Dissidia will also be downloadable photo

Dissidia: Final Fantasy joins the ranks of upcoming titles like Patapon 2 and LocoRoco 2 as all three will be released on both UMD and the PlayStation Store.

The fantasy Final Fantasy PlayStation Portable brawler is listed as both a UMD and download release on the official Tokyo Game Show Web page. My new buddy Jean Snow of Wired's Game|Life points out that importing this title has become even easier for those with access to a Japanese PlayStation Network account. 

We don't know anything about the pricing difference between the UMD and PSN versions yet, but I'd guess that people would opt to nab the UMD version if they were the same price, so the PSN version will probably be cheaper.

Jim said that Dissidia was pretty kick "arse" when he played it last week at the Tokyo Game Show. As for me, I missed it. I was not about to stand in that line. I can wait until December 18th!

Would you be interested in a Dissidia download? Or would you rather buy a hard copy?

I would assume the downloadable version would use less power (no UMD to spin) and be quieter.

I'll take the Downloadable Version of Dissidia for $500 Dale.

Good news for those who like downloadable games instead of UMDs. I'll probably stuck with the UMD, though.
