If you guys want an independent confirmation from Derek Stephen Prince about that VA credit on his homepage, he's attending a convention in Houston this weekend. I can make sure he gets asked about it.

So how does the FES thing work? Is it the original game + new content, or new content that you have to load up a save from the regular game up?

Don't get me wrong, I think it would be terrible for us to get FES only as a PSP release. If P3 were ported to the PSP - and I have this bizarre feeling that it might - I just wouldn't be surprised to see that be the method to get us Americans FES.
(Really, though, I'd love to see P3 on the PSP, for some odd reason.)
yeah. it's like this:Red Scarlet said:
Episode Yourself (original game) has added content and new systems like weapon fusing a la Devil Summoner, a brand new Arcana with new Personas, more commus, hard mode added and some other stuff
Episode Aegis is an epilogue of sorts, which is like 30 hours long (this is new stuff, that wasnt in the original release).

I'm not sure how the remake itself stacks up to the original, but I can say the soundtrack was a big disappointment. Masharu Iwata did a subperb job on the original. For the remake, they got Shigeki Hayashi. Now, I expected he'd do a good job, because I absolutely loved the work he did for Sting on Riviera and Yggdra Union... but it was not to be.

Stupidity? Christ, it's not like any gamer with the slightest shred of self-respect doesn't already have a PS2. Just let Atlus release it on the platform it's already on.

SF4's unconfirmed development team and format.
SoA2 rumors.
Fes for NA rumors.
Man; a lot of tugging at my heart-strings this week in gaming. I'm almost scared to ask what's next.

So Baroque's coming over, eh? It doesn't look nearly as interesting for its time as the original, but I'm still curious.

Mwahaha, this is delightful. Come on FES!
I hope the VA didn't get in any serious trouble though.

Why the hell do these retards keep coming into threads of PS2 games to ask for ports? If you want a game, you buy the fucking system it's on. If you don't want to buy the fucking system, you shut the fuck up about it. Jesus, this is worse than the MGS4 on the X360 posts.
PS: You're awesome, Atlus.

do people not realize the purpose of portable games anymore?
I mean, do people think the PSP was created just to have games that will later be ported to the Wii? no, it was made to play video games anywhere.
Persona 3 would actually be an awesome game on PSP, you can go up a few floors while on the bus or something, then put it on sleep and continue on.

I seriously doubt the game would be too big for UMD. Not all that much actual cutscene time (and h.264 encoding at 480x272 wouldn't take up much room at all), and voices and music can be compressed while still sounding good on the PSP's speakers / headphones. Otherwise, there really isn't a whole lot to the game, when you consider how small it is territory wise.

I'm impressed that we have already gotten from "Plz plz Atlus bring over this niche-ass expansion disc for an already niche-ass game that everyone kind of already assumed was not going to come out in the US" to "and while you're at it, spend extra $$$ completely recoding it to release on a completely different platform." Good work everyone!

What's FES stand for? It seems to be related to Persona 3 from your post, but does it stand for something?
Given how Atlus JP has treated the PSP so far you honestly think a PSP port is likely? More likely than a Wii port even? Really?shidoshi said:
Really?
Anyway yeah, I'm usually dead set against these type of ports my-self, but for some reason I really want to hit shadows with the Wiimote.

Even though I haven't finished P3 yet I can't wait for this, I have been treating P3 like a fine wine, taking in small sips in order to savor it. I'm currently up to August and its already the best RPG I have played.

A spin-off of the RPG Persona, Fes (or "Festival of Persona 3") consists of Persona 3's content along with 30 hours of additional gameplay. The new gameplay comes primarily in the form of the "Gojitsudan," a story sequence that comes after the original's ending, with new cinematic sequences in addition to the added gameplay. While the main storyline is the same, it's been tuned up with new events. Gameplay has been updated as well, with a new "hard" setting (the original had just easy and normal), 23 new Personas, a weapon synthesis system and a system for changing your characters' clothes.

No answer to this yet...anyone know exactly what transfers over from a P3 save to FES? And if there's any difference in using a regular P3 save as opposed to a clear?XiaNaphryz said:
XiaNaphryz said:
It applies to all P3 saves. P3 Fes doesn't differentiate between a clear save and a regular save. You don't get much though, it only carries over the Persona database, your academy/charm/courage parameters, special items you get from maxing out communities and the mixraid list. Everything else is reset.

That's acceptable to me, saves time on grinding in the first couple of months so one can focus on the social links. Does your level carry over at all, since the Persona database does?duckroll said:
