Persona 4 mentioned in Atlus company profile

Next-Gen? Not everything has to have the bells and whistles of next-gen to be appreciated. Everyway It doesn't faze me much..I'll play it on my 60 gigger.

BTW AKK: You need to play that game.

huzzah?

at least let it be as good, if not better than p3, and i'll be happy either way :D

DEAR GOD LET THIS BE TRUE!!!

...the news about P4.

OH FUCK YEAH. Finally someone that realizes not every game needs to be "next-gen" (i.e. shiny graphics on a weaker game, because they had to spend all their time on the blinding lighting effects).

Persona 3 already looks fine, I don't think moving it up to PS3 would really add much to it. The game has style, and the PS2 has enough power to express it reasonably. This is the same reason why games like Steambot Chronicles 2 and Disgaea 3 look like a joke on the PS3, when the obviously don't need to be.

I am so happy i don't have to buy s ps3 now

Why couldn't have Nippon Ichi have gone this route...?

Anyway, good news is good. Not every game needs to be on the next-gen systems, and the PS2 is a widely-owned system. I'm more surprised more developers aren't going this route, to be honest. Hopefully us in the Americas get P4 as well.

Persona 4?! PS2?! DO WANT!

I'm dying to play P3, and have yet to obtain a copy of it.

I'm in agreement with the majority of the above comments. There's really no need to put it on PS3. I'm actually kind of excited that it will be on PS2.

While I do agree that there is no real reason for Persona 4 to come out on PS3 and that it is perfectly fine on the PS2, Atlus is eventually going to have to make the jump to the next-gen systems.

This being the case, I think they should start getting some experience working with the PS3 and Blu-ray before they get left behind as a developer/producer. No one is expecting blockbuster graphics or effects, but that experience is important.

Hope they drop the random dungeon shit, that killed P3 for me.

That and the moon event bullshit, any game that puts some stupid shit in place to keep me from going further can blow me, you can tired of grinding or talking to the various idiots to raise the arcana rank, it would have been nice to have a choice to skip these days till the event.

Remove the A.I controlled party members, its total shit and never works, there isn't a single big company that has a designed a competent ally A.I so far, I doubt Atlus will be the first.

P3 has a good story but I didn't wanna slog through the horrid gameplay to get to it, hopefully P4 will fix the problems I had with P3, I doubt it though, Atlus is in a nice groove right now, they push out mediocre games WITH AMAZING ART ^_^ and they will sell, they've become Square Enix.

OMGZYAY!

*orgasms*

I honestly don't get why everyone loves Persona.
I think that Nocturne and DDS I & II are much better. Just a preference thing, I guess...

I hope so I love the Persona series.
