As per usual, this is your one-stop shop for all discussions SMT and/or Persona, DemiKids, Devil Summoner/Survivor, etc., related.
New P3P Boxart:
And infos:
- A completely new female S. Link (Rio Iwasaki) associated with the sports teams, Tennis or Volleyball.
- Another new female character S. Link, Saori Hasegawa (perhaps replacing the Kenji "Best Friend Schoolmate" type?)
- Ken S. Link with female MC
- Akihiko S. Link with female MC
- A screen from the female perspective shows the School Council president on the rooftop. If he's an S. Link, this is the first screen that's showed an arcana conflict for a specific MC, so something is likely to change.
- Another screen shows the female MC on one of the Koro walk scenes, meeting the helmet teacher (who has artwork now). Didn't you only meet party members or S. Links during the walks? He could be the replacement for the Hermit S. Link for the male MC, as that one was kind of gender specific.
- Dating scenes with Theodor.
- Generic character blurbs for Ahihiko, Ken, and Fuuka
Most of the hottest news involves the most popular SMT side-series, Persona, so some stuff on that:
Persona 3 Portable includes a new female protagonist, more Persona(namely a female Orpheus[Eurydice?]), and most likely new social links.
I assume the game will mostly be unchanged, aside from different dialogue and links.
Will the infamous ending stay the same for P3F?
Let's hope not.
The interface has been slightly(okay, drastically) modified for P3P. Instead of moving around freely, most everything done outside of Tartarus will be done with menus.
The battles should be unchanged, far as I can tell.

Also, P3F will include a shiny pink interface, as opposed to P3M's dominate blue.
Will Junpei be her Yukari? Doesn't take an ace defective to figure that one out.
Whether or not the changes are to your liking, the new OP is all kinds of hot:

It's due for a November release in Japan. For us? I guess we can only wait and see.
Until then, don't forget about what the US does have coming in September:
Though the PSP rules Persona, the DS still gets a little love from old-school SMT:
Not to mention the preexisting:
I might touch this up in the future, because I had to make this somewhat suddenly(thanks Apotheos :P), but until we hear about the US release of P3P,
Also, everyone convince Apotheos to finish P3 proper. He's got time.

And the alternate thread title is "It is a topic. Something pushes a button."

Oh, and:
(Sadly I do not have the original. And I want it so.)

So, I just now noticed the "It is a title screen. Something pushes a button."
I realize that I am quite slow, but that is amazing.

I have part of it.
You know that is one dead beastie.
I can't remember where I saw the full version at.
Atlus' MB?
Also relevant
Who needs evokers?
It was also in the original Persona 3, taken out of the US version.
I actually picked up a PSP about a week ago, and I was already a huge fan of P3, so you can imagine the bits of news here make me VERY happy. My point of curiousity is this: Is character development / character interaction strong in the DS games for SMT? Those are my biggest selling points for games, and I'd need a pretty strong reason to justify buying a DS at this point in time, besides "it has more Atlus games to devour your time" (It's close, but just not enough)
That work for ya?
FES. I heard that

I've been on the highest floors, I just didn't know if there were certain enemies or things to do to help it go faster. I didn't max Emperor but I think it is pretty close. I kind of played the game blind and without a guide for the majority of it, so I may not have done the best Maxing of S.Links.
I will also try to take down the Reaper then and see how things go from there.
Generally, the best xp gains on any given level are from turning up green vine/growth cards on elite/red fights. I levelled through most of p3 just getting one or two levels each from those.

Yes, you should, especially 3. Girl edition.
edit: oh, wait, DS. Those would be straight games, which would be significantly different but still fun. Also, a PS2 + FES is definitely worth the $120 at most.
It really does. It's pretty much a movie.
I really only noticed this when I watched the giantbomb endurance run. Even though the intro is really long I still enjoyed it a lot during, it was much better than the intros of most RPGs.
Funny, I found it just as average and boring as most. I mean it was still me waiting 30-60 minutes before actually getting to do anything significant.
Well most of my enjoyment came from the surprisingly good VA.
I think it takes longer in P4 but that they maybe just because I played it more recently
XBL, Steam & Tribes: elmartino333
Yeah, the intro was great because they did a great job of laying the story out and introducing the main characters. Since Social Links and the camaraderie of the core group are vital to the game, I don't think it would quite be the same without it.
Am I just having terrible luck?
Also useful is to have someone else Switch (Avatar ability) with Kaido as he'll never take Kudlak below 1 HP. Also, Kudlak can be petrified so it's worth a try to do that if nothing else is working. Otherwise, just have your dudes get Kudlak down as much as possible without killing him. It's a really annoying battle, but nothing unbeatable

Odin Sphere has it beat. It even has spotlights.
Well, do tutorial intros count? Because nobody beats KH2 in that regard.

Anyway, about how long is the original Persona? There's so much stuff coming out next month that I'd like to know what kind of investment I'm looking at for it.
Man...I mean I usually agree with you about a lot of stuff, but that is where I cross the line.
Though, I don't wish to hijack the Persona thread so I won't say any more.
