WorthPlaying writes: "Megami Ibunroku: Persona: Be Your True Mind was originally was translated for the PlayStation 1 under the name Revelations: Persona. An early translation effort from Atlus, the game suffered heavily in translation. Characters and plot elements were drastically changed, entire plotlines were removed, the game underwent a number of changes, and the translation was generally silly and sub-par, even for the time. While it was a fun enough game for the era, Revelations: Persona has always remained a rather neutered game, and fans of the franchise couldn't help but lament that they never got the full and accurate version, especially after Persona 3 and Persona 4 drew more attention to the franchise. Fortunately, with the re-release of Shin Megami Tensei: Persona for the PSP, English-speaking players finally get a chance to play the original game in the series as it was meant to be played."
It goes without saying that the Shin Megami Tensei subseries, Persona, has become one of the most beloved RPG series in recent memory, but it didn’t start out that way.
Turn-based goodness.
Because it's the newest iteration and they learned from their past games. 2 reasons A-holes
The article is talking about the series as a whole, not just the newest one.....
That isnt always true.. Just look at the recent Mass Effect. Great game but some stuff definitely was better in previous versions.
SOUNDTRACK
INTRIGUING MYSTERIES
SOCIAL LINK SYSTEM
FANTASTIC CHARACTERS
STYLIZED ANIME-LIKE GRAPHICS

DISTRACTIONS THAT ACTUALLY FEEL MEANINGFUL
SUPERNATURAL ELEMENTS AND BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED CREATURES

SOOOOOOOOOO like the last few Persona games then?
Why mention Tales...let's see...
Both are JRPG's
Both have a long running series
Both are heavy in Anime
Not to mention the article is saying that Persona is the best RPG ever!
*gasp!!* Or...am I downplaying Sony and PS4 again??
While tales of Berseria is a good game, it doesn't even hold a Candle vs Persona 5.
It's a shame they didn't just talk about Shin Megami Tensai in general
Twinfinite Writes: With the release of Persona 5 we take a look at some absolutely stunning cosplay from across the long-running RPG series.
