I have new found respect for Heat's opinions.

That boxart is just terrible.

SNES: Shin Megami Tensei II and Final Fantasy VI.
GEN: Shadowrun.
PSX: Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, Legend of Mana, Chrono Cross, Xenogears, Vagrant Story, Tactics Ogre and Valkyrie Profile.
PS2: Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne and Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter.
PC: Fallout 2, Planescape: Torment, Wizardry 8, Vampire: Bloodlines, Knights of the old Republic 2 and Neverwinter Nights 2.

If you ever interview Atlus USA, ask them why they hired such a mediocre "graphics" designer.

How come your the first person who has brought this up? I think a lot of people appreciate how use the original box art for the most part instead of butchering with the inclusion of CG models and such (see Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter, Valkyrie Profile 2).

The current Persona 3 box art logo just SUCKS though. I better be just a placeholder.

EDIT: On second thought, I do remember the Devil Summoner logo really sucking. They changed it up on the final box art though I believe.

Atlus USA hasn't officially said anything about FES being released in NA, but it should be blatantly obvious at this point that we are not getting it packaged with P3.

Yes, officially it's still undecided, but if anyone around here reads NeoGAF there is an Atlus employee who has given a lot of insight into the problem with localizing FES. He hasn't blatantly said it, but it doesn't sound like they have done anything with FES so it won't be in the initial release that's for sure.

[seriously]

"All out on the P3 goodies"? Compared to all the extra/special crap Japan got for its release, we got boned. Hard.

And you were seriously expecting stuff from the Konami special edition?'

Music CD, Art book? That's damn good for an NA release.

Atlus USA has not had one official statement on FES, that's all I need to know.
It's sucks, but based on the impressions I've read FES is not really substantial piece of the Persona 3 experience.

I'm glad Atlus is going all out on the P3 goodies, I'm a bit fan of the tunes.
