Im buying anyway. Persona 3 is what introduced me to the SMT universe. Maybe not the best representative, but thanks to it I've played Nocturne, Raidou 1 and 2, begun DDS 1, Devil Survivor and of course the PS2 Personas and Persona PSP. Now I get my hands on everything related to this series, main or spinoff.
Im still hoping for P2P before I decide to use a ROM though.
The guy from the review seems to dislike the Visual Novel style the game has, which I found funny because many 'fans' at gamefaqs said they disliked the slow travel through the city and the reviewer is against removing it. I personally liked it like it was before, but meh. Im still getting it.
