I've been keeping up with this too by reading the thread on the GameFAQS forums (terrible place, but it has its uses, right?).
It's very surprising news, if you ask me. I honestly never expected FES to come here, so I went ahead and completely spoiled myself on the plot.
Alas.
Still looking forward to it, of course, if it does actually come out.
Considering I haven't even started the game yet, maybe I should have waited before buying Persona 3...
Like so many turn based RPG's, I wanted to like Persona 3, but found it to be a chore for the first two hours, and haven't played it since.
I know I'm probably missing out, but I can't bring myself to play a game where the fun times are so few and far between.
FUCK. YES.
scape don't worry theres 2 sets
one where it has the game and fes on one disc
and the other that loads fes with your old copy of persona 3
( like the dynasty warriors expansions )
Woot!
Tron Knotts, yes, P3 has it's downfalls: it chugs and sputters a little while after the starting whistle, and while the dungeon crawling was broken up nicely by the socializing, it still can get pretty monotonous when the game doesn't bait enough for you to enter Tartarus. yet, the game is a shining example of how you can spin the old new again. the dialogue makes a nice split between drama and actual teenage whining and profanity. when given a choice of how to respond, it's not your usual GOOD, EVIL and NEUTRAL responses. you tell the person how you feel, they get pissed off, and it's okay! hell, it's refreshing when you go in for a hug and get a cold shoulder! P3 can be a great tool for people who need a coping concept. P3 really is worth the another look. ACTIONBUTTONDOTNET has a P3 review that's a pretty good read!
I feel like Persona 3 is one of those games I wont play until I get my legs mangled in a horrible car accident and can't go to work for 76 months, or until my fiance dumps me, or I retire at age 80. I felt the same wat about Disgaea, Final Fantasy XII, Fire Emblem, and tons of other high quality turtles.
I know P3 is a good game, just like I know the English Patient is a good move. But I can't prioritize it over more short term forms like Tim and Eric: Awesome Show Great Job.
Just for starters, tomorrow Phoenix Wright 3, Zak and Wiki, Mega Man ZX Advent, and Rondo of Blood for the PSP are coming out. All those games give me near instant gratification, Phoenix with the humor, Zak and Wiki with the wacky puzzles, Mega Man and Rondo with the fast paced 2D action. In minutes, not hours, those games deliver the goods.
How can P3 compete with that?
man cannot live by bread alone ;)
