"Dissidia: FF" stands for "Dissidia: Final Fantasy" (PSP) and "Soul Calibur: BD" stands for "Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny" (PSP). And no, not everyone know all this.
Week ending the 06/sep/2009
The arrival of September marks the true beginning of gaming’s busiest season of the year, and a strong line-up of new releases ensures it’s going to be a good one.
One of the biggest titles hitting shelves this week is Square Enix’s Dissidia Final Fantasy. This highly anticipated PSP release not only celebrates 20 years of the acclaimed series, it merges the beat-‘em-up and RPG genres to create a whole new handheld experience.

Chart-Track's news (on the All-Format chart) :
07/Sep/2009
For a second week, ‘Batman: Arkham Asylum’ holds tight at the top of the All Formats Chart ahead of Wii Sports Resort’ at No2 (-11%).
Sales of Eidos’ critically acclaimed title are only down 27% with the PS3 version gaining ground on the Xbox 360 version, boosted by bundling and the launch of Sony’s new PS3 Slim console at £249.99. Retailer bundling of Sony’s new cheaper and slimmer console has had a marked effect on the All Formats Chart this week with Activision-Blizzard and EA the main beneficiaries. ‘Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare’ (+128%) charges up the Chart from No10 to No3 – it’s highest position for almost 1 ½ years, while ‘Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10’ is up one place to No7, sales climbing by 38%. ‘Call of Duty: World at War’ (+7%) and ‘Fight Night Round 4’ (+68%) both witness strong increases in sales to the PS3 versions, however ‘World at War’ still drops 2 places to No8, while ‘Fight Night’ makes its way back into the Top 10, up 4 places to No9.
There is still room for 2 new releases in the All Formats Top 10 despite competition from PS3 hardware bundled titles - 505 Games debuts at No6 with ‘IL2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey’ and Square Enix’s RPG on PSP ‘Dissidia: Final Fantasy’ is new at No10.
