    Same here, and you can put a ton more >>>>between EP and Golden and insert the fighting game on the EP side of the middle of those.

    Arena is the one that interests me the most, actually. I'll definitely get Soul Hackers when it comes out too.

    I still haven't played IS yet so EP is out of the cards, while Golden is... uh.

    Kind of interested in Arena. I really want to see the story, but history has taught me that I generally don't like fighting games.

    Not interested at all in all the ports.

    Oh wow. I just noticed that 3 out of 4 of the upcoming MegaTen games are ports.

    Goddamnit, Atlus.

    Soul Hackers & P4 Vita I'll pick up at full price. EP & Arena, I'll wait for the bargain bin. I've already played EP and though it was neat at the time, much better SMT games have come out since. And I'm not much of a fighting game fan.

    On the other hand, they could be porting SH just so Atlus USA can bring it over.

    Basically.

    Hell, Persona 5 could be about a stoner college student and the rest of his friends who all lack direction and how they save the world for all I care. As long as it isn't high school.

    Or P5 could be just about the stoner dude and his wild imagination.

    Then again, I have never played P4 and bought a Vita mainly for P4 Golden, which has something to do with my order of interest.

    The original is already a great game, but the lack of a FeMC, while understandable, pretty much killed all interest I had in it.

  • NintenNinten Registered User regular
    I've just checked out the OP for P4: Golden.

    And it's horrendous.

  • LockedOnTargetLockedOnTarget Registered User regular
    A portable version of one of the best JRPGs ever made? Yes please I would like Golden.

  • EVOLEVOL Registered User regular
    I'd be more interested if I actually had a Vita, which I'm not planning to buy anytime soon.

    Persona Series Vita. It has every game in the series on it (well will when they all get released in NA).

    The original opening was introducing a new setting and characters. Golden's could be directed to current fans who know the characters.

    Also from a few pages back, I've had an idea of a L.A. Noire style side story game starring Naoto before. Looking forward to the light novel.

    Maybe P4:Golden will have both OPs when it ships, just like P3P had both the old and new.

    Wow, does have a Meguro vibe. Well, Koshiro is using live instruments for EO4, I heard. Shame, I think he's best without them.

    In other news, I've been playing some Devil Survivor 2 on my friend's US DS lite. Liking it so far, though it's pretty difficult. I actually had to run away from one or two battles..god damn enemies that can attack from 2 squares away :(

    There's voice clips of Hitomi/Nemissa(same VA?), Six, and Spooky.
    Mary hosts the site, so there's samples of her too.

    Waiting patiently for Victor.

    Yeah, Evil Wave can be annoying in the early game, but it can be countered by Ghost Wounds, which cuts an enemy team's movement in half AND reduces their range to 1.

    It's a welcome addition to the early game - Devil Survivor 1 did not have this particular racial skill.

    Also, I'm loving Devil Survivor 2. I appreciate the semi-lighthearted tone as compared to DS1.

  • FrozenzenFrozenzen Registered User regular
    DS2 is way more brutal with deaths overall though, while DS1 has a more dark tone in the game overall.

    Kinda like DS1 story more, but 2 has so many improvements to gameplay it makes it the better game.

    Random battle clip. 3d Enemies with animations, including "I'm going to die soon" animations. I'm liking that change.

    I really like the kaleidoscope effect and the Velvet Room part, but that's about it.
    The rest is less Persona 4 and more look what we added to Persona 4!

    Did someone direct it besides Hashino?

    P4G's opening isn't eye-meltingly bad or anything...but it's really not good. Probably the worst in the franchise in my opinion.

    It just seems rather lazy. Really lacking in the any of the artistry or imagination most of the other Persona openings have.

    It looks like an opening for a comedy-spinoff OAV pack-in or something...

    Oh my god, and I just realized at the 00:47 mark
    You can see Misuzu Hiiragi, Saki, and Morooka's corpses hanging from the wires

    ...Not really in good taste, if you ask me...considering how up beat the whole video is

    Who did the animation for P3 and P4 proper? Because I like that style better.

    If it was in-house,

    I know P4G's opening was done by Madhouse. P4's cutscenes were done by A-1 pictures. P3's cutscenes were done by Sunrise. P2P's openings were done by Satellite. Catherine's cutscene's were by Studio 4 Degrees C.

    So yeah, outsourcing tends to be pretty common, and Atlus isn't the only company who does it.

    Interesting. I like P3's aesthetics, but P4's quality. Combine the two and it's great.

    Catherine's, eh. The in-game was better.

    Gah, that fucking fight against Botis..had to restart so many times :?

    Eventually I just gave up on trying to crack all his sweet kills and just focused on finishing the mission. I beat it by sending 3 characters north and 1 south. The southern one basically acted as bait for Botis and the other 2 demons, drawing them away from the middle and then running the hell away while the other 3 beat the "boss".
