    Dokapon is incredible if you have real life competition.

    It is super fun but if it's just you or just 2 people it's also pretty random and kind of annoying.

    Dokapon is FANTASTIC with 3 other friends a few beers, and about 3 hours available

    Ok, so Super Robot Taisen if I can borrow or get it dirt cheap, otherwise skip them. While I have one friend who is an Atlus fan, I doubt I could find another two who would join us. Thank for the info.

    Of course I still have EO3 and SJ in shrink wrap, but I'm just not feeling the love for them quite yet.

    Major update, lots of new character and Persona art.


    Really love the audio direction of the arrange music.

    I wonder what Jun's profile says.
    Are they even trying to hide the "big reveal" with him?

    I'm pretty sure they would, since they can't assume everyone played the original.
    Though the OP kind of hints at it.

    Well, they have said that while Persona 1 PSP is for people that played Persona 3 and 4, Persona 2 PSP is for people that played Persona 2.

    Even the website is dual audio; you can switch between Philemon's original and arrange themes.

    Way too tired to read Jun's profile for real, but it's the usual 'feminine high schooler who recently transferred to Kasugayama, likes flowers'. There's no HIS DAD IS HITLER or anything.

    P5 w/ college setting. Still hoping.


    Devil Summoner 5: Maya Amano VS The Soulless News Editor would also work.

    It is my dream that the rerelease of Persona 2 reignites the fires for oldschool Persona games and Persona 5 follows suit.

    So, bad-ass villains that don't have to be trying to "change everything for the better" but instead are pure evil and are all like, "I LOVE killing people!" ?

    The best you could really hope for is that they'll implement some of the better elements of P2 like having actual dungeons and multiple persona for secondary characters in a P3/4-style game.

    ...and everyone can use fusion skills? I could definitely live with that.

    I suppose I could deal with Persona 2 with Social Links.

    Who wasn't even Hitler to begin with. Making half of the IS 'controversy' all the more hilarious.


    Also, uh, P4's villain was pretty evil, in that there was no 'good' motives.
    He was just a dick.

    God, at least the pacing will be better.

    *shudders at the numerous dry spells of P3/4*

    I really like P3's pacing for the most part.

    P4... not so much. Once you rescue a victim, it's pretty much 'good job, let's wait for something to happen!'

    But at least you got two or three scenes every month in Persona 4. In Persona 3 it was a full moon in the first or second week of the month and then nothing for 20 more days.

    There's a slightly better sense of urgency because of the whole full moon thing. Afterwards, you can relax, for now.

    Not to mention that P3 gave the illusion that you had more time than you actually did... I still remember the dreaded "study month".

    Right, Persona 3 built up to the big event of the month, while Persona 4 started at the highest point, and wound down from there.

    I wanted to shoot Mitsuru for that. I'm already the smartest guy in the school, just let me save the damn world.

    Also, P5 having a college setting would motivate me to buy a PS3.

    It's just awkward to have "Yay - we rescued X!", and then "Now let's sit around and do some social links until the game let's me go forward."

    I dunno, I remember being bored in Persona 3 a lot more than I ever was in Persona 4.

    I guess that could be because the Persona 3 Social Links were almost entirely horrible (except for maybe two or three)
