Nevermind me. It wasn't a shot at you or anything. I was just supremely disappointed in DS KR.

I haven't played the game all that much, save for a few minutes of the Japanese version, but I liked what I played of the battle system. The game, at least, seemed a lot more appealing than Digital Devil Saga. I've yet to actually play any of the North American version [of Kuzunoha Raidou], though, despite buying it and the damn guide.

[BEST!!!!!]

Come on, you have to be kiding me, Persona 3 is one of the best games I ever saw, and I dont think other titles such as Lucifer's Call or Avatar Tuner, to be as bad as you say, because if you say that, that means you dont like this kind of games at all. In my opinion Persona 3 has a different look from other games, and what about MIP, you say its ugly because you only see or play (I dont know) the US version, and completely forgot about the real version of the game, of course I'm talking about the japanese version. And if the graphics were not of your like, there are plenty of reasons for that, and one of the best I can find, was that, they dont use all the resources of the playstation to its max.

You can see other games, that do not have good cualitu graphics, but the are the best for many aspects, like the music, story, controllers, fun factors and many others things.

What I want to say is, you dont need to judge a game by its graphics, they are well known for they're story or good gameplay. And one last thing, Persona 3 is not an bad game, come on, is one of the BEST!!!!! and of course other Shin Megami Tensei games, are also good cuality games.

You totally missed the point.

Remaking wouldn't necessarily be the best course of action for those of us who prefer the older style SMT titles. None of the SMT titles after Nocturne have been that amazing (I haven't played P3 yet, but I don't care for what I have read). I don't have faith in Atlus in its current state for a competent remake.

But, if they were to remake it, I would imagine all they would really do is upgrade the graphics. I don't see them screwing around with the story or battle mechanics too much. I don't see why they would, anyways. I don't necessarily have a problem with the "older style" Shin Megami Tensei games -- in fact, I prefer them, and would greatly like to see them make another SMT game in the same vein as 1, 2, and if....

And, I agree. Megami Tensei games haven't been all that good lately [I didn't like Nocturne, and despite my username, I thought Digital Devil Saga was terrible], and Persona 3 seems like it's going to be terrible, and the most cliché-ridden of the lot.

edit: Looking at screen shots of Persona, I guess it isn't nearly as ugly as I remembered it to be.

I still enjoy the battle system, and I have spoken with quite a few others that enjoy the more deliberate strategic elements to the battle system versus EP/IS system, but the labyrinths do need some work.  I still think the sprites look decent. As for getting lost, I really don't think the world map is that difficult.

The game is ugly. That's all that really needs to be said. A straight port would be pointless -- why even bother if no effort is going to be put into it? The game has been re-released for the PlayStation numerous times -- porting it to the PSP with no actual changes or additions would be ridiculous, and probably wouldn't sell well, either. Remaking it would be the best course of action, especially since a lot of people didn't get into the series [in the U.S.] until after the release of Eternal Punishment, and even in 2000, the game felt extremely dated.

Though, it doesn't matter what console they remake it for, if they did remake it, the chances of it getting localized would be slim to none. SCEA, apparently, has a "no ports" stance, and since Persona is not, and never has been, a very popular series, an exception probably wouldn't be made.

I don't know if I would want it/them on PS3 at this point, and I am not so hot on what changes they would bring about in a remake. I would rather have straight ports on the PSP or DS if possible. I would love to see a relocalized version of MIP in North America.

Straight ports? Are you kidding me? The game play in Revelations: Persona is, to say the least, terrible. It hasn't aged well at all -- especially when it comes to graphics. I still get lost on the world map, because of how poorly laid out it is. I wouldn't mind an actual remake for the PSP, though, and a decent localization.

I guess I should re-introduce myself. I was fairly active here when the forum just began. That's pretty much it.

But now that I think about it, DDS 2 had 2 pop songs either.

And only Alive was any good. I thought Time Capsule was complete garbage -- not as much as "Danger", but close enough.

Nuh uh.  
Yuna was a pop star.  Pop stars rock.
Not to mention Yuna dressed like a moogle.  You can't beat that.

Sorry, no. Everything and anything about or related to Final FantasY X and Final Fantasy X-2 sucks. FFX is like that "New Coke" that wound up tasting like shit despite the fact that it was Coke.

edit: My analogies suck almost as much as FFX.

I generally dislike "perfect sweet girl" type of main girl charas.  This includes Rinoa, Yuna, Sera (I'm sorry!), Collette... the list goes on.

Rinoa has the best outfit out of all of them, though.

1UP has posted a small entry regarding Monster Kingdom, if anyone is interested in learning a bit more about the game.

[Game(s):]

Game(s): Shadow of the Colossus, Final Fantasy IV
I've only defeated the first 2 colossi in Shadow of the Colossus -- I seem to have a hard time actually finding the damn things, though -- apparently, a big beam of goddamn light shooting out of a sword isn't enough to help my horrible sense of direction. The game has awesome character designs -- the Protagonist, the Girl, and even the Colossi are all awesome looking. On to Final Fantasy IV -- how the hell can Cecil be only 5'8" and 128lbs, yet still be able to walk around in that that heavy looking armor? That's about my Weight and Height, and I doubt I could even actually stand with that armor on. Crazy Japanese.

Music: Gearly Gear Isuka OST, Dark Cloud OST

I hope no one thought that when I put "FFVIII: Rinoa..." meant a lack of Rinoa. I HATED Rinoa in FFVIII. D: If they killed her off, maybe I'd find the story more interesting.

What exactly is it about her you dislike so much?

Haha, if I wanted to be scary I would have put this then. ;) -> 二形 Pulled a Jenna Angel on you all!

David likes Futanari.

FFVIII is just an excuse to make a cliché "romantic story". That´s why I consider it worse than FFVII.


Aerith wasn´t all that...
My brother still feels sad when he hears her "death music" though.:blah:

Aerith was one of the few decent characters in the game. At least, one of the few characters with any real meaning -- and a somewhat decent design.

FFVII was just an excuse to make a Star Wars-esque Rebel Story.



Argilla: Sorry if I was being a jerk to you in the thread. Apologies.
