Hopefully they give Atlus' large titles more of a push. I think that with enough marketing and distribution help they can really sell this series abroad.
Also Jack Frost in Sega All Stars Racing 3 plz. He can ride the Ho-mobile.

he should be riding mara's chariot
It didn't help much when the story just... stops. You don't learn anything about Kat at all. I hope the sequel at least expands around who she is/was, how she got her powers, etc.
I enjoyed the game, but it was disappointing for sure.
Get a PS+ subscription so you'll get that, Uncharted and WipeOut.
The game is pretty good, it just has a few quirky things that bring it down.
I don't think those games are still available on PS+, are they?
No, the people who've played it generally like it quite a bit on a surface level. It's a game with a cool gimmick and a great presentation/personality, but the actual game design is half-hog.
It's absolutely worth trying and it's free on PS+!
Oh, neat. I guess those games aren't the standard ones that get cycled out regularly.
They probably will at some point, they phased out the first three PS3 games that were available when they started the instant game collection.
It's not a bad game by any means. Just flawed. Which makes it a good choice for a sequel.

I was browsing through the Daily Deviations on DA, (often one of the few things to actually browse on that site...) and I found this little gem! It made me smile, so I thought that I should share it with you all.
Absolutely.

She's one of my favorite characters, but I can't deny than that comment made me laugh.
Oh. It seems that tomorrow I'm getting the PS3 back. Bad news, though. It's only a permament solution, since the PS3 was already "fixed" with a heat gun, and it messed up the motherboard. Looks like I'm gonna have to sell it to someone else or risk losing even more money that I have thrown away already. Gah, I don't know what to do. It's
That, or I can try to pawn it or sell it to Game Rush (there's no Gamestop here, folks) for pennies.
Either way, I'm getting rid of it, and I'm trying to buy something else. Play-Asia has an offer for the PS Vita. $189 dollars, shipping included. Not bad at all. Might grab that one whenever I sell the PS3. Either that or I can hold on to see if I can get a decent deal on another PS3
That's great.

That would be a lot better if the voices weren't being overpowered by the melody.
I finally started a Persona gamne P3:FES and it's been a great rise so far. Just defeated enperor and empress and I'm a big fan now.
Two things though: You can't save anywhere so when I died I had to go through 20 minutes of cutscenes. Also you cant skip cutscenes. The hell?

You can hold triangle to fast forward through dialogue. Outright skipping cutscenes is difficult because of the fact that you, the player, have to select dialogue.
Expanding Atlus as a brand is exactly what I fear.
I like my games quirky and weird, thank you very much.
Expanding the company doesn't necessarily mean doing less of that.
It might indicate something like, I dunno, standard releases in Europe, though. Just thinking out loud!

Possibly, but I am skeptical. Dead Space was a great game until they attempted to expand the audience.
Scrafty and PK do.
I figured you were referring to something like that, but they haven't said anything like that. Expanding the Atlus brand doesn't mean diluting the life out of it so the games can go mainstream. That would contradict everything else in the statement.
Naoto Hiraoka's meaning of "expanding the brand" is more Atlus takes advantage of what Sega has to offer, and Sega takes advantage of what Atlus has to offer. Remember, he points out that both companies compliment each other in this regard.
This should hopefully translate to things such as Sega being the European publisher of Atlus games, expanded advertising for Atlus games, drama CDs and other spinoff titles getting actual English releases, and possibly even Atlus assisting in the marketing of Sega's more niche titles.

I'll believe it when I see it.
Also, no chance the Drama CDs will get released over here. No market for them.

I agree with this, I take it more as expanding the brand [Atlus itself, so more teams, offices etc] rather than expanding their franchises [widening audiences to games]
I also agree with this, Drama CDs will never come out here. There just isn't a big enough audience that would merit the release of them
Not true at all, actually. Code Geass had nearly all of its drama CDs translated and dubbed. They were included as a bonus item in collector's editions.
Also remember that "Atlus" itself has long since been a brand name, not so much the name of the corporation. You may not believe it, but there is little reason to assume Hiraoka is doing the usual PR spin.

I'm not quite sure how that shows there is a market for them? Specially if they were pre-bundled in collectors editions.
There's a market for them as collectors items and pre-order bonus items. The later of which... y'know, has kinda been a regular deal for Atlus games since Persona 3?
Or at least Atlus games in the US, at any rate... ;p
I'm willing to bet you that we don't see the Drama CDs at all, and definitely not as pre order bonuses.
Way too pricey.
Most likely. That's at least another hour of the voice actor's time.

Yep, If they were going to do it. They would have to sell the copies and not bundle them in with something.
Seriously. It's one of my favourite Meguro tracks.
The lyrics are downright depressing when translated.
But Atlus have generally run these sort of things relative to demand. They have brought things out to low numbers, because no matter the niche, they understood that audience clamours for a product. Not that I would expect that to ever happen, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Man, griding for the Reaper in P4G is the woooooooooooorst...
I've been counting each chest I open and even when I open the 21st and hear the chains rattling, there's no gurantee that the next chest will contain him, even if it's the last one on the floor...
