Lol they still milking Lightning even though it's a crossover game

What the hell is Dissidia?
-
I'm glad they are putting a major focus on PS4. I've never played a Dissidia game or any PSP games, and I'm glad eventually I'll get the chance.
-
Sad that the Arcade version is a one year exclusive so we have to wait a while til they port the game to the PS4...in the mean time I'll just replay the first game on my PSP to pass the time every now and then for the whole year.
-
Bump. Who do you want to see?
-
Well, at least it will probably come to the PS4 eventually.
-
bump!
-
Bump. How can nobody be excited?

I can't wait.
