Destructoid - Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena preview

Allistair Pinsof writes: As a videogame geek, there are some mash-ups between developers and franchises you dream about happening. Sometimes they happen (Marvel vs. Capcom), sometimes you wish they didn’t happen (Ehrgeiz) and sometimes they never happen (Secret of Mana vs. Final Fantasy: Beach Battle Blitz).

Although Arc System Works making a Persona fighting game long lived on as only a wish, it has now become a reality. And, thank God for that because it’s shaping up to be an incredible fighting game that has the potential to reach beyond the Persona 4 fanbase while speaking to it directly.

Chie Satonaka: One Weeping Man’s Affectionate Reminiscence on his Sensei’s Unbeatable Hurricane Kick

Sumthing.com writes:
Something happens though with Chie about thirty hours into the game, where I was actually driven to tears. Remember Persona 4 is a dungeon crawling, turn-based role-playing game, each member of your team takes a shot at trying to KO the game’s assorted enemies: miniature slimes, Golgotha demons and twelve headed Harpsichord minions. You’re not always going to win, and frequently you will be knocked down. This particular turn, my light magic failed (or whatever), and in turn the possessed water bearer (or whatever) flattened me to the concrete. I am dizzy, and if I am hit again the game is over and with it about an hour’s worth of progress. Then out of nowhere… Chie comes over to my character to help me up, asks me if I am okay, and extends her hand. This is important, as Chie has just become human. This moment, it’s so gentle, I can feel the weakness of my character, his feeble trembling fingers being enveloped and steadied upright by the strength of this girl’s tiny, wiry wrists. Her voice carries over pollution, over the blinding track-light, muting all inherent danger. Chie is a strength I cannot myself attain.

You forgot the; "The ingame battle ability that's called "helping up", which lets a party member help out another party member that's knocked down on their butts to get up so that they won't get automatically hit with a critical next turn, fleshed out this one specific party member as a character to me, eventhough every single other party member can also use the same ability."

Truly the worst thing I've read in a while.

Didn't read. Great Wall of China text.
Chie's awesome. I personally liked her new P4G VO (who did Nazz in Ed, Edd, and Eddy). P4G was perfect. 'Nuff said.

Rather this article than the regurgitated fan boy flame bait trolling trash that plagues this place tbh. I think it's fairly obvious the author is quite young, cut him a bit of slack, he could have gone and posted some generic 4>1 BS.

Well I like Chie too, she is my fav character in P4. Although I doubt I would have blogged about it. Lol
