The versions are already confirmed to be International.

Not a big deal honestly.

idc, i would have happily paid full price for the game anyway.

Ahaha oh wow, please be fake. They can't be this stupid especially after their recent wakeup call.

from our press release:

About Eternal Calm -FINAL FANTASY X-2 Prologue-

Eternal Calm it's a nearly 15 minutes FMV short-film which fill the time gap between FFX and FFX-2 explaining the reasons why Yuna leaves Besaid and embarks on a new adventure to find the truth behind a hidden mystery related to someone from her past. This piece of story is vital to understand the significant change of mind of Yuna between both games, and the current situation of Spira, before playing FFX-2.

In Japan it was titled [EIEN no NAGI-SETSU -FINAL FANTASY X: ANOTHER STORY-] included in a 2nd DVD disc within [FINAL FANTASY X INTERNATIONAL], and later re-released within [FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 ULTIMATE BOX]. While in the West was released in a demo disc of PlayStation Official Magazine, or in a bonus DVD disc within [Unlimited Saga] video-game.

Even more, remember:

Square Enix is NOT ensuring Eternal Calm: FFX-2 Prologue and FFX-2 LAST MISSION within the International versions that will be provided in this HD Remaster, so if you really want it, join us and ask for it!

Wow that is greedy as fuck. Selling DLC for a PS2 remake? Wowwww.

That's so f'd up. Wow...still going to buy them all anyway. -_-**

Edit: Just saw the price of 40, then additions totalling to 58$. I think they did it this way to introduce more customers to purchase the game, and then bring in more direct income to Squenix via DLC rather just charging 60$, where as more money would percentage-wise just go to distributors/stores.

Smart move Squenix. Smart move. 

Decisions like this encourage me to be a cheap bastard. It is easy to be patient and wait for a game to be dirt cheap when you have a backlog - mine is 70 + strong. Initially, I planned to get this game day one on Vita and also the PS3 version at a later date, but now, I'll just wait it out. If the KH collection has this sort of BS then I shall wait on that one as well.

If they do this then i'll wait for it to be $20. They stated the release would be based on the international version, but considering how they're hurting for money I wouldn't put it past them.

In this last year or so, i've lost a considerable amount of respect for Square based on their decisions. Getting royally tired of them not listening to fans, and trying to penny pinch every single customer.
