QUE MIERDA ES ESTO?

Lo que siempre has querido en tu vida, mi chavo. :D

[Alligatorjandro]

I hope they announce a release date for Golden.

[michaelius]

The original Disgaea had dual audio. I think it's a disc space issue more than anything, and presumably a fighter won't take up the whole disc, so I wouldn't discount the idea outright.

X360 with it's storage space issues and policy to never allow more content for other versions might make it hard.

Arc fighters on 360 typically have dual audio. The only exception I can think of is Battle Fantasia.

[Kincaido]

Good news. Guess I won't import it like I planned. Thought it would come out monthes later like Arcana Heart.

[awilliams213]

Atlus USA once again comes through. THANK YOU

[Ultimadrago]

Rollin' with Chie, like a boss

God Hand peeps into apple sauce

...but I'm not a rapper.

[LiquidMetal14]

I don't like the name as much and the cover could use some work but I'm happy it's coming. Now get on announcing P4 The Golden for a US release so I can pre-order, ATLUS!

That's what's up

[Mr. Fix]

Will get!

*looks at own avatar* ALL MY MONEY!

Brilliant. Also a fan of the one with Chie and them ladies in the car.

That is (fairly obviously, I thought) not the final cover.

[Gravijah]

heh, whatever. naoto is the best.

[jbug617]

I'm buying the 360 version, just waiting for the Amazon pre-order.

[TheMan]

Lo que siempre has querido en tu vida, mi chavo. :D

no way vato, i wanted a goddamn RPG, not a fighting game

a fighting game...blech

[shidoshi]

Charlie. Goddamn. Tunoku.

I'm a fan of Giant Bomb, but OH MY GOD do I hate this name and how much play it sometimes get. Ugh.

[FateBreaker]

Same here.

[LegatoB]

That is (fairly obviously, I thought) not the final cover.

Too bad you guys aren't actually calling it The Midnight Arena like the rumors said. Would've been a nice callback.

[ultron87]

The story blurb on that poster sounds different than what I remember from the original set up.

A new TV Show, a fighting tournament, is said to pull its stars in against their wills, forcing them to face off in battles with deadly stakes.

I thought this was a Teddie run happy fun time!

[Azure Phoenix]

Hurrah! The Arena sub-title seems kinda lazy but a console exclusive story mode is awesome news. Still keeping my fingers crossed for a P4A arcade stick though, no way I'm going to play it with my Tekken 6 wireless one.

[exmachina64]

Okay, what's going on with pre-ordering? Amazon doesn't have it yet and Gamestop gives me this: http://www.gamestop.com/xbox-360/gam...-4-arena/99282.

[Incendiary]

I may get this day one, depending on my monetary situation. Otherwise I'll pick it up later on sale. Definitely interested, though. Always love more Persona regardless of format.

[Jeo]

Amazon.ca and VGP have it for August 7, when's the Japanese console release?

Edit: "summer 2012", no point in importing then

[Brashnir]

Can Chie Galactic Punt opponents?

If so, Day One.

[Hot Coldman]

I'm a fan of Giant Bomb, but OH MY GOD do I hate this name and how much play it sometimes get. Ugh.

It's a wonderful name! YO CHARLIE, HIT THAT BIG ASS SHADOW

It's better than Yuu and Seta anyway. Sure, it's not exactly Japanese but whatever

[Solune]

Why would they? The Persona games only have English audio, so people are familiar with those actors here.

Though this makes sense, if they want to cater to the fighting game base, which is the main userbase aside from Persona fans in this case, they would be wise to include it. Though it's not a dealbreaker I suppose, when you're paying for a full retail release, there are some things one would expect.

[Hcoregamer00]

Yes, Yukiko will be my main.

I feel it in my bones :)

[LiquidMetal14]

That is (fairly obviously, I thought) not the final cover.

I looked and I didn't zone in on anything but the main art before scrolling to read remarks. Thanks for replying though Nich.

[THE NO LIFE KING]

My sentiments, exactly.

[xxczx]

I'm not really into these types of fighting games, I can never get the hang of them.

inb4 7 month wait for Europe.

[Azure Phoenix]

Yes, Yukiko will be my main. I feel it in my bones :)

High five.

[Hcoregamer00]

High five.

Yes, a fellow person with excellent taste.

*Bro Fist*

[Banana Kid]

Repost! If Atlus of America have any sense of awesome in their veins, they'll go with Charlie. Charlie. Goddamn. Tunoku.

Fuck. Yes.

[RyougaSaotome]

Not the biggest fan of the name they went with. I would have preferred something like Persona 4: The Midnight Arena.

Still, good news for folks out west and even here in J-land. If this is coming to consoles in the Summer, that's a confirmation that we'll be getting it around the same time/a little earlier.

[chickdigger802]

Is this game out in arcades? What's the general consensus from competitive scene?

[Kagari]

$60 seems a bit steep. I'll probably wait for the $30 or $20 price point.

[P90]

Pre-ordered

[SDBurton]

Oh hell yes! Without a doubt Mitsuru will be my main.

[NinajHeartless]

OH MAH GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWD

SOMEBODY HOLD ME

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING

SO MUCH HYYYYYYYYYYYYYPE!!!!

[Secret_Riddle]

Great news, but it does make me worry that Persona 4: The Golden might not hit hit the west. Isn't it scheduled to come out relatively soon in Japan? Whereas Midnight Arena is still a while off.

As much as I love Persona, and I believe 3 and 4 to be among my favourite games ever, I've never actually owned 4, and I've only really experienced it at my girlfriends place in bits and pieces. That game will sell a Vita for me..so here's hoping.

[Paznos]

$60 seems a bit steep. I'll probably wait for the $30 or $20 price point.

This is probably what I'll do too considering I'm not a huge fighting game player.

[Busaiku]

So the only console exclusives are online and story?
So then 10 characters?

[shtkn]

there have been rumors of more hidden chars, but no concrete info

[RedBoot]

A US release of Golden would take some time to localize, maybe around 5-6 months if the original P4 and P3P are any indication. A fighting game, on the other hand, could come out almost simultaneously with the Japanese release. We'll probably see P4G in late 2012 over here.

[Jenga]

if there's anything i dislike about atlus, it's the american dubs

even if i don't understand what anyone is saying in the japanese audio i can still tell they're usually much better actors

[Dragonzord]

That just seems like a silly thing to say.

Doubt Atlus will print that many copies. Even if it is Persona related

I honestly thought Digital Devil Saga and Persona 4 were handled extremely well. Persona 3? Not so much, Persona 4 had decent voice acting work but Persona blew it away with it's quality. I don't think there was a single character's voice that I didn't like in P4, not even Yosuke.

I'm a sucker for Yuri Lowenthal :U

Honestly I kinda just turned off the volume anytime anyone but Heat or the "I don't comprehend" dude said anything. Seriously everyone else annoyed me.

["God's Beard!"]

[vall03]

Ive been under the assumption this is a PSN/XBLA title, awesome that this is retail. Will definitely get the game since its Persona even though I suck at fighting games.
