Very nice interview. Gives me lots of cause for optimism regarding SMTIV. "Social gaming will play a major part in Atlus and Index's future. We can expect Shin Megamitensei and Etrian Odyssey social developments this summer." This does not. See the current thread about LOZ. |

They never seem to really apply for over here, the social side to games. I can see it working in Japan where the market isn't as niche, but I'm lucky if I find anyone trade pokemon with these days never mind a Megami Tensei game.
Or have I misunderstood the social aspect.

Let's not ring the death knell on this just yet; Japanese games have been pretty good about making that social nonsense not be required for full enjoyment of their games.

"I felt a nameless dread. Well, there probably is a long German name for it, like Geschpooklichkeit or something, but I don't speak German. Anyway, it's a dread that nobody knows the name for, like those little square plastic gizmos that close your bread bags. I don't know the name for those either."

So I just realized Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers has a character named Masahiro Sakurai...
Er, coincidence?

Hopefully this just means SMT and EO Facebook Games or something, and not a bunch of goofy stuff messing with their main products. |

Persona 3 Film adaptation confirmedSo let me get this straight. We are getting a movie about modern day Jesus Christ dying for our sins with tons of fanservice. That's... cool I guess. ヽ(￣д￣;)ノ dunno

Pretty sure it is. That's his real name, he goes by the alias 'Spooky'. |

You've misunderstood me. I just seek your death only because you're in the way of my goal of world conquest. I can't help it that I have evil ambitions and am named Dark Lord. Honest.

When I played Revelations: Persona a decade ago I thought it wasn't very good. Now that I fuckin' love Persona 3 I'm curious about the recent PSP Persona games. Can anyone honestly recommend them, or should I just stick to the new class of more recent SMT games?
