    Does spending time do anything useful after hitting max S.link?

    Here's what I'm wondering: Is it possible to max out all S links in one play-through?

    I believe it's possible. I haven't done it though.

    You could still do it once if you feel like it. 
     
    I didn't regret wasting time with Chie once to see that little extra scene, just sayin'.

    I'm pretty sure you can also do it the first time you go through the game.

    Nah, only Persona 3 needs a guide, in P4 the margin of error is, like, a month and a half. EIther way...

    If this is your first time through the game, you'll probably won't be able to max  'em in one play-through. And using a guide just sucks all the fun out of playing these games(specifically).
     
    Just hang out with the S-links you like best.

    So you're saying that I should jump on that game for that scene? Are we talking about... naked stuff?

    Yes. On your first playthrough, you have an error margin of a month or so. With New Game+ where you have all your stats maxed out, it's even easier.

    Um.....no. I think my plan to try to not imply something like that was a miserable, miserable failure.
     
    It's just that after you've maxed out a "girlfriend" you can still hang out with them and it's just a little more hanging out. Doesn't do anything useful and is technically a waste of time, but I enjoyed the few extra lines of dialogue that I got out of it. 
     
    As for sex, it is very vaguely implied at if you spend time with a "girlfriend" on christmas eve. Youtube it.

    When a highschooler lies to her mother that she's spending the night at a friends house as a cover for spending the night at her boyfriends house.... you'd damn right expect Charlie got what's his.

    As far as the console version goes I have no clue... i maxed out Yukari one day before the end of the game, so I didn't get a chance to see what was 'going on' Who else do you get extra time with?

    @mutha3:  The Christmas scenes weren't.  However, aside from Yumi's "Highschool kids doing that?  What..wipe that smirk off your face!", the other Max S.Links aren't as obvious as Chihiro's "I don't want to be alone tonight!" or Elizabeth's "Even I know what it means for a girl to ask a boy to his room."

    You can chose to spend Christmas eve with one of the romantic S-link option or your bros. Implied sexy-times occur in the former:P
     
    Just be sure to finish the game before Dec 22. And I thought you already played/watched P4? I remember you talking about the ending.

    Only Yukiko does that, and its still pretty obvious what is being insinuated. Naoto, Rise and Chie are even more blatant.

    @mutha3:  What?  I just said that the Christmas scenes weren't vague, and as those clips show, they weren't.  Christmas Event =/= Max S.Link Event.
     
    And I'm paraphrasing here.  They pretty much are all asking "can I spend the night here" and being pretty obvious with their intentions.  I think you're just seriously misunderstanding what I said.
