Persona 3 FES released on PSN, go grab it.

Everybody should grab this its like the best video game ever, don't get thedowngraded PSP version first, it really hurts the experience and is inferior in every possible way

Once you finish this get Persona 4, don't bother with crap like DDS or nocturne they are mediocre games

[QUOTE="Bigboi500"]DDS and Nocturne are great games, but only for the strategy and difficulty, they lack interesting characters and the interactions of the Persona games. Digital Devil Saga 1 & 2 and Nocturne should be avoided by all except the most dedicated RPG players.

Nah the games are just bad, there is no excuse for them having terrible stories, bland characters, ugly art style and boring gameplay

Just downloaded it. Gonna play a little before work and either pick up where I left off when I get home, or keep going with Xenoblade Chronicles. I can't lose either way, as this is my first playthrough for both games.

It sounds hard to believe in the age of the internet and ease of access to guides and faqs, but I've literally never used a guide for a game in my 20 years as a gamer. I get the idea that it would ruin some of the fun, honestly. :P

@Assassin_87, I noticed you're playing DA:O on the 360. Why is that though when you have a pc?

I started playing DA:0 on 360 before I built my PC back up to gaming-ready standards. That's the long and short of it, really.

excellent price for such an awesome game, better than any other JRPG to grace us this gen, now they just need Persona 4lamprey263

Gonna have to pick this up when I get my next pay check. Is this a sale, or the permanent price?

Oh sweet. Don't go to PSN store very often so that's good to know. P3 Fes for 10 bucks really is a steal.

most of my games in my collection from Snes to PS3 are Jrpgs and I have played many other obscure games like Xak III, Shining the Holy Ark, etc. but one series that I have never understood why it is so revered is the SMT series. Every one of their games are as boring as they are archaic. Only appeal I see in them is the mix of a modern time setting with dark fantasy themes and nothing more. Catherine has been the only game coming from that team that is worth the time if you ask me.

CAn you play the PSP version on PS3? Seems like something you should be able to do. I'm guessing no.. Oh well gonna pick this up :)

Been playing Xenogears... It's decent but not quite godly like people describe.

After playing P4, going back to P3 feels wrong

dats just weaboo crap and I ain't no weaboo sack of dogsh!tTheFallenDemon

Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaakkkeeee.

One of the best games I've ever played :)

Mediocre game. Get the two Digital Devil Saga games on PSN instead.

[QUOTE="edo-tensei"][QUOTE="Aljosa23"]lol is this a joke post? Have you played any other SMT games? Persona 3 FES and 4 are VERY dumbed down compared to past games and they're worse off for it.

I'm curious, what exactly did 4 simplify from 3? Adding full party control?

Pray_to_me

I wouldn't say they are bad. Sure the story in Nocturne is nonexistent, the characters are boring. On the other hand I do enjoy the gameplay and dificuty that the game provides. DDS was a huge improvement gameplay wise, characters and especially story. As for the art styles I loved the styles from the older MegaTen titlesjasonharris48

I will burn my dread

Chris_Williams

a good thing for FES than P3P is you can control Aigis(on her story mode for knowing wat happened on that emo guy)

[QUOTE="edo-tensei"]The overall difficulty of 3 was toned downed in 4 as well as things like the "TIRED" systems were completely change. Things were more stream-lined like only introducing "one" physical attack type, and other things like skill cards, which made things that much easier. The dungeons themselves were much more simplified compare to the tower of P3 and FES. It seems you're unexperienced with these games.Aljosa23

Arguing about the differences of 3/FES and 4 is a lesson in futility since it ultimately doesn't matter. Those games are hugely dumbed down from the god game SMT: Nocturne and its disciplies DDS 1 and 2. lol the Persona games even have a lame battle system that pales in comparison to the Press Turn system. Nevermind that the actual artstyle in Persona 3 and 4 is meant to appeal to Japanophiles and otakus and can't hold a handle to Kazuma Kaneko's amazing designs.

lol your last line is pretty funny. Questioning my credibility because I don't circle-jerk the Persona series like others, lol.

Oh my, your tastes in cartoons is so unconventional. You must be an interesting person.

Xenogears is one of those games that gradually builds up as it goes on.

I actually liked P3 FES more than 4. P4 might have had its persona elements alot more intertwined. The structure and general atmosphere in P3 was just felt alot more compelling: Having those deadlines just added a little more weight and urgency, having that one tower seemed alot more daunting and mysterious to find out what is at the very top and the in-between scenarios were just alot more engaging: from that whorehouse, the dead train carriage and other occult elements that took place in different areas outside of P4s TV.illmatic87
