    Persona

    Franchise »

    Depicting occult practices, fey heroes, and demons crawling out of the woodwork, Persona is Atlus' largest, most successful, and most acclaimed franchise. Beginning as a spinoff of the Shin Megami Tensei franchise, the series developed a sizable following in the West after Persona 3, and expanded into non-JRPG genres after Persona 4.

    Persona 2 PSP announced, bitches!

    Its Innnocent sin too! Finally! No more shitty Persona 3 remakes. All they need to do is fix P2's horrendously broken gameplay, and this will be the best thing ever.

    I think your vision is still 20/20 and I think P3P was a great Idea to experiment with separate paths and try new things before PS5

    They didn't try any new things, though.
     
    Unless  you consider lifting Persona 4's gameplay and throwing it in P3(thus making it wildly unbalanced and easy) and throwing in something as obvious as a female protagonist "new things".

    Ya big waste of time... tons of people who never bought Persona 3 on PS2 got to buy it on PSP, like me. The nerve of Atlus trying to make some money off an amazing port of an amazing game.

    Pretty much.
     
    I'm just glad they aren't wasting money, resources and time on a P4 remake(I hope it stays that way).

    Except, it wasn't unnecessary. It was an excellent remake, they made it work well on PSP, and it introduced some people to P3 for the first time. 
     
    Shitty remakes are shitty when they don't work with the system, if they're a bad port, or if absolutely nobody wants them. It's amazing you can throw a jab out like that right after you get what you want.

    Agreed, because a persona 4 psp port would be stupid as fuck.

    Unless your Atlus, the only reason you'd care about any of that was if you never played Persona 3.
     
    If you have played P3, which the majority of the modern day Persona fans did, it was a waste of their time and resources. P2 on the other hand, is not only incredibly clunky by post-2000 standards....
     
    The first part was also never released in the US.

    Not sure how releasing a great product is considered wasting time and resources, but if you say so.

    If the product was already released twice before, and its preventing you from releasing more and better products, its sure is.

    All this reminds me is that Atlus has still avoided announcing a US release date for Catherine, and no info on P5. 
     
    Never played P2, but I don't have a PSP, so I probably never will.

    I bought a Japanese copy of Innocent Sin but was too scared/too broke to mess with modding my PS2 to make it work. And I have a PSP. So this is awesome news.

    Peter Bartholow reviewed Persona 2: Innocent Sin, back in the old days when GameSpot actually reviewed imports. Jeff reviewed Persona and Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, but don't count on him remembering either game. On an episode of On the Spot where Persona 3 was being shown, Jeff actually thought that the evokers were included in the previous games.

    well i'm excited. Also I don't think P3P was a bad idea for ATLUS to do, it got people into persona 3 and made it portable, i thought it was great, and I have P3 and FES.

    I'm still hoping that they put Persona 4 on PSP, because despite spending 100+ hours watching Vinny and Jeff play it, I want to play it, but don't really want to get a PS2 copy. But judging by other people's comments here, I seem to be in the minority.
