True, still kind of enjoyed the characters in 1 anyway for some reason. If there was anything that I liked devil survivor 2 over one, it would be the sheer amount of dumb dialog choices the mc got. This guy has some of the dumbest dialog choices I've seen in a game in a long while.
Mhmm, from what I played, the characters were a bit genero-anime stock, but they were well written. The parts I enjoyed the most were when they were just talking at the end of each day. It was neat.

Yea that was one of my favorite parts. I also really loved the atmosphere of just being lowly survivors stuggling to do even that. You don't really get that in Devil Survivor 2 because very early on you already join the group with the biggest chance of survival and yep.

Newegg...really? Still in packaging. I may just have to cancel this, but my concerm is going to be where can I get it then. BB wouldn't even let me preorder it.
Guess it's too late to cancel, and it looks like BB does have it. Any chance I can pick it up from BB then return my Newegg copy to BB when I get it? Is that wrong?

Posting this half-asleep but:
WHY AMAZON WHY?! You're delaying my Solid Gold edition until December 19th?! WHY WHY WHY?!
...now that I got that off my chest, I'm gonna try to snag a copy at GS during my lunch break.

I've been waiting for this and Jet Set Radio. I just have a thing for delayed releases.

That's...really lame. Hope you are able to pick a copy up today.
Thanks. I'm just gonna get a regular copy to hold me over until it arrives... I knew something was up when there was no email but man... This sucks. I need something to play during Thanksgiving while waiting.
You may want to reconsider this. The story gets pretty interesting when it reaches the end days and people start to break down and panic.

Still not as dark and opressive as P3, but oh well.
I bought the game, finally bought the console \o/

I got this same e-mail about it being delayed until Dec 19th and just checked here to see if I was the only one. Did anyone who ordered the Solid Gold edition get it shipped yet? Are they all delayed?
I ordered my copy from amazon about an hour after the pre-orders went up.
Mine shipped yesterday and will arrive today.

I am off of work this week, and I am going to play Persona 3 Portable while I wait for the store to update today.
Let's pray that GCT arrives early tonight.
This will be my first time playing Persona 4, even though I listen to the soundtrack usually a few times a week. Hearing those tracks in the game should be amazing.

My Solid Gold has already shipped from Amazon and should be on my doorstep when I return home from my in-laws tonight. HYPED!
Pick it up at lunch, prop it up somewhere you can see it while you work, see how long you can last until "boss, I'm not feeling too well"

Actually, depending on the afternoon traffic, it's probably best to pick this up during or a bit before your lunch (assuming noon) to save time. My secretary does this a lot so I'm in the know.

My boss is on vacation this week, so it would just be me and Persona 4 staring lovingly at one another for three+ hours.
Probably would be true if I hadn't preordered it at the GameStop across town from where I work (i.e., the one down the street from where I live)

Yeah I got the email too...FML.
Wonder what the reason is, well other than the obvious.

A little headsup for my fellow European gamers. Play-Asia is out of stock on the US one, but they do have the Asian version with English screentext in stock, and it's even cheaper.

I was worried about my order since I didnt get a shipment notification. Amazon emailed me at 2:43am to tell me it shipped. Estimated delivery is still today! Phew!
Id call them and see if they let you cancel. If they dont, buy it elsewhere and then return neweggs copy to newegg once you get it.

That's why I'm waiting until after work
. No choice but to stick around here until then, save for a Dr.'s appointment.Same. Damn you Purolator! Better not wait until the end of the day to deliver like yesterday. I have to go out in a couple of hours for half an hour or so. With my luck, that is when the delivery will come.
mine hasn't shipped either! i'm getting really annoyed with amazon.ca. i still haven't even received paper mario 3ds and i preordered it...

I'm eating toast and watching 30 Days of Night.
I should be eating toast, watching 30 Days of Night, and playing Persona 4.
And it's all your fault!
=(
I also have a bit of a sore throat, and I'm going to blame that on you, too. If only for the convenience of having all my ire directed in one place.

It's the only Persona I've finished (though I've played a lot of 3). Certainly one of my favorite games of all time. You're in for a treat!
