Igor's been pretty much a straight up ally in every game. >.<;

Yeah, but he seems pretty sinister the first time you play Persona. Like, I just got into a town full of coffins, and now a boy in an old timey jail costume is making me sign a contract, and here's this dude with a nose telling me about contracts.

The word contract just immediately makes the brain jump to demonic contracts, especially since you have this ghoulish dude named IGOR right here.

Two new Persona Q trailers:

P3 Version

P4 Version

Oh right... Friday. At least these aren't simple character trailers.

There's been a steady flow of Persona news lately. Kinda nice, even if it's nothing too crazy.

Edit: Ha, I haven't even finished the P4 side's trailer yet, but I like all of the little interactions. Theo making his sis go berserk's great.

What is that? Something like the Famitsu vote?

It's great. I remember when Final Fantasy was like this. News was plentiful. When Square started to favor silence the fan site community really felt it.

It's pretty incredible. Five years ago it would've been considered impossible.

That is the Famitsu vote.

Isn't the one you posted quite old? I got mine from the Media Create Sales thread of this week, which unless fake, should be more accurate.

Yeah, the one I posted is old. So the one you posted is a more recent one from Famitsu? Heh, nice to see P5 take the top spot, then.

BTW, I'm pretty sure someone from Atlus saw your posts and wanted to screw with the order as a joke. :D

Haha, can you imagine that their initial plan was to go with a set order but they just went "screw it" when they thought people were predicting it too much?

I think one important factor that make P5 able to defeat FF XV in the poll is that P5 already have release time estimate. But this definitely shows that Persona is a stronger series than ever considering that Persona ! also managed to get into top ten. Amazing I say, I hope Atlus really deliver with P5.

Heh, glad they've been compiled together. Neat reference.

It's great. I remember when Final Fantasy was like this. News was plentiful. When Square started to favor silence the fan site community really felt it.

Just this week:

1. Sega to Divide Index Corp. Into: Atlus and Index in April
2. Amanda Winn-Lee Teases Persona Voice Work
3. P4U2 Mook to be Released on March 14
4. New Persona Q Gameplay Details via Famitsu
5. Persona Stalker Club Variety Show to air on February 28
6. Two New Persona Q Trailers Revealed

Again, nothing too big but, yeah, it's great to have a steady flow of information to go on. There were some dark times in the past before the Persona event where nothing was going on, and that sucked.
 
I hope Persona 5's mascot doesn't stick out like a sore thumb as much. P1 and 2 don't have mascots...well you could consider Maki the P1 mascot and Maya the P2 mascot, but they aren't really mascot. I hope Atlus is savvy enough to actually have some sort of chair as the P5 mascot lol.

I thought Teddie did a nice job of being a mascot character while also being a good character on his own. Is Koro P3's mascot? If anything I'd say Aigis has kind of become the mascot of P3.

Hype rank accepted. I feel like I need to know more about P4D before I totally place it in my hype rank, but this is more or less me.
I can understand that. Just the concept is enough to make me crazy hyped for it. The music in Persona is so good.

P4A2 is only on the list because Yukari and Junpei are being added :lol. Without their stories that game is nooooothing to me.

I though this was P2's mascot

Still love how they referenced other ATLUS game they localized.

What if they ruin them? :O
Wouldn't be surprised but that's a risk I'll gladly take for more Yuka-tan and Da Man.

PQ has me excited for similar reasons and there's no doubt in my mind the characterizations in there will be a billion times better than anything in Arena.

I like that PQ seems to be going for a fairly lighthearted tone so far. It seems like it really embraces that it's a big mashup fanservice game.

I rather like Arena, I think some people are too hard on it, but I feel the same overdoing the characters thing has been happening SINCE right after P4, this includes P4G, P4A, and P4 The Animation.
