Rake out your PS2 next month - a game that doesn't involve singing or answering pointless trivia questions is coming out and it's bloody good.
Persona 3 from Koei was very well received in the US, where it recently went on sale, and it'll be hitting UK stores on February 29.
The studio was on the verge of collapse when Persona 3 came out, and things were looking quite grim for Atlus. Regardless, many decisions made in the game paid off and became a staggering success.
Years ago, I was emulating the game on my laptop and the old thing died when I was about to get to the final boss. I'm more than happy to buy this remake when it comes out so I can finish it!
At the time I was immersed in SMT Nocturne and later DDS. I did not realize at all how important Persona would become for me years later.
Persona 3 FES was the first one that I played in the series. Looking forward to the remake.
Half-Glass Gaming: "Often considered one of the darker entries in Atlus' Persona series, Persona 3 definitely has a sinister vibe to it, and it leans into horror more than you might realize."
Even though Persona 4 and 5 are monumental leaps over Persona 3, a crucial aspect has been lost in the transition.
That's a good point I didn't really think of but it lends to the narrative a lot more than P5 for sure. I also enjoy how much more streamlined the game is and how it doesn't have a 13 hour tutorial.
and so addictive (getting new personas all of which are based off of "real life" mythology in true SMT fashion). Buy this game - you will not be disappointed.
damn i didn't know an english version was already out
double post!
Anyone who didn't play this game do yourselves a favor and go buy it the day it's released, the only other good game in Feb (I think) for Europe is DMC4.
Well it's about damned time! I was reading about this back before Christmas and I'm so going to buy it for my PS3 when it comes out!
