Final Fantasy X special edition to include speaker

[06.16.01] » Square targets the elusive "gullible audiophile" market.

   The previous special edition of Final Fantasy X featuring enhanced video sequences was canceled some time ago, but Square has come up with a new package to take its place. The "Beat Shock" edition of FFX includes the game and a very special speaker supposedly enhanced for Final Fantasy X.

   The advertisement below is marked "5.1," but whether this is implying the speaker somehow achieves all 5.1 channels in one box, or whether it's merely stating that it's meant to be used as part of a larger 5.1 system, is unclear. Since the whole package will sell for only 16800 yen, or $137, our bet is on the latter possibility.
