Good stuff in that post, but this has to be my favorite:
Hahaha, why the hell does Ui have Gatling arms?!
It's gotta be this one for me, mainly because it's so out of character.
If anyone would be doing the punching, surely it would be Jun.

I'd post the guy's full gallery, but it's full of not work safe drawings.
Damn right. Amazing games. If you have a Vita, you should definitely give Persona 4 Golden a try. It's genuinely my most eagerly awaited game of the year. We could play it together!
Quiet down.

How about Persona 4 Arena? I'm not too into into fighting games (or rather, I'm really bad at them) but it's pretty good even for the presentation and the story.
But having not played Persona 3 & 4, I assume that a lot of the characterization wouldn't translate quite as well (not to mention that the story mode is essentially a visual novel) for a newcomer.
Like how awesome Yosuke is.

They need to stop milking 4 and go on to 5 already.
I can't wait for 5, but the cast of 4 were so strong that I haven't minded these little spin-offs.
Especially as Arena indicates that the crossover could potentially be a more permanent thing.
I would love to have that cast return and mature.

It's a franchise (and SMT in general) that has a ridiculous amount of goodwill with me.
My problem with it is that it has the turn-based combat which I have never liked in any game. The idea of playing it alongside someone is appealing, though. Does it require a lot of grinding to get anywhere? I despise grinding.
I have played that, but I didn't touch the story mode. I didn't like it much as a fighter and thought the only reason it was so popular is because it has persona characters. It had some damn good ideas, though.
Not at all, it's a fairly easy game. The systems may appear deceptively complicated at first glance (like the calendar dictating when certain events happen), but it's only as in depth as you'd like it to be.
The characterization is what puts it a cut above though, you will have favorites, and you will care what happens to them. Apart from maybe MGS, I struggle to think of another series of games that I have that sort of connection with.
People will argue the case for P3, but I think that P4 is undoubtedly the superior game. And they have style (both in terms of sound and art design) for days!

No one in their right mind should be buying a Vita right now.

What is this, the gaming side?

....I don't trust you, yet. And how can I talk K-on with you if I don't know anything besides some character names. Have you not seen Chet trying to make me watch it?
I knew you were a good person.
Exactly, at this point, just wait for the price drop next year. Reminds me that i haven't played mine in a while.
Maybe, maybe not.
It's also the time for me to sleep. Work lately is making me feel very tired....
My problem wasn't with whether or not the combat is complicated, it's that I've never found any turn-based combat fun. The way you describe the game makes it sound like something similar to phoenix wright.
I was never in my right mind.
I already own one.
My bad. I could start the adventures of ero-chet featuring Mio.
You're right not to trust me. There's an easy fix to not knowing more than the character names. Now you have two people trying to get you to watch it.
Constructive conversation! In gaming side!
We now take you back to your regularly scheduled K-ON!
It's almost downloaded!

That was more directed at Unknown Soldier...
Watch K-ON!

But the night is still young!
If I don't force myself to go to bed at night, I'd probably never sleep.

I shall give it a try when I can. If there's not a demo, then I'll have to rent it.
The joke went over my head then.
Also, this.

Bwahahaha. I'd be more afraid and inclined to watch it if this whole thread turned on me. Well.....maybe
I won't turn on you, I'll make you into a friend. I will then convince you to watch it through friendly banter and a thorough explanation of why it's an enjoyable show.

Isn't the fact that we're all posting here mean that we would want you to watch it?

Only you an Uraizen are. Everyone else seems to accept my fate.
Though those gifs......No must resist
Sleep is for the weak
and tired.
I'd also like to throw in a recommendation for Kokoro Connect.
Please don't kill me, Chet.
Don't resist, give in, the first season is short anyway.
Ah, right, forgot to mention, all my gaming info is in my profile for those who want to add me.

Even if they don't say it, I'm sure deep down they'd love it if you would watch it.

I second this! I really enjoyed what I saw of the series, enough to consider buying the novels. But I can't read japanese yet :'(

This this this! I also wish to know this before I buy Part 2 of the 2nd season. There's also the movie to consider, I have no idea where to place that, and heck we don't even know if Sentai Filmworks will pick it up for the U.S. market.

Hmmm...I might just get it then myself...

Arrrgh....my two weaknesses D:
Well, I'm no expert, but I watched them in chronological order and it didn't affect my experience. The movie kinda covers up until episode 24, but you should probably watch it after you've finished both seasons.
I might be biased because I watched them in broadcast order, but I'd watch them in broadcast order because the TV episodes reach a nice conclusion on their own and the BD-only episodes provide a nice transition into the movie. I feel like the movie was made to be watched by people who have already watched the TV series.
Yeah, there's a few things you miss in the movie like
azusa's entire reaction to the song that was made for her.
I just bought my second Vita last night.
It was white okay, don't judge me
Persona 4 is my favorite game ever.
I too, love sleep, mostly because my job requires me to be up at 4am most days. It's a lot of the reason I like the lighter slice of life animu because I can watch it while I'm half asleep and not worry about some crazy plot. Just absorb the moe.
I'm waiting until I can get a fancy colour from Japan. That orange one you always see in trade show pictures is amazing.

Broadcast order is probably the best, as the last episode has its own nice ending for the whole thing.
and episode 24 is emotionally brutal. It's nicer to end on a happier note.

Every episode of Chuuni is cute. I need to watch the latest one soon, right now I got a bunch of kids ringing my doorbell and I've been giving them candy instead of watching anime.

Oh right, it's Halloween. I didn't end up doing much really, save for carve a pumpkin.
