Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey is so good that it has actually interrupted my Final Fantasy XIII game play sessions. I like it that much. It’s the first can’t-put-it-down RPG that I’ve played in a long time. Oh, and it’s long. Holy crap. This is a DS RPG like no other.
If you’re anything like me, you’ve already pre-ordered the game, which is set to release on March 23rd. If you haven’t, now’s a good time, as Atlus informs that there will be a limited supply mini poster by artist Kazuma Kaneko. It features the crew that you’ll work with and fight alongside in the alternate dimension known as the Schwarzwelt. Mind you, this poster deal is a GameStop exclusive. Both online and in-store preorders are valid, while supplies last.
Even if you don’t get the poster, you’ll still get the included collector’s box and soundtrack CD.
Look for my review very soon. Seriously, though: SMT fans, you have to get this game. If you liked Nocturne, you’ll eat this up.
