Basically what I've been working on for the last hour or so.
Persona 4 Endurance Run Blu Ray Collection
Whats better then experiencing a game first hand? Watching someone else! I never really understood the Endurance Run.
" @quezen: Both. I mean, think of how much publicity it got for Persona 4. The game dominated the site for the better half of a year. How could Atlus not like that? "I both Persona 4 because of it.
And Yes, I had the japanese version of Persona 2 imported (has hints on teen prostitution and hitler in it!!!) and finished it...so I kind of had an idea of what Persona was to begin with.
" I'm still waiting for the best of the endurance video compilation. Perhaps something to be included on the special features. "
Not created by the Giant Bomb guys themselves, but great anyways.

Even though Atlus USA clearly liked it (having links to the Endurance Run in their official emails and stuff), I don't think they would be behind something like this. They would be directly making money off of their product and there are so many legal problems that it would be nearly impossible." Atlus has already said that they like the Endurance Run. They could probably make out a deal to make a Blu-Ray collection. "
Good point. Considering Persona 4 is in 480i/p you should be able to easily fit them all on 1 disc." That's awesome, but it begs the question of how many episodes you could fit on a Blu-ray. "
" @EvilTwin said:but who has 100 hours free time?" That's awesome, but it begs the question of how many episodes you could fit on a Blu-ray. "Good point. Considering Persona 4 is in 480i/p you should be able to easily fit them all on 1 disc "
I mean 100 hours= 1 % of a year, 2010 has so many games anyway... rather play game then watch someone does it for 1% of a year.

If nothing else it looks good for them. It'd also make me feel less of a nerd for buying it (not that that would stop me anyway.)

This could also be a viable solution, but there would have to be a big partnership with Atlus because I doubt Giant Bomb has the money for all the shipments and the production of the blu-rays."

A business suit might think differently, but I think if anything the Endurance Run helped sales. As someone who typically doesn't play JRPGs, I wouldn't even know the name "Persona" if not for Giant Bomb. If they thought it might somehow hurt sales though, I could still see it happening a few years down the road where the game is just being bought used anyway.
Oddly enough, I'm more curious about the pricing and menu setup. They could do a lot of cool things like putting two or three memorable quotes in the episode descriptions (from Jeff/Vinny or the game itself) to make the episodes more distinguishable.
