melmer Posted November 24, 2013 Persona 5 is being announced in 30mins Watch: http://www.twitch.tv/IshamaruIsorath The countdown has been catalogued quite nicely on gaf: http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=719897 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted November 24, 2013 Fingers crossed it'll be a next gen title, although I'm not holding out hope. I've heard rumours that's its just going to be Persona 4 part 2 which I wouldn't be too happy about. Hopefully this'll be a completely new set of older characters, or bring back an older Persona 3 cast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted November 24, 2013 Is a persona 3 / persona 4 cross over RPG Complete melt down on gaf 3 games were shown: Persona Q - RPG - 3DS Persona 4 Arena 2 - 2d fighter - PS3 Persona 4 Dancing all night - rhythm game - vita Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted November 24, 2013 holy living fuck guess I have to finish both those games now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted November 24, 2013 Yeah that's the problem for me too, I only got about 1/3 of the way through both games. So I'd be completely lost playing a sequel to both. People are still holding out hope for a persona 5 announcement :-/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted November 24, 2013 This has completely crippled gaf I just jumped back into the twitch stream and saw the words 'person 5' appear on screen for a split second.... Is this real life Yes, people are announcing person 5 on ps3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted November 24, 2013 It was announced for winter 2014, for the Playstation goddamn fucking 3 2015 YEAR OF THE PS3 THIS PROPHECY HAS COME TO PASS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted November 24, 2013 also worth noting: the 3DS gets a Persona 3/4 crossover RPG and the Vita gets a Persona dancing game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=M5BIRWiifo8 UNBELIEVABLE COULD YOU IMAGINE THE STEP?

JonCole Posted November 24, 2013 Keep in mind that Persona 4 was released on PS2 in 2008. So, if you thought for even a second that Persona 5 would arrive in 2014/15 on PS4 your head was in the clouds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted November 24, 2013 Yeah I had no doubts it would be a current gen game, should look absolutely gorgeous, hopefully they can keep the loading times down Loading times have always been the absolute killer for me in 3 and 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted November 24, 2013 Didn't they do the same thing with P4,releasing it for the PS2? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted November 24, 2013 Yeah it came out super late on the PS2. To Wikipedia...... Persona 4 JP July 10, 2008 NA December 9, 2008 EU March 13, 2009 Playstation 3 console Release date JP November 11, 2006 US November 17, 2006 EU/AUS March 23, 2007 So around 2 years into the life of the PS3 (I actually thought it was longer than that, it sure felt like it in the UK) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subbes Posted November 24, 2013 Excited for Q, except it will doubtless use the wrong voice actress for Chie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sno Posted November 25, 2013 Persona Q is apparently being designed by some of the Etrian Odyssey dudes, which maybe explains the chibi art. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JonCole Posted November 25, 2013 The name of Persona Q is apparently an homage to the Japanese name of Etrian Odyssey, which abbreviates to "SQ". I learned this from Jeremy Parish's somewhat deep dive analysis of the Atlus thing, very interesting stuff indeed - http://www.usgamer.net/articles/atlus-goes-all-in-on-persona Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hermie Posted November 25, 2013 I'm strangely excited for more Persona, having only watched the Giant Bomb endurance run. Is that invalid? I really want to play P4 for myself, but I can't due to the platforms it is released on; PS2 and Vita. It's frustrating, because I have the two in between ones, PS3 and PSP. =( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dewar Posted November 25, 2013 Persona 3 is on PSP I believe. I've been thinking about picking it up for a while, this crossover business might make it worth it. I also need to get Persona 4 Arena 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JonCole Posted November 25, 2013 Persona 3 FES is a PS2 classic, and Persona 3 Portable is on PSP and compatible with Vita. P3FES is actually $5 on the PSN Store right now, so that's where I picked it up for play on my PS3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dewar Posted November 25, 2013 Oh, I forgot you could do that. I really need to get my PS3 hooked up somewhere where I can use it more often. It's brand new and I've played maybe 4 hours with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miffy495 Posted November 26, 2013 I'm in the endgame of Persona 3 Portable. I've been playing it off an on for about 2 years now. I even transferred the game and save to my Vita from the PSP. It's really worth playing, but also one of the biggest time investments I've ever made in a game. I will be done it in time for the release of these, which excites me! I have also watched the GB Endurance Run, so I'm all up on my story. Plus, I have Golden on my Vita waiting for when I'm done with P3P. As a guy who does not get into JRPGs, I really like these games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tanukitsune Posted November 26, 2013 On 11/24/2013 at 10:13 PM, subbes said: Excited for Q, except it will doubtless use the wrong voice actress for Chie. I follow the original voice actress and she changed her avatar to a chibi Chie, but I don't remember if she officially announced it? I don't know what to think of having a Persona RPG on the 3DS, while the Vita gets a dancing game... I'm fortunate to have both systems, but I'm pretty sure the average Persona fan doesn't? I know Atlus works for several systems, but Persona has always been a Sony exclusive, right? But seriously... a dancing game? Atlus, you were lucky I took a gamble and took the risk of buying your crazy block game Catherine, but a dancing game? Nope, I have no sense of rhythm, so I can't even play them.

JonCole Posted November 26, 2013 I feel like the average Persona fan (at least in the US) is a hardcore gamer who owns every platform known to man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
