Should I play Persona 2: IS on PSX or PSP?
Yeah, so I really wanted to play this game but I can't decide if I should just burn the game and play it on my modded PS2, or if I should just go ahead and buy it for my PSP. What I'm worried about for the PSP version is stuff being censored. But I do like the box and stuff. What do you guys think I should do? Which version is better?
Ya'll are stupid
Lolcensorship. The only real censorship is shades hitler which makes him more badass. And I'm pretty sure you cant play burned psx games on the PS2 which extensive modding (FMCB or Swap Magic)Originally Posted by Underrated
PSP version, you won't regret it!

Actually I have a PS2 Slim that is unmodded that can play burned PSX games. Here's how to do it:
1.Burn your game on a CD-R (I use Memorex) and put in any retail PSX game until the PS1 Logo screen appears.
2.Immediately open the disc cover and remove the retail game and replace it with the burned game.
2a.Make sure to avoid scratching it from the moving disc spinner thing (put in the disc just when it stops you gotta be quick).
If all goes well (it works best with a retail game that is readable aka one that isnt badly scratched) the PS1 logo will disappear as always and baboom your game fires up!

oouch, my ps2 will bleed if I do that ^^
Huh? I have a modded PS2. Matter of fact I just burned the game and it works fine on my PS2. But what I'm wondering is if I should just keep playing this translated version, or if I should just go out and buy it for my PSP. Can't decide.
Persona!
buy it on the psp, support atlus so they dont do a se or namco thing and not release a game here

haha well that's weird. Well if you like supporting people I'd agree on the PSP version since it's already translated and it's portable so why not.

Not being able to play on a ps2 wouldn't be an issues, considering that you can get the psx2psp conversion of the game and play the original ps1 version on your psp. Also Persona 2: Innocent Sin has a sequel called Persona 2: Eternal Punishment(which takes place in an altarnate universe where different events occur and consequently have different outcomes, also you control one of the lead characters, while the protagonist in the original game becomes a supporting character). The reason I told you this is Persona 2: Innocent Sin had a US release, but Eternal Punishment(Batsou was the Japanese name I believe) never reached the shores. A few weeks ago, Eternal Punishment was released in the NA PSN as a PS1 classic. So here are your choices:
Persona 2: Innocent Sin PS2 (Not recommended, since you may be disappointed with the resolution if you use an LCD TV)
Persona 2: Innocent Sin PSX2PSP (Not recommended, since the remake is superior in a few departments, like addition of cool cutscenes)
Persona 2: Innocent Sin PSP (Recommended, because it's superior and you want to get the retail)
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment PS2 (Not recommended, since you may be disappointed with the resolution if you use an LCD TV)
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment PS1 Classic (Recommended, since it is the best version available, but this is a digital purchase, so forget the box)
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment PSP (Not Recommended, since the game doesn't have a fan translation and if you don't know the language it is unplayable)
I hope this helps.
Welcome to Hyrule
Actually it was the other way around. Innocent Sin was never released in english on the psx, but later got a psp port that was. Eternal Punishment was released in the states during the ps1 days. I should know because I have the game. It came as two discs, one with the game, and the other had a couple of special features. One of them was a trailer for a persona anime and the other was an interview with english subtitles. Also I'm not sure about the compatibility, but recently there was a program out to convert psp isos and eboots to pspmini and psp remaster pkg files. Some games had great compatibility while others won't run.

Oh, sorry about that, I probably got carried away with shin megami tensei stuff and mixed those two and you are absolutly right.
By the way, as far as I know currently psp does not have any problem running those games, you can pretty much play anything you want. Most games that had problems with previous CFWs were fixed (For instance Koudelka).
