Finally. I have the second game but haven't touched it yet since I haven't played this.

I'll probably buy this.
Bought the second game (with the plushie) but never had a chance to get the first game without having to pay ridiculous money for it. I hoped Atlus would just reprint it like they did for Nocturn & DDS but they never did.

I'm guessing Nocturne is an impossibility because of Dante and the licensing issues he presents. :\
They did reprint it recently.
That's why we need raidou version on the vita, 3ds, or ps3. SMT 1 2 3 collection with Nocturne Maniax Chronicle Edition. :O

Be warned, the fist one is pretty bad. If this one is coming out, the second one should too.
Yeah, I would love for this to happen, especially on the Vita. But I strongly doubt it ever will.

Lol, I just checked Amazon and what do you know, I did buy the reprint. Last year no less.
Well, I guess I might just buy the digital version instead of breaking out my actual PS2 disc.

M-maybe they still have the rights to use Dante...just like Capcom used the Kaneko devil triggers in Marvel VS Capcom 3!?!?! Wasn't there a Nocturne reprint sort of in recent times?

I think the bigger concern is emulation than licensing.
And yeah, the OST is unbelievable.

Meguro was on fire.
Absolutely. It runs like crap on the PS3's PS2 emulator. Either they're working on it, or it's an impossible task.

Really? Devil Survivor has one of the best scenarios in the series imho.
I'll probably grab this, though I have a backlog of PS2 megaten spinoffs to get through.

Longest title ever.

Seems like they reprinted Digital Devil Saga, Raidou, and Nocturne, since they all showed up brand new for good prices on Amazon.
I would rather get Nocturne or the DDS games, but I will throw money down on this game just to show my support.
Even still, I am holding out hope for that rumored PS4 backwards compatibility.

Well, no one played it, I know that much. There was little to no hype for it when it came out, which is sad. It price dropped like a rock, then became rare when 2 was announced.

Yes.
thanks. Hopefully it'll find its way soon.

Great move, but I do believe I own it. Either way, people should really hop on and try this!

Hmm! I've never played this! Does this hold up to the old SMT maxim of, "the longer the title, the harder the game"?
Set in the 1920s has me hyped, though real-time combat deflates that back down to neutral. Everyone seems to have a different opinion of this game, so I'll just get it and make my own.

The difficulty is average.
It has the hardest hard mode ever made.
Well, excluding Witcher 2's perma death one. Enemy damage is doubled, Raidou's is halved, costs are through the roof.

So dang excited.

agreed. replayed both over the last couple years, & enjoyed them just about equally (& actually preferred the 1st game's story to the second)...
&, tho i still own both, i'll be buying this in the hopes for more. the ps2 smts need to be kept available. they're excellent...

Rasputin is also a noteworthy reason to buy the game.

What is this SMT like? I have only played Nocturne and 4. Is this a good game?

Random battles move to an arena, and you move around in real time to dodge and counter. There's no negotiation, you hit weaknesses and capture demons. There is definitely fusion.
Raidou 2 brings back negotiation.
The selling point is the story, most consider 1's story stronger than 2's.
Sold.
oh ya, those compendium prices. My god.

Oh shit hype!
Though will it come to the JPSN also? D:::::

I wish I could play PS2 games on my Vita.
I'd finish those up. The first devil summoner is short. Just looked at my save. 28:57:44 was how long it took to beat for me.
Oh ya, this game runs at 60 fps most of the time. I'm not used to that smoothness.

absolutely. it's a rare setting with good characters on top.
Just take it with you.

Great, now put up the second game. (And gives us a third one.)
One of the best tracks in the game(s).

DDS was supposed to be on the EU PSN and it never happened, so that's the speculation. Maybe something to do with the cel-shaded engine they and Nocturne run on.

Wasn't that back waaaaay in 2012, though? Granted, Xseed just mentioned that Wild Arms 4 & 5 wouldn't be on PSN for a similar reason ("something with the coding thats preventing it from being compatible with PS3′s via the necessary emulation that other PS2 titles on PSN use") so I guess they probably didn't find a solution for DDS.
