Kojima's glasses will be added in Persona 5: Red for PlayStation Vita!
:lol
Right?! I was like... "Atlus? No, they aren't going to show Persona 5 here, at the worst conference in the history of press conference-- OH, SHIT. Persona 5! One of the hardest-hitting Japanese role-playing games in da league!"

For me for soundtracks it goes 4 > 2 IS >3 > 1
3 has a few great tunes but as a whole I don't think it's as good as P4.
P4 has a ton of great songs (especially in Golden) and everything fits so well.
P2 IS has Maya's Theme which might be my favorite in the whole series.
P1 has some good tunes as well (IMO of course), but it really doesn't fit the game.
I'm not far enough into EP to judge yet.

So you can still play your PS3 collection, due to the PS4's lack of BC.

It means I'm very quickly running out excuses to not buy a PS4. Sony wouldn't have asked for a PS4 version (and delay as a result) unless they knew it would sell systems to RPG fans and Japan in particular. Sort of a joke question I know, but still a smart business play.
As someone who occasionally turns into one of those insanely bitchy JRPG "purists" I generally scoff at people who take this lame route but in the past few years my opinions have changed a bit. Some-- Rather, a very few-- games are so good and have so much story to push and so much total content worth enjoying that a run on easy doesn't detract from the experience. Anything in the 25-30+ hour range of actual content is a ton of game for $60 and a not-insignificant time investment for people.
Then there are games that are the opposite; Tales series in particular. Without playing around with the more flashy combat stuff, watching/listening to the cast interact and watching the skits the game would be an absolute bore to just play through for the sake of playing through. It's only really fun if you put all parts together.
Anyway, no reason not to think P5 won't have the degree of story/depth that the others have had. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little nervous though.
Heh. Well, the series sure has come a long way since the original P3 release when more ears went up. Atlus are the master of extending content and milking the shit out of it while somehow not angering fans. They turned 2 games into a decade of content.

Cannot wait to see the game in engine. I remember back in 2008 when I was eagerly looking forward to the sequel to Persona 3, I think the first time I saw anything was like a clip in Japanese on gametrailers, where Chie was yelling at Yosuke in their classroom...I guess it was the whole "trial of the dragon dvd" bit.
I couldn't know at the time how much I would go on to love everything about the game...It's world, music, characters... even the way that blue butterfly savepoint glows against the corner of the classroom has a special place in my heart.

Let's put it this way; the newer Persona games are set in an idealized version of Japanese high school life where students have a huge amount of freedom to pursue various activities on top of saving the world, while their real-life counterparts spend a lot more time studying and/or going to cram school, among other things. If high school life can be stretched to fit the series' mold, then I'm sure the same could be done with university or a workplace setting.
Because none of the other games you mentioned have Persona's style of storytelling and light sim elements.
It's not simultaneously getting released in Japan and the West.

What do you think of this theory?
Sorry if this was already posted.
But that has to be bullshit.
I'd better get a god-damned Lord of the Underworld Vincent bonus boss.
Because I don't have the money to buy a PS4. I'm broke.
BROKE!
it's ok you can still be my Persona 5 buddy with a PS3 <3

Awww yis!!! I missed the news until now. Super excited it's coming to PS4. What if the footage in the teaser (and what I presume to be the opening cutscene of the game) actually ended up being in-game footage lol
I would cry sweet, sweet tears ;~;

I want it for the Vita to play in bed but a PS4 version with Remote Play is close enough
Hope we don't have to wait so long for the synchronization.
Man, what an amazing time that will be!!
I think he's trying to say that P5's MC is Katherine and that guy's son

Idk man. Persona without randomly generated floors would just feel...wrong.

No, I understood. It's just stupid.

1 and 2 weren't randomly generated.
Not that they were any better for it, fuck EP's last dungeon.

Yasogami High was VERY much not idealized. The building was run-down, the faculty a pack of nutcases, the student body somewhat apathetic about studies and prone to gossip.
Hell, I figure Charlie 'n crew spent much of their "not Shadowbustin'" time studying. It just flew by for sheer brevity's sake.
If P5 got Dungeon-Ass Dungeons that had puzzles, damage floors, teleporters, phasing, etc, you'd have people whine. So that's two reasons to want Dungeon-Ass Dungeons for the second time in the franchise's history.

I'd be down for Dungeon-Ass Dungeons. I played Lufia when I was eight and figured out the invisible bridge. You can't scare me.

Ah. I'm an SMT scrub and have only played Persona 3 and 4 so that's where my perceptions have been shaped. I'd miss it but I'm sure they could do cool stuff with none random dungeons.

I'll back you up. Katherine for life!
Yea, it's probably just a coincidence.
Edit: Double Post on Phone. Sorry.
Check out Catherine. Folks are basing P5's visuals to be equivalent or better.
Well you can still get it on PS3 if you want you know.
Ah .. yes, I own that one. I didn't even think of that, it's extremely encouraging.
