Considering how many characters there are from a lot of different anime, I'm guessing there won't be English voices in this game, just English subtitles?
I laugh at people who say that this game or that game isn't original. What makes you think you have the right to say that? It's probably a good idea to hold your criticism until after you actually play the game. Some people thought Star Wars was gonna be a flop. They look a little silly now, don't they?
I skipped all of the info because I don't wanna know TOO much before playing. I just skimmed to see if they hinted at a release date and I was saddened that they didn't
@ShogunRok I completely forgot about the Digimon game. Fingers crossed on that one. I feel like I'm littering this site with my Persona propaganda but, once again, I'll just say I can't wait for it!
@wittypixel that's true but I don't blame people who buy them because of friends. The reason I bought Battlefield 4 is because people I worked with played it. I ended up enjoying it but I probably wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't for them. Another group I blame is the group of "gamers" that play COD on YouTube just to get a few views. Ridiculous
As long as these franchises like COD keep getting ratings like 8.5 to 9.5 they'll keep making them. It reinforces their mindset that they HAVE to release one every year. Sports games are a bit different though. Every offseason comes with huge changes like players changing teams and rookies. Yes, EA could just release roster updates every year but they wouldn't make any money that way. And it costs a lot to make those games
@JaxonH I'm right there with you. I was never into JRPG's until I got a Vita. I looked up highest rated Vita games because I didn't have any. I went to Gamestop and bought a game I had never heard of until then, Persona 4 Golden. The box art made me wonder why I was buying it, but after I started playing it I couldn't put it down. Since then I've played over 2 dozen JRPG's and I have more in my backlog. They're awesome!
@Mrskinner I doubt it. But you really should. Some of the best games you'll ever play. I like to say it's pokemon for adults. That might be a stretch but that's all I got. Haha.
I love what I saw. I knew it was gonna be darker than P4 because of the use of red in this game, and I like how that ties in. I can tell this story line is going to be amazing. I'm just wondering though, does the protagonist "transform" into the phantom using his persona or does he just slip on the mask and go from there?
Nanakooooo! I don't want to spoil it for anyone so I'll just say this.. During the part of the game where she is involved, that's one of the most tear-jerking moments in gaming history for me. I'll leave it at that.
@SteveButler2210 I didn't say the band would be classic, the song will be. It spent 87 weeks on the billboard charts. A lot of their songs are good but this one was on a totally different level
@get2sammyb I wouldn't be surprised if that song is called a classic 20 or so years from now. I'll feel old when they do, but it definitely deserves the title
I showed the intro to my mom just so she can see how emotional it is. She's always thought games were dumb but this had her jaw on the floor. She said "How can they have this in a game?" I said if they can have it in a movie why can't it be in a game? Games these days are basically interactive movies
It really has to have a balance of openness and content. Fallout 3 was an amazing game that I thought did a great job with this. Sure, some journeys across the wasteland were long but you had ghouls and Raiders to deal with along the way. Some games try to hard though and that's a big turn off
@ShogunRok you're right. At least it's not someone who wanted to just jump aboard now and try to write the script. Plus this game has such an amazing plot and setting.. I think it has real potential
I think this movie has potential, but they gotta be really careful. Like you said, this game takes almost 20 hours to complete, so the character progression and plot have to fit into that 2 hour timeframe. Video game movies have a bad track record but I hope they can pull it off
To be honest I don't want to know any plot details or character details because I want to play the game as if I was the main character. Not knowing what's going on or who's involved. I just wanna know a release date for the West. Surely they'll cover that in 30 hours, right? I'm not holding my breath
I'm very excited about this. One thing I was hoping next gen consoles would be able to do is be able to handle a LARGE amount of people in one game. I know PC has been doing it for a long time but consoles haven't been able to handle it until now. It's awesome
I love that tactical nukes in MW2 are several people's number one moment. That's still my favorite online game ever. How about a remaster of that on PS4?!
@get2sammyb I think by the time E3 comes or during E3 we'll have a set release date for Uncharted 4 but I predict we'll see a teaser of some sort about TLOU 2. Maybe not much, but just something to get people excited about it
At the beginning of the year I predicted Sony would hold their own event for their 20th anniversary and they would have a collectible card set at that event... Nailed it!
Here's the bottom line: Sony is millions ahead of MS and they've done it sticking to their plan. MS has had to scramble to catch up and they've lost money that Sony hasn't had to spend. Sony won't care if they catch up as long as they don't have to spend any extra money to win people over
Was I the only one who voted for Tales of Xillia 2? Well I guess I'm not shocked considering all of the awesome PS4 titles. I just loved that universe so I was pumped for the second one to come out
I loved this article. Music has always been a passion of mine and soundtracks of games have always been a big part of the experience for me. The one that has always stuck with me is Persona 4 Golden's soundtrack. Every track made me smile and I actually use a few of them as ringtones. I have the entire soundtrack on my iPod. Classic stuff
External hard drive support would be great. I tried to install COD advanced warfare and I was out of space. I didn't think I had that much stuff on it! 500 GB sounded like a lot at first but the size of games these days makes it not so impressive
He couldn't be happy with the fact that the stones were neatly wrapped and packaged? Set those pristine pebbles in your garden and I'm sure you'll get tons of attention. I'd pay 399.99 for those babies....... (Waits for laughter)
@ThomasOlano86 I have been more open minded lately about games and have found that I like more kinds than I thought I did. I guess saying that I don't like those kind of games was the wrong choice of words. I should say that I haven't given them a chance in the past but I want to try this one because it looks so good.
I got a gift card for a game and I'm strongly considering Dragon Age Inquisition. I don't know why but I really wanna try the game even though I'm not usually into those kind of games. It has great reviews so I might go for it

May I say that Persona 5 was the headliner this week? That trailer is legit. But I'm worried that we wont get a release date any time soon.
