Wha? This seems shocking coming from you Erik. As Bone says, fix now. ;)

They're quite different from 3 and 4, yes. Covered in Hardcore Gaming 101's Megami Tensei article.

Unfortunately, as you can see there, there are actually two games released for Persona 2. The PSP one is the only release outside of Japan for Innocent Sin. Meanwhile, the second game, Eternal Punishment, got an NA PS1 release years ago, but no PSP version outside of Japan yet (and not on PSOne Classics either).

If we are going to derail the thread anyway, I will suggest Legend of Dragoon. It pushes 40 hours, but its one of the best RPGs I have ever played.

That's a shame, because about 4 more arrows would have done it :lol:

Don't underestimate the value of taking things slow and giving yourself every little advantage in Dark Souls. Also, don't be afraid to be "cheap" with things like arrows.

Honestly, it seems as though arrows are a must have. I just found a place in Sen's fortress where I almost have to kill the Serpent Caster, or else I'm SOL.

I do wish the game was a bit more brightly colored at times.

I just started Knights In The Nightmare and I think I'm in love. This game is so pretty. It requires laser focus and twitch reflexes but you also have to really think about how you're building your army and don't miss any key items.

I'm playing on PSP, it's also on DS and I think Vita. You may want to add this to your list, it's insane.

You should play that Breath of Fire III you have, and then get to IV (or so I'm told, since I've yet to get to IV).

Working on it. But it can't be immediately. Got to finish Persona 4 Golden and Final Fantasy XIII-2 first.

Interesting. I imagine if EP isn't out here yet it is probably never coming. I will certainly play Innocent Sin. Sounds pretty good. If I like it I will just have to buy the PSOne version of EP. The original Persona sounds the least appealing, but I might as well try it eventually.

I'm about 30 hours into Persona 4 and I love it. I wonder how far I have to go? Seems like I still have a ways.

If it's like Persona 3 it'll be 80-100+ hours. Way too long.. But at the same time it is so well done. Definitely liking P4G more than P3 FES so far. Even if just a little more.
