Sweet; another Persona game. And on the PS2!
I'm a big fan of the Shin Megami Tensei games and their spinoffs. They're consistently innovative and interesting, which is a great thing in a stagnant genre packed with game series where the gameplay hasn't changed since the SNES days. As good as Persona 3 was, I'm expecting big things from this game.
I do wish they'd bring back whichever character designer worked on the Nocturne, Digital Devil Saga, and Maken X games, though. I love his/her art style, while this one looks a bit too much "generic anime" for my tastes.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
