I'm not usually the type to play video games, but this game completely sucked me in and kept me interested throughout. I liked how there were some options that could change different outcomes between the main character and the other characters in the game. All of it was amazing. It's also a great game for a girl, which you can't find many of.

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers

This game is a pure gem. I know, what a corny way to start a review. If anyone has read my review of Fate/Extra, they will see how much I absolutely adore this game. Thing is, this game is great; I would have to say one of the best games I have ever had the privilege of playing. The game forms a emotional bond with the player that it sunders once you have spent 100+ hours of your life playing it (I spent 101 hours, 53 minutes on my first play-through). Fret not, though. Once you have beaten the game once, you have New Game Plus to twiddle around with. And that isn't even the cool part; you can swap in your male uniform for a skirt and play as a female in what is said to be an alternate universe from the original P3 story (only difference being that the MC is a female). Woah, there. I haven't even gotten to the amazing story, have I?

Hah, I have no idea what makes this story so great. Perhaps it is a plethora of things, all executing into one great game for the “M crowd”. Side note, I have no idea really why the ESRB just decided to be weird and rate this game 'M' when CERO rated it 'B', which is for younger teens. But I can sympathize with the ESRB; the game has a dark story that some children and younger teens cannot fully understand.

The game takes place on the man-made island of Iwatodai. You play a Male (or female) transfer student, an orphan, moving to Iwatodai for unknown reasons. The night of your arrival,you notice some creepy things, as your train arrived late. There are coffins littering the street and a eerily large moon hovering above you. You seem to be the only one out at this hour, a strange thought that you soon dismiss as nothing. Upon your arrival at the Iwatodai dorm room,a strange little boy meets you and asks you to sign a contract (this is where you get to choose your name as well). Then, suddenly, a girl (Yukari Takeba) readily aims a gun at you. A few seconds later, you identify yourself and the lights come back on,the coffins disappear and the moon returns to normal. Your character wants to know what happened, but he is tired from his big move. He soon retires to his room and sleeps. Fast forward a couple of weeks. The Dark Hour is reviled as you have discovered your ultimate potential, Persona. The persona is a reflection of your inner psyche, a Mask, as it is called in the other games of the series. Your team mates only have one, but you can change your Persona all the time, making you special.

The true colors of this JRPG soon shows, as you enter the labyrinth, Tartarus every night. Battles are done beautifully. They are turn-based. You choose your move by selecting an option on the “Battle Wheel”. You can choose to attack, use a skill, change Persona, organize team members, guard or escape. You also have the option to select an enemy and have your support team-mate (Mitsuru or Fuuka) scan them so you can exploit their weakness. Once you have done so, the enemy is knocked down, allowing you to attack again or making it possible for an “All out attack”. Once the battles are over, a little mini-game of sorts ensues where you can choose a minor arcana card (HP restore, exp multiply, a new Persona, or a new weapon. Conversations between people are done in a “Visual Manga” type style, but most are fully voiced by good voice actors. The game is insanely customizable, too, with plenty of costumes! For example, the girls on your team can all be wearing maid outfits or summer bathing suits. The team is vast as well, with team mates like a Dog and a Robot (names withheld; you'll have to play to find out!).

While there really are no bad things to the game, there were small quirks I noticed. For example, a minor glitch in the game, once Theodore, the male velvet room assistant, said something completely in Japanese to me (Pictured below). I have no idea why this occurred, but I know it doesn't happen anywhere else in the game. The things I wish this game had was the features that Persona 3: FES brought to the table (The Answer) and the fusion spells that Persona 3 on PS2 had (Ex: if you have Alp and Narcissus, together they can preform a Healing spell).

In a brief, one sentence summary of this review, all I have to say is this: If you have the time, money and PSP (or PS Vita) buy this game today! You will not regret it if you love JRPGs and Atlus' SMT series.

I had never even heard of the Shin Megami Tensei series until a friend leant me the ps2 FES version of this game. Then another friend bought me this as a Christmas present this year bc I wouldn't shut up about it ;p It's a little slow at the beginning, but it really picks up pace. This is honestly one of the best story-lines i have expierenced in a game. You really get attached to the characters. Another thing I love is the soundtrack! It really suits the game. Graphics are good, the only thing missing is the anime cut-scenes. There are a few "inuendos" so I don't recommend this for younger gamers seeing as how it is rated "M". But all in all this is a GREAT game, definately worth the time and money :]

This game is amazing, not all role playing games are everyones type. but in my opinion this is a good game for 95% of rpg's, it has everything a person is looking for in one. I've betten it about 3 or 4 times, im still playing it because of the story and just because i like it. i still cry at certain parts </3, the first time through i suggest easy or medium, then medium, then hard! gets funner the higher level you are and higher difficulty the enmies are!! definitly dont want to miss it!

A good story, lots of things to progress through -- talents, Persona levels, a huge dungeon, social links that actually matter to the game rather than being a useless tacked-on "we have it too!" feature -- and a high level of crafting make this one of the best RPGs I've ever played.

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers

This is the very first persona game that I have played in my life. The reason I bought it is because of all the wonder things people had to say about it and becasue It was a top buy on the PSN store. I must say that I am overy impressed by persona 3. The game is just crazy addicting because it offers a variety of things to do to keep the pace racing throught the game. The battles are fun when controlling the charecters and their persona. The abilllity to "fuse" your persona is just plain awsome and keeps me wandering the halls of Tartarus to collect the many persona's. Besides battles you can obtain the right to create ultra persona's by leveling up your charecters bonds with his/her friends in the game. It offers a challenge because to even become aquaintences with these individuals you must be good at certain things like intelligence, sports, popularity ext. When your charecter is in school I found myself paying attention to what the teachers were saying because you are quized. If you get the question right then your acedemics are increased. Its really a rewarding experience. The graphics were good, but i wish there were more full motion cut scences rather then facial expression changes. I loved how everything was voice acted though. And the voice acting was superb! Its a phenominal game that I love and hope to see more of in the near future!
