Are you one of the many people who played Persona 3 last year and proclaimed it the new king of RPGs? Looking forward to the upcoming release of Persona 4 so you can get your social-link dungeon crawl on?

Well, this game is almost nothing like that.

Persona 2: Innocent Sin, the Japan-only prequel to the American-released Persona 2: Eternal Punishment will have a translation released on October 15th! Though it may be nothing like its years-later successor, it does meld classic RPG gameplay with a myriad of systems and ideas that you've never played before (conversing with demons during battle, for example).

So start up those torrents; you only have 26 days to get those ISOs on your desktops and to warm up your emulators and PSPs. Maybe this year's greatest RPG will actually be 1999's.

P.S. I demand Yojimbo add me on PSN, so that we may "Wipe Out" as they say.
