make sure you get the PSP versions of Persona 1 and 2. they are BIG improvements over the PS1 versions.

JMPetrequin3727d ago

Are P1 and P2 good? I never hear them mentioned at all when discussing Persona. I mean I know they probably don't hold up to 3 or 4, but are they enjoyable in their own right?

dead_pixels3727d ago

Persona 1 has aged a bit poorly, but the PSP release really cleaned up the translation and made the game much more enjoyable than the PS1 port. Persona 2 is great, but if you plan on playing it be sure to get both Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment as they exist in a parallel universe and the overarching events that tie them together need to be seen to be appreciated.

Persona 3 for $4.99 is criminally low.

DCfan3727d ago

Persona 3 Director Says The Game Saved Atlus From Collapsing

The studio was on the verge of collapse when Persona 3 came out, and things were looking quite grim for Atlus. Regardless, many decisions made in the game paid off and became a staggering success.

Years ago, I was emulating the game on my laptop and the old thing died when I was about to get to the final boss. I'm more than happy to buy this remake when it comes out so I can finish it!

TheColbertinator259d ago (Edited 259d ago )

At the time I was immersed in SMT Nocturne and later DDS. I did not realize at all how important Persona would become for me years later.

Persona 3 FES was the first one that I played in the series. Looking forward to the remake.

I'll have to make this a mission the next time I blow through Tokyo.

Hopefully soon, given the limited availability.

Seraphim309d ago

send me one while you're at it. I mean what's better than Whiskey and Persona? A cigar with the two, and that would be perfection personified.

Remasters And Remakes Make Up 90 Percent Of 2023's Highest-Rated Games

Only one of the games on the top ten is completely original.

90 percent of Metacrtitic's top ten highest-rated games of 2023 so far are remasters and remakes, with Hi-Fi Rush acting as the only wholly original game to make the list so far.

We might only be in March, but it seems like we've already got tons of great games to be talking about, including Dead Space, Resident Evil 4, Hi-Fi Rush, Persona 4 Golden, and Metroid Prime Remastered. There is one commonality between those games, however - most of them are remakes and remasters.
