    And it belongs to a woman.

    I don't mean that in a negative way, of course.

    Funky student's mom?

    If her name doesn't begin with the word Foxy, I'm going to be horrendously disappointed.

    P3P Quick questions:
    Can Die for me! and Samsara be carried by fusion or they are exclusive to Alice/Daisoujou?
    And, exactly, how is defined the effectiveness of hama/mudo skills?

    Unless you have a modifier, Hama/Mudo have a 50% chance of working, and the upgraded versions are about 75%. (I think. That's how it worked in Strange Journey, anyway.) As for your other question, I don't know.

    Die for Me! can definitely be carried over in P3. Never tried Samsara but I assume it can as well. No skill is exclusive in P3 to my knowledge.

    Neither did I, until now.

    I'm still not even sure what genre it is myself.

    At first I thought basic RPG.

    Then they started focusing on solving puzzles in interviews(like it was the focal point), so I'm not so sure.

    The line is "survival horror/RPG", right? I could see it being a third-person action game with the focus being dealing with your surroundings or staying safe instead of fighting, maybe some Silent Hill or Ico sort of elements.

    I thought the clip around 2:00 in the first trailer might have been a moment of gameplay, but I'm probably wrong.

    Yep, the hunting music. It's played during a very short level in Maken X.


    Funny, most of the OST is extremely generic. Maybe my Meguro standards are too high.

    I'm seeking advice:

    I want to play Persona 4, but no longer have a PS2 (my launch-day system crapped out a couple of years ago). Should I suck it up and get another console, even if there are no other PS2 games that I want to play? Or should I hope for a P4P, since I'm already planning to get a PSP in order to play VC2 and P3P?

    PS2s are cheap, real cheap. I'd suggest it, p4 is better than anything on the psp atm.

    P4P seems really unlikely.

    IMO, Persona 4 is the best RPG in existence, so yes, I'd say it's worth picking up a PS2 for. A PSP is a worthwhile purchase too though since there's a lot of awesome games there.

    Get a PS2, they are dirt cheap, P4P is an unlikely prospect, and the PS2 library still has an absolutely massive array of excellent games regardless.

    Social link or battle wise? The first varies on opinion, the second is pretty much the usual stuff. Aim for weaknesses, don't delve too far too fast, because fluke deaths can and will happen, and always use Chie.

    It's okay, he kicked my ass too. Made me realize I'd been doing it all wrong and forced me to start over. But it was worth doing, because when I made it to him the second time I had a better understanding of the press turn system and how to exploit buffs/debuffs.

    As others have said, go for Fog Breath.

    Should I be doing this on my first playthrough? I mean, I just really wanted Pierce.

    It's not a true playthrough unless you go True Demon.


    Well, you could see a normal ending then go back to a prior save, but I wouldn't wish two runs of the Tower back to back on anyone during their first run.

    On my second, it was pretty easy.
