Well JESUS, she died instantly. Probably got mudo'ed.
Well, it wasn't foggy the day they go into the tv for the first time, so it was foggy that morning. Basically, it's the one scenario that never happens in game: Person gets thrown in after a few days of rain, and you know it's foggy tomorrow, so get your ass in gear NOW. When we found out about a new character for Golden, I had hoped it was going to be a scenario like this, with your party freaking the hell out.
She ran into the Reaper.
I didn't think it was that bad since I
used her for the Conceited Maya fight
It's why I still have never beaten the Answer. I kind of just stopped at that point and youtubed the rest. I couldn't get past the second of the three fights.
Had one of every element, personas were rocking and was in a great shape, all ready to conquer the challenge, and then they cut off a leg at the starting gate.

I'm diggin P1's story, I can see a fair few ideas used in the other games. Maybe I'll give Fire Emblem a break and get Innocent Sin since I'm still in Persona craze mode.
I thought it was called Persona 3.

A lot of P3's females' necks were really disproportionate. It's especially noticeable on Fuuka, Yukari in her choker and the above Aigis outfit though.
Yeah, she normally has a bow or tie around her neck. Labrys has a long one too.
The ingame portraits exaggerate it for some reason Yukari's isn't nearly as long in Soejima's original drawing, for example.
Would totally watch it!

Hey Junpei doesn't escape it either, man.
I figure the long necks were a design decision because they work better in their normal outfits. Of course that means when their necks are exposed they look bizarre as hell.
Damn you.... Damn you.

Hm, I guess the high collar on his regular outfit hides his meganeck pretty well. Strange that I never noticed that.
Yeah I really like Aigis's artwork in P4A. There's an insane amount of detail in it. The promotional art of her in the classroom is really great too.
Nope.avi

Not denying he's got better or anything but I think I'd put it down more to stylistic choice. I mean this and this are concept art for Persona 3, no? P4 and Arena use bolder colours and have more detail (the hair for example). Though it does seem in the more recent art Aigis has rounder eyes, fuller lips and a more defined nose. I don't have the pics to compare Mitsuru and Akihiko so I'll have to have a look.
Gosh yes, I adore that one.
Wait, what? That wasn't Soejima? What about the one where she's fighting against Yu?
WELL WHY NOT?
Magazine leaks came early this week.
Anything interesting?
And Famitsu leaks early and the big 3 manga all come out a day ahead of schedule. Weird. Wonder what happened.
That Assassin's Creed IV manga news is pretty funny.
Other than that, not really. Suda51 is doing some other minor creative collaboration and FFX HD has artwork to go with that new audio drama at the end. I caught the threads as they popped up last night. Couldn't sleep 'cause of the GiantBomb stuff.
Nope! The sketch is from 2007 and the digital painting is from 2010. Neither is concept work. The Aigis sketch is from a promotional phone card and the Aigis painting is from Soejima Artworks.
The only illustrations Soejima did for Arena were Yu vs Aigis, Yu on the art book cover, Yu and Izanagi for the arcade cover, Yu vs Labrys for the retail cover and Elizabeth vs Teddie for the preorder poster.Sogabe did four illustrations: Fuuka, Aigis, Labrys and Yu.
Well, shit.
Also, I guess someone translated the Creator's diaries they did for P3P. I've only ever read them through Google Translate, so it's pretty nice to read a version that's actually legible. Some cool stuff in there too, like FeMC originally looking a like a female version of the male protagonist.

Well dang, I did not know that. There I was thinking they just threw concept/promo art into those books. Is this the same Sogabe who did the P3/4 manga?
I'm glad they didn't do this.

It's wierd that Soejima doesn't do all of the "official" game art; ya think it's to keep any changes over the years on point thru all media with all artists involved?

Alright, I fused a better persona for me. Can I fuse them for my team somehow? (P4 Golden)
No, your team is only ever locked to one Persona each. It can evolve later(reward for getting a link to rank 10), but it keeps the same moveset, and weaknesses for the most part. It's why the MC's persona upkeep is very important.
No. They always stay with the same persona.

Probably the best early persona, no excuse to not buy it at this point. I can never see playing Persona 1 ever again, but definitely can with this one.
Already bought it for PSP.
When it came out.
I wish they could have just ported EP PSP to PSN...
ah well.

I'm surprised they're doing one. Must mean AC4 is the start of a whole new story.

Yep, same Sogabe.
The art books are all concept, illustrations and promo art, with the exception of Arena. Soejima also draws a new cover image for each one.
He does the large majority. They've only gotten other artists to do preorder poster illustrations. I kind of feel like they must be slowing down production of P5 when they keep throwing him and Meguro on side projects. One of the most recent Soejima illustrations that I know of was for a jigsaw puzzle, which seems like a hilarious waste of time (Though I'm sure it will be repurposed onto other things).
I do like Sogabe's style. He really nailed the characters in the later chapters of the P3 and P4 manga adaptations. His early facial designs were kinda wonky but he got past that. Very noticeable improvement if you look at the covers for Volume 1 through Volume 6.
Also, I really love this particular cover.
