Totally redrawn show.
It should be a totally redone show. It would be HILARIOUS if it was just the old anime with Marie added in sometimes though.

Ok guys, bad news.
At least one person so far can't compete in the King's Games B League on the 14th, so I'm going to try and figure out another time to run it.
Sorry guys

LMAO, now I actually want to see the latter happen.
Just to be sure: do you mean a fight pad or a fight stick? I don't have any experience with the former, but if you're talking about a fight stick, personally, I couldn't imagine going back to a controller for FG's. I find that a fight stick makes anything where you need to reliably hit the corner much easier, like instant airdashes and tiger knee motions. I also love how since I main Yukiko and sub SLab, I never have to change controls to use them on a fight stick, since Yukiko has combos that have you hold A and B, and SLab needs to be able to hold D to have Asterius block. On a pad, I would have to map those buttons to L1 and/or R1 to make it work, but on a fight stick one button config works for every character.
That's not to say you need a fight stick to do well though, since there's top players who play on a pad. Wolfkrone actually had a nasty pad C. Viper in SFIV, who is an extremely technical character who I believe is also pretty reliant on TK's (though Wolfkrone did finally switch to a stick
).BTW, are you on a better connection over the summer? I wouldn't mind playing you in P4A again if you're ever up for it.

He did for a bit. He's back to playing pad though.

P4GA looks so much better visually than the original.
How many episodes is P4GA compared to the original P4A, anyway? I guess they don't want to draw it out too long, but my main issue with P4A is how.. overly abridged it felt.

What like 20 theaters across the country? The closest one to you being 300 miles away?

I like how optimistic you are towards P5 at E3 but not about this

Oh you will cry
Shit I was holding back tears like there was no tomorrow man ;-;
And also I have to ask this question: Is the movie leaning to a pairing at all, or is it just Makoto acting like an actual human?
No extreme paring towards anyone, but
the scenes where Makoto interacts with Yukari and Aigis are still in, and the film starts out with THAT scene on the Love Hotel boss fight. So yea....
Runtime was around 1h30-1h40. Nothing really got cut besides SLinks
(but there were in as a few cameos, and they also find out about Shinjis cooking)
So yeah, five movies relating directly to the seasons + The Answer seems to be what they're doing. Cool.
"Wintering the Storm"... or something.
"Wintering the Storm"... or something.
I like that title. I wonder what's the fourth movie title will be like.
You're so lucky. I can't wait for the second movie to be subbed.
P3 spoiler
The movie ending with Shinji's death is going to make me cry ;_;

I'm actually surprised that they are animating The answer too.
The feels that the ending of #4 and #5 will give me are gonna be insane LMFAO.
Kinda slow to the news but are you guys saying that the P3 movies are no longer confirmed to be just a trilogy?
Also, I'm really kind of surprised and excited to hear that P4Dance is going to make an appearance at E3. I thought Atlus was only going to show Ultimax and maybe a bit of PersonaQ. I'm going to go and eat some crow now.
So...early 2015ish for P4D I'm guessing?

For US? My guess would be mid-late Q1 2015 and we probably won't see P5 in the US until late summer at the absolute earliest.
A few months after P5 is what I'm guessing, and yup seems like there will be at least 4 movies, or 5 if they include the Answer as well.
I'm not sure they were ever confirmed to be a certain number of movies, we all just guessed I thought.
But yeah, way too many events left in the story to really make a 3rd movie conclude the Journey and not be incredibly rushed.
Or probably "Dead Winter Days" since the first movie is called "Spring of Birth."

Decided to work on Maken Shao some last night, got up to Amsterdam.
Very experimental stuff for Meguro, but sometimes it gets a DDS vibe.
Vienna
Istanbul
One track I heard had a Svadhisthana vibe to it, but heck if I can remember it.
Also, boy is the PS2 version ugly. Doubt I'll go back to it. Doesn't even play as well as the DC version. Funny how it even has Messian/Gaian drama.

If P5 is released in November/December 2014 in Japan, that would be an 8-9 month delay between release dates. Kinda weird when none of their recent games have had delays that long and Atlus USA stated they were focusing on releasing the games as closely to the Japanese release dates as possible, no?
Oh yeah, from birth to death. I like that.
The only thing I really worry about is something Nich I think pointed out earlier, in that there's multiple companies making multiple persona games, but they're still all filtering through one company, Atlus USA.
I'd hope that there's such a concept of priorities and P5 has a mighty high one, but who realistically knows? Not knowing absolutely anything about P5's structure certainly doesn't help matters.

