Many people recently have picked up their copies of Persona 4 the Golden for their Vita and Persona 4 Arena only to look back in wonder about the other games in the series. Collecting the other titles in the franchise however is quite expensive. Well, it looks like Atlus is looking to throw you all another bone.
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.
P3: FES for $5? Bought.
if you don't own Persona 3, now is the time to get it! It is the greatest JRPG of all time (and consistently one of the highest rated). Forget Final Fantasy (yeah I said it...nostalgia just doesn't stand up to the test of time anymore).
Atlus > SqueEnix
persona 2 for cheap hell yeah! the only persona game I haven't played yet.
I'm still hoping for a Nocturn release.
I never got to beat Persona 3... Might get P3P for my Vita.
