to you so plz continue to use ur vivid imagination as you see fit tool. LOLOLOLOLOLOL & yes I will continue to laught at u for defending a pre-pubescent R*tard. I can already see that you are satisfying your life's ambition by defending the unimportant & trivial which reveals the fact that your life is unimportant & trivial. Now hurry, I think Dr. Phil is on nancy boy. rofl, lmao, lol, cmc!
