Seeing all the expressions complete is giving me inspiration to turn "that" fanfic into a visual novel.

the cannibalism one?

There's another one?

Sprinkle on some voices. Mix it with some animations. Voila.

There's some lag. I'll hopefully have that figured out in a later video if I plan to make more.

oh DUDE, I would LOVE to see a resurgence of animated podcast clips with these new portraits.

Also, I would totally buy the shit out of a Ricky Gervais style cartoon version of the podcast with the graphic stylings of persona. Someone kickstart this.

Yeah, a reprise of Saya no Uta.

All I Love Mondays should be done this way.

Cool stuff. dont stop doin it :)

Possibly the greatest thing I have ever seen! Keep up the great work!

Best wallpaper. Ever.

My mind is at ease now that I see those characters blinking. Forget about a dating sim, make a bombcast sim where your rank depends on competent responses to various video game topics. Good answers will cause damage to reduce remaining air time. Too much dead air will reverse your rank and certain humor will boost the talking strength of the main bomb squad. Cast spells on different electronics like iPads and sound boards to keep them from getting distracted by fact checking and such. Surviving the podcast is the name of the game. Do it quickly and you'll get bonus zenny (I guess). Ranking up will progress the story and give the main character skill points to spend on different "Site Skills" which include stuff like video production, API devolpment, editorial, and screen time.

I just noticed, Persona Dave looks like Ryan Gosling. This is neither positive nor negative, but kind of funny. Now I'm imagining him driving everywhere and brutally murdering fools.

I hope someone makes a game out of this. Don't let me down duders!

I can't give enough love to "Dark Side" Hardcore Dave.

EDIT: It also makes me wonder what the Midnight Channel levels for each of the Bomb Crew would be?

Brad's would have to be the airplane at the end of Modern Warfare.

Jeff's might be a place filled to the brim with skylanders, maybe the walls and floors are made out of skylanders as well.

I so love this, love the style and quality! If I had any spare money I'd commision a pic of myself in this style! Whoa!

Very nice.

Can't remember if I already said this but man, Dave looks suspiciously like Ryan Gosling...only better looking.

Absolutely. And then when it comes time to take the final shot, Dark Side Brad is the hijacker holding the final hostage.

I can see Alex's stage resembling something from the Nicolas Cage classic, "Wicker Man".

Drew's would have to be Dexter themed (which could actually be an awesome stage).

And Vinny's could be just like the creepy baby stage in Catherine.

The baby could be Coolbaby

That could also represent his son and the ordeal that he's dealing with this year.

This may very well be the best thing to happen to Giant Bomb and Persona. AT ONCE!

Damn that's good.

Thank you for restoring my faith in the Internet.

These are awesome! Nice work, dude!

This universe needs some NPCs, maybe some social links. Sports guys Sean Coonce and _____. True Ending boss Dave Lang (level being the Lang Zone). Brad Muir, obviously. Johnny V is a shoe-in. Norman Chan....

All of these things. All of these things need to happen and they need to happen immediately.

Hey girl, I'm looking an engineer well-versed in working with Python. Wanna give it a shot?

Finally came on to see these Persona-Giant Bomb pics everyone has been talking about. Amazing stuff!

Man, these continue to be awesome. I love the Shadow ones. I wouldn't want to mess with Shadow Brad.

I wonder if there was any rationale behind the Arcana choices for the wallpaper or if they were just random /personafanboy

these are FANTASTIC man, I really hope the staff has given you some sort of thanks for your work!

one question; did you use flash or a vector based program or photoshop/pixel based proggy for these?

@Neur

Yeah I came up with the associations while @SupernormalStep followed through with fantastic results. I did have a rationale behind each arcana choice but I'm a little hesitant to surface them here. I would hate to make the bomb squad self conscious or anything but if your curious I'd be happy to oblige. I'm pretty sure I can describe each in a sentence or 2 that can directly relate each to the imagery on their respective cards. I'm sure not everyone would agree with these but I tried not to just compare them to characters from P3 or P4. These may sound pretty cheesy so read at your own risk.

Photoshop.

Extremely impressive.

@Mezmero:

That's not how the Arcana work.

@Mezmero: Video_Game_King is right but I like the more literal approach as well. You did specifically say you went for how they related to the imagery on the card as well. You convinced me, at least. Also, by my casual reckoning, some of them can be shoe-horned into the actual Tarot meanings.

Yea, I only managed to find three that could actually relate back to Tarot symbolism.

pretty sweet! good work

Incredible

So good. I think the GB crew should use these in some way.

Holy cow!

Much love.

I got so excited when I saw that. @SupernormalStep: Good work dude.

Actually, shouldn't it be:

@SupernormalStep: I know you've already received a ton of compliments but please have another one. Those drawings are pure awesomeness.

Atlus USA linked this thread to their FB page. Consider how awesome that is.

I wanted to see the link for myself, but for some reason, you can't view a page on Facebook without having an account there. Damn it.
