I don't see how or why Atlus would go through the trouble of essentially making an entirely new game just to fuck with the fanbase like that, when the closest they've ever come to that was some serious script alteration (which had little to no plot relevance anyway).

    If an EP release does occur, the rule thus far with these remakes was to simply retranslate from scratch. Unless someone is particularly fond of certain....unique localizations it'll probably come through properly.



    Wasn't it normally referred to as a talking rock since it was no longer plot relevant by that point? It's not like the characters would really remember the reference beyond "hey, it's a talking rock!" anyway.



    I think you mean all 3 games.
    Lets all remember they kept the best part of the first persona in.

    Can I buy this for no reason at all?

    No, I must resist.

    But... it's a razor sharp sword. Japanese and fancy too.

    Do I have $20000 to waste on something I'll get bored of in about 27 minutes?

    Maybe... but it will come back to haunt me.

    Actually, I'm kind of short on cash. BAWBAWBAW

    But even if I did, I wouldn't do it.

    The best part of Persona PSP is that they kept the Child Abuse theme the same, even with a different name.

    Article 17 Paragraph 4 of the HO:

After said post is completed, then you can communicate with posts ONLY AFTER said post. Even if directly communicated to you in an earlier page, you can't respond. The timeframe of 'returning' to the HO is 1 hour, 17 minutes, 6 seconds. Every refresh of the HO page will reset that timer, and if before said cutoff, the rule is null."

    So he's good.

    Shut up. My parents are okay with buying from online stores like Gamestop, Amazon, etc. etc. As long as I pay with my own money.
    They just don't like the direct trade with someone.

    I go to my last post and check for responses 1 page from said post, that's my limit for back reading.

    It bothers me how much thought you put into that.

    Is SMT really mainstream now? What type fan-base does an 90+ hour turn based RPG have?
    Your arguments for keeping the original ENG trans are sound. One more thing, I had no clue EP had a sequel coming!

    Also about the "in your face homosexuality," Who might we be talking about? If you mean the guy who wears make-up in the band, I thought he was just too cool for his generation.
    Maybe im just blunt though.
    Where the fuck have I been?

    You know, your very right about that. If in fact EP is the sequels, which I keep forgetting it is. , then it not be relevant at that point.
    Its been too long since I last played either of them, so I have fallen from the loop.

    Canucks are up 3-1 in the series. If they win tonight, they advance to the Stanley Cup Finals against either Boston or Tampa, depending on who wins their series.
