GameZone: "While I completely understand the impulse many of you might be having being Persona fans, wanting to buy this game immediately rather than wait for the American localization, my suggestion is definitely wait. While it is entirely playable without understanding Japanese, you're really missing out on basically one half of the entire experience, since you won't get much out of the story, outside of some cursory observations. Yes, it's mostly fan service, but the fact that a storyline exists, in a rhythm game no less, further proves that Atlus cares about this brand, and even more so, its fans."
The Persona Dancing game vinyl soundtracks include soundtracks from Persona 3: Dancing in the Moonlight, Persona 4: Dancing All Night, and Persona 5: Dancing in the Starlight.
MonsterVine: "Persona 4: Dancing All Night is a surprisingly satisfying continuation of the Persona 4 story. Dancing All Night takes advantage of its incredibly odd idea and weaves a somewhat meta but always interesting story that manages to feel like a worthy Persona sequel."
Rob Pitt writes: There are very few games out there which would suit a rhythmic game based around their soundtrack. The Persona franchise is perfect for this immortalisation as their soundtracks have all been incredibly memorable and so catchy you’ll find yourself humming and singing them long after you’ve stopped playing.
The Persona 3 and 5 Endless Night Collection comes in two variations, the PS4 and the PS Vita editions. The main difference being that the PS4 version contains a remastered download of Persona 4: Dancing All Night, a game which was previously exclusive to the PS Vita.
So, whether you’re a Persona fan or new to the franchise – if you enjoy rhythmic games such as Hatsune Miku, Rock Band, FF Theatrhytm, or even Osu, you need to check these games out.
Having previously played Persona 4: Dancing All Night on Vita, I was excited for the Persona 3 and Persona 5 versions. That is, until I found out they don't have story modes. The music in this games is good but not fantastic to warrant a rhythm game. The draw of P4 was exactly its story mode, that was interesting, long, and made up for the low quantity of songs. Without a story mode, the low quantity of songs become an even bigger problem for P3 and P5.
Maybe I'll buy them only when they get deep discounts.
