Not really. What's weird is that P4 is my favorite game of all time, yet I don't even own a copy. I own, P2, P3:FES, and P3P, but not P4. I rented the PS2 version, my first Persona title, loved it and went from there. Never got around to buying it. Glad to finally have a copy to put on my shelf.

It's on Hulu, isn't it?
Just look it up on YouTube. With the 1000's of playthroughs uploaded you should find every way to get all trophies
Not sure if there's trophies for the extra content but for all the main story stuff.. Making the World Persona will probably be a bit difficult first playthrough not sure
Dub episodes are on the anime network's website, but only for premiums after the first episode. They may have a free trial that you could use and you could marathon it all, or you could subscribe just for a month or something. Other than that, BD/DVD is the only legal alternative.
Don't think there's one yet, but there will be. Most of the stuff should be doable on one playthrough, but one specific boss fight does not happen until the end of your second. It's impossible to platinum this on one go.
I didn't, but someone did and I thank them, whomever they may be.

I couldn't fathom using YouTube for that... hopefully there's a FAQ that tells me who to woo on what days.

Considering people made them for P3, FES, P3P and P4, it's inevitable that one will pop up for P4G.
For the s-link stuff, someone always eventually does a calendar you can easily use to plan your days. Problem is, P4G adds 2 new S-Links and like an extra month of stuff, so you'll have to wait for a new one.

Same boat as me buddy. I saw "extremely limited" and "Atlus" and it's as if my trackpad was clicking itself!
I guess I was hoping one already existed from the Japanese version, because I really, really don't want to wait a second to start this up.
Cool, maybe they'll be done by the time the game's out here, or their head start will let me play as it finishes up.

When I pick up my normal edition from Gamestop I'm going to ask if anyone cancelled theirs.

I'd pretty much pay anything for a physical rerelease of this on PS3. PLEASE TAKE MY MONEYS ATLUS.
I bought a launch Vita mainly for this and gravity rush (as well as a place to put all my psx and psp RPGs..)
Day fucking 1.
Only got upto kanjis dungeon in my ps2 run, so most of this will be fresh.
Also fuck you atlus for that PAL release date, thankfully unlike Arena I can import this.

Wat? No. Vita all the way - can't stand playing RPGs on consoles anymore.
If anything, hope that Atlus will sell a digital copy of the PS2 game through PSN.
You can play and update it just fine, but you'll be locked out of any potential DLC.

speaking of which, how is performance vs ps2 version? Any side by side?
I don't remember ps2 one having super long loading... but I assume it's better here no?

So jealous of anyone who is getting this.The soonest I'd be able to get this and a vita is January, so I'm going to have to get by on people's posts.

Ugh. Chie's VA is the same chick who voiced Quark in Virtue's Last Reward... so whenever she speaks all I can imagine is Quark
fuck.
now I feel conflicted about life.

I played it in English first, then Japanese.

I've had the reverse problem with a lot of P4's VAs, haha. Many of them are everywhere. Yosuke's voice, Yuri Lowenthal, is a problem for me in particular. He really doesn't given a lot of variance in his performances and whenever I hear him not as Yosuke, it really takes me out of it.
Ah, sounds good to me. I alternated voices with each of the routes. Definitely enjoyed Aksys-chosen Eng. dub cast.
I'll probably flip them on and off with P4G, here and there.

Lowenthal, O'Brien, Bosch, Baker and Bailey sound fucking identical in absolutely everything they do and it's been a problem for me for a while. Blum has got a lot of range, but everybody makes him and North do the same voices all the time. Jenn Hales always recognizable but she's so great that it's not quite as bad. It's a problem in the whole industry, japanese included, there's maybe 100 total voice actors and only about 20 of them get regular work.
I feel like Baker at least has a few voices he can do and just generally enjoy O'Brien's stuff. Bailey at least has 2-3 different voices she does, so that helps. Lowenthal is the one who's the freaking exact same thing every time. It works for Yosuke, but it's really difficult outside of that.
I think you hit the nail on the head with the Blum/North comment. I think a lot of these actors are like that. They have a much greater range than they're allowed to demonstrate. Baker's character in the show Darker than Black was near unrecognizable. He pulled off a believable British accent. It was as surprising as finding out North did Penguin in Arkham City. These people can do more, but the VO directors just want the stuff they're known for.
You only watch anime, huh?

I only watch about 5-6 shows total, and only one of them is anime. Why?

Okay, so... I haven't played P4 since I was reviewing the NA version before it hit, and I've played countless games since then. When MC dies in battle, you're dropped back to whenever your last save was—wasn't that the way P4 originally worked? Or am I totally forgetting how to play Persona?

Those actors do get chances to use their range, but almost never in anime. Hale, Blum, etc all make the bulk of their money doing American kids shows on Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, etc. And they get a lot of chances, too because they work constantly. Voice acting pays poorly, but anime pays terribly and the production process is awful and tiring. No clue what games pay. Also: commercials.

Well, the only other thing I've heard Blum in aside from games is the new Avatar, and surprise surprise, Amon sounds exactly like Steve Blum.
Because one thing you said is absolutely true: a lot of these actors have a particular voice that's just popular. That Steve sounds like that in Avatar is course on purpose, no one will convince me they weren't (at least a little bit) thinking of Renegade FemShep when they cast J. Hale in Halo 4, etc etc.
But you can find things where Steve sounds different. Only anime example I've got is Digimon.

It's a crying shame all around. Lowenthal speaks three languages fluently, and yet I heard him speaking english 99% of the time in Metro 2033.
Yes I'm pretty sure that's how the game handles continues since at least P3. Maybe they changed it for P4G though.
