[B]This is it. It's not [I]Moonwalker[/I], and it's not the long-rumored posthumous game from MJJ Productions. Instead, the King of Pop and gaming are getting hitched post mortem with this special edition PS3.[/B]

Set for release in Japan later this month, the bundle will include a 120-GB PS3, Dual Shock 3 controller and a copy of the Michael Jackson doc, "This Is It" on Blu-Ray. The kit is priced at 33,500 yen (about $364 US).

The documentary, which was put together by longtime collaborator and "High School Musical" maestro Kenny Ortega, followed Jackson's rehearsals for his final, final farewell concert in London, which was pre-empted by the entertainer's demise. Sony acquired the rights to the movie, which has already grossed a quarter of a billion dollars worldwide, for $60 million.

While there's nothing that special about this special edition save the packaging, expect Japanese Jackson-manics to snap up more than a few of the bundles when it goes on sale January 27th.
