I have both and Persona 4 is by far better than VC. Better story, characters and gameplay. Valkyria Chronicles' story kinda bores me a bit. I still haven't finished it; stopped playing around 30 hours but the gameplay is pretty awesome. I'm already 50+ hours in Persona 4 and haven't gotten bored.

Both!!! Damned bro this is the hardest question ever. I probably rent money or work a day so I can buy them both.

I will most likely be picking up the both of them, but one of the biggest things with me is how long will each of these be available? I still see plenty of P3 when I go into a gaming store, but Valkyria Chronicles is already getting scarce. I expect P4 will stick around a while too just like P3 but some people here say it may end up rare as well.

With both I mean get them both at the same time ^^'.

Well I also just got The Last Remnant. The SaGa team are in fact the greatest in the world and makes the greatest games ever, so I should be occupied for a while, so 1 game is enough, although I could actually pick up both if I wanted to seeing as how P4 is only $39.99.

 Well, the first time around for Valkyria Chronicles, it took me around 32 hours, because I am not a person into RPGs, but if you are really smart at strategy, it should take around 7 hours to complete. Thats how long it took me to beat it and get straight A's across the board the second time around

I would most likely take 30+ because I am not the greatest when it comes to SRPGs but I enjoy playing them. If I can speed run through it the next time though in under 10 hours that is good too.

I think I may end up getting Valkyria Chronicles this weekend and P4 sometime in January unless I see it vanishing rather quickly and i'll snap one up before they are gone.

P4 just came out and keep in mind retailers are going to have that for a while with VC now only selling like 77k In NA i think you should play it safe and get VC before SEGA announces they stopped making copies you might get lucky and find deals on Boxing day

Valkyria Chronicles because I don't have a PS2 anymore and my PS3 can't play PS2 games.

^ Well, my PS3 is a 60Giger so I can play both.