So movie 2 ends with
huh. I guess one per season is actually feasible, especially given the naming conventions we have so far with a season in the title. I can't wait to actually get to see this one!
Did someone say Fightpad? This is my main area lol.
Basically a fightpad has the button layout of a fightstick in the form of a controller. If you ever played a game on the Sega Saturn you probably have a solid idea what a fightpad looks like already, since they're extremely similar. Like a fightstick you have 8 buttons, just that two of them are located on the shoulders rather than on the front. Dpad is the main input method, but most fightpads have a switch on them to choose if you're controlling Left Stick/Dpad/Right Stick, just like a fightstick.
Saturn controller
If you really want one, Madcatz and Hori are your best bets. Avoid PDP brand, I have little positive to say about those lol. Importing a PS2 Saturn Pad and getting a reliable PS2/USB converter works too, though is much more expensive. Those PS2 Saturn pads are in high demand for good reason though, things seem to be excellent controllers.
Of course like Hao Chi said, you can do perfectly fine on a normal controller. Top players in several games go with the standard remote. Heck, TWILT over here does Dante combos on dualshock in Marvel 3 (that shit isn't easy lol). It's really all a matter of what you feel more comfortable with. Depending on the game I use fightpad or Dualshock, but I'm trying to ease into making my Fightpad my go-to for all of my fighting games, just simply to have a proper standard.
Shinjiro's death

Sure, but that doesn't really tell us much. I'm sure Atlus USA is familiar with working on multiple projects simultaneously, and this time the main focus might just be the Persona games. Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and Persona Q are going to be releasing close to each other, so I wouldn't be surprised if the same happened with P4D and P5.

Yeah i can agree with that.
Yukari/aigis in the 5th film which i think covers The answer? yeah i'm looking forward to the catfight and physco Yukari
I'm looking forward to the fade out at the end of the last P3 movie after the credits, where the camera then pans down to a grown up Mitsuru and Aigis saying stuff, and then everything cuts to black, teasing the P4A anime.

MC's pads are garbage. I have a Saturn-style USB controller, and it is divine.
I doubt it. I'm sure Atlus knows they need to get P5 here as early as possible. I'm calling March.
Shoryuken didn't do it, so here's someone's summary of the new P4AU character general gameplay details:
Nothing other than the second movie
ending at Shinji's death
The movies are all named after seasons and there are 4 seasons, so people are speculating that the last movie will be the Answer.
HEAT RISER, EVIL SMILE / GHASTLY WAIL COMBO LET'S GO
Some PQ tracks:
FOE Battle
Title theme
Wonderland, first floor
Wonderland, second floor
Sounds completely brilliant. Love the title theme.
Pretty interesting that you're so down on it. I was really impressed with how well it had aged.

Since they've updated the P4GA site to be a little more complete, I thought I'd whip up some Twitter avatars for the currently announced characters. There's four different variants, so even though only six characters have been revealed, there's a bit more variety!
Examples:
I'll add more as new characters are unveiled on the P4GA site-- enjoy!

I'm still getting solid work out of my MC pad, then again it's the newer SFxT model. Some of my friends have the original SFIV ones, both in 360 and PS3 versions and they're still running strong too. Honestly if you keep your controllers in good shape I'd still recommend the MC ones, especially the SFxT version.

I'm more thinking of how long localization could take and how big the game is in regards to text and voice acting. Sure, I don't know a ton about how long that stuff takes, but I can't imagine it's a trivial process either. Of course, with Persona Q being near done (if I remember what CJ said correctly) then there's a highly likely chance I'm off.
March would be great to see, but the pessimist in me can't see it. Either way, I'll probably pre-order whatever special edition they release for Persona 5 (if they release one) and whichever for the English release as well.

Anime movies that actually come to theaters are always to far away for me to go to. My heart has been broken to many times.
I had half an essay written up, but I forgot to actually post my reply, and it's not needed anymore.
Whether or not buying a stick makes sense for you personally depends on your current level of comfort with stick and your long-term goals in the genre. Playing on stick is going to make more things easier than they would be on pad than the opposite (especially if you don't use a claw grip), but if you don't intend to make a serious commitment towards fighting games, you don't want an expensive piece of equipment taking up space in the house. Alternatively, if execution on your current pad is already not an obstacle, stick with what you know - learning stick back up to that level is going to take a lot of time away from working on other stuff.
