The game was much more about the alternate history detective story at the core of its plot than it was about the more traditional mythological influences of the series, and although the combat system still focused rather strongly on exploiting elemental weaknesses, the fact that it was action-based rather than turn-based made the game feel quite different from the normal SMT title. Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs King Abbadon brings the Devil Summoner sub-series a bit more into line with the overarching feel of the SMT series, but still retains most of what made the first game interesting. In short, Devil Summoner 2 is a solid improvement on the series."
Netto's Game Room goes through the complete timeline of the Persona series; from Raidou to Persona 5 and beyond.
HD versions of Sega and Atlus' action role-playing games, Devil Summoner 1 and 2, appear to be headed to PC.
Amazing couple of games with that classic Shin Megami Tensei/Persona Art Style. The good Art Style. Heavily underrated and in need of a sequel for sure.
I would love for it to be a mixture of Souls-like mechanics (bonfires, souls left behind when dead, item description, etc.) and Dungeon/world designs, with the Yakuza style of serious main quest and humorous and goofy side quests, all wrapped in Ghostwire: Tokyo style of graphics, presentation, First Person spectacle, and Neon Soaked City.
And speaking of Ghostwire: Tokyo, where's the Maken X sequel at Atlus?
Shit, so many good stuff Atlus and Sega have left go down by the wayside in favor of some really mediocre games and what feels like infinite re-releases and remakes and...
Pity.
The digital PS3 version of Mass Effect Trilogy has dropped to $4.49. Odin Sphere, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha versus King Abaddon, Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga, Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 2 and Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 are also on sale for $4.99 each.
?
These are sales for the digital versions of those games in fact I have a backwards compatible PlayStation 3 and I still opted to purchase the digital version of some of these games simply because they ran faster and the actual PlayStation 2 versions cost a fortune.
Ironically I'm actually currently playing Persona 4 right now on my PlayStation 3
Persona 4 on eBay is only $15... that's not a fortune. Though I did purchase this digitally to save a few $$$.
@Rhyme- thats a good deal for that version. Its normally always $10 on PSN though.....
Mind you, I couldn't find it on Amazon for that price years ago when I was looking for it lol.
I found it on PSN simply by googling and finding out Atlus put a lot of their games on PSN and I ended up getting it on sale for like 5 bucks.
$4.50 for the Mass Effect Trilogy?! I would jump on that if I didn't already have the game. I also own all of these Atlus titles physically, and I think I did get the digital version of Persona 4 just to support the digital release/have it on my PS3, even though I think my PS2 is still the most authentic way to play it. Granted, Golden is the definitive version IMHO with maybe one minor point in favour of the original. Perhaps I should open up a Tracy Rooney vs. Erin Fitzgerald discussion right here for my own amusement, but derailing the Internet can't be that easy, can it?
