Atlus offers pre-order goodies for Persona 4, Eternal Poison and Luminous Arc 2 photo

Atlus are great. They should know by now that their fanbase is so rabid that we will buy anything they put out anyway, but they choose to give us more than just the game, because they love to give to their fans. I know, I'm gushing. I'll stop.

If you preorder Eternal Poison, Persona 4 or Luminous Arc II through Gamestop, Amazon.com, EB Games or Game Crazy, you will also get the soundtrack CD and an art book for each respective title. These games come out in November and December, so you have time to stash the dollars until they actually come out.

I had planned to get Persona 4 and was contemplating Luminous Arc II as well, but this pretty much sold me on pre-ordering both. I'm such a sucker for art books. Are you going to preorder any of these?

[Thanks, Adam]

Ack, I still haven't played Persona 3. There needs to be more time in the day. Or I need to quit my job.

I started Persona 3: FES on Labor Day and am currently 60 hours in and wanting it to NEVER end. It's my first Persona experience and has basically convinced me to scrape together the funds for Persona 4.
Do want a Jack Frost plushie.

COLETTE (or anyone for that matter), can you confirm these artbooks and such will be at ALL EB Games locations and such? I too am a member of The Atlus Faithful and got the email, but I don't know how much of a guarantee this is, since I didn't get the Izuna 2 posters in Canada, and nor did I get the Yggdra Union soundtrack. If you or anyone else could confirm this, it would be greatly appreciated.

It was the Art Book and Soundtrack CD that made me decide to get Persona 3... now they're doing it all over again.

Dammit. It's like the Atlus execs were sitting around discussing how to get me, specifically, to buy Luminous Arc 2.

"Gen will buy it if we give him a free artbook! Surely he will!"

I didn't even like the first one, and now I'm going to pre-order the second because I'm a huge sucker. Dammit.

I already had pre-orders for P4 and Eternal Poison though.

Actually I just pre-ordered Luminous Arc II a couple of hours ago.
Now we wait.

This makes me so sad, they don't give us any of this stuff in the UK and we get the game a year late :( Why are Atlus and Nippon Ichi so good to the USA and so bad to to the UK? :(
Gen Eric Gui's Avatar - Comment posted on 09/17/2008 21:01
Gen Eric Gui
Coffeesash: Because neither has a base of operations in the UK? Talk to Koei.

Shin Oni: Atlus wasn't the developer of Thousand Arms, they just translated it.

I've contacted Koei several times at several email addresses about Disgaea stuff before and no reply at all.

fucking crap, why don't they do this to mainland-european chains? :-(

(prolly because no-one in europe buys their games, you can find them in the bargainbin if you're lucky :-) )

That may be because savvy European fans have already imported the games a year before they even think about releasing the games in Europe. It's a vicious cycle.

I'm so glad the PS3 is region free and not bound down by PAL/NTSC. Hopefully then it'd be easier for worldwide releases and obviously more copies sold due to customers not having to resort to modchips to play the games and be tempted by downloads.

I enjoyed the soundtrack and artwork from Persona 3 so count me in on this pre-order goodness.

I just wish the PS3 was backwards compatible with PS1 and PS2 games, too.

And Luminous Arc II was already coming packaged with the soundtrack as it was.

I think I'm going to go preorder P4 today

This is what I call fan service. Wish more companies were like Atlus. Can't wait for Persona 4
