So, I just checked some videos to P4A again, and noticed something - seems like the game will get two more characters, as recent screenshots show two more icons. And there are already plenty of guesses on Youtube about the new characters, especially since one of the character themes is confirmed to be I'll Face Myself. Well, I'm still hoping Adachi manages it to get in...

Also, there was an interesting announcement last week that I didn't notice up until now. Guess that we're getting another 3DS-remake of a SMT game, though this time, it's one that never reached the US or Europe. Also, it seems like Devil Survivor Overclocked and Devil Survivor 2 will finally reach Europe... I guess I finally have a reason to get a 3DS then. Too bad that I already imported Devil Survivor 2, though.

Now doesn't this look awesome? I just came across this site a few hours ago. Hopefully, they'll update that page soon.

So Persona 4 Arena came out today. Anyone else have it? It's pretty fun, though all I've done are some random battles with my brother.

My brother got it. I watched him go through the first two battles in Yu's chapter in story mode, though he's making me watch the anime before I can play it myself. :(

What system do you have it on? Xbox or PS3? I got it on Xbox.

PS3 because that's the system real men have.

Hey, don't get me wrong, I really like the PS3 and I have one. But I get my multi-console games on Xbox because I'm paying for Xbox Live so I might as well use it. And I have more RL friends with Xboxs.

Yeah... but I don't really like use the control pad for fighters anyway, I know it's technically better, but I can't stand using either control pad for fighters. And since I use the analog stick, that doesn't even matter between systems.

But still, we should be talking about the game. I'm really liking Naoto, but Akihiko interests me as well. I would be messing with both of them right now, but my brother is currently playing.

I think these kind of fighters are better played with the D-Pad. Also, I'd get the game for PS3 (I don't own a PS3 or a XBox360 yet. orz). Judging from some gameplay videos, mostly the tutorial and moveset ones Atlus shared, I'd porbably use Naoto and Elizabeth as my main characters. (Those One-Hit KO moves can be deadly! Even if you have to be lucky.)

All my online games of Naoto have ended in failure. So I've decided to spend some time in training with her. I really like her fate counter system and it's great if I can manage to get the enemy to zero, because I have a pretty sure fire way of getting Mudoon off.

EDIT: Techno Remix of Aria of the Soul is badass.

Auto-combo have lowered damage

and in Blaz Blue with my characters I was better without the Beginner Mode that with, even by just knowing some short combos and failing to do Distortions

I don't really mind the autocombos much (I first loathed the idea, but it's not so bad now) but I think Yu's autocombo was way too much damage for being an autocombo. Everytime one manages to hit me with it, I seem to lose close to a fourth of my health.

Every time Elizabeth does her 60+ hit combo against me in story mode I just start busting out laughing, since nobody else usually gets much in on me.

Also holy shit this story mode.

I guarantee you that I fail as Chie more, since I haven't played fighting games much. ;P At least I know a few combos now, though. PSN: PreyingShark

Well thanks to mafia and ival i've figured out some things with labrys. a fun night of p4a to be certain. Ekaru, you should have caught me on IRC to join in. I'll let you know when we're playing again though.

I would complain about my losses, but I literally hate fighting against every single character in this game as Naoto for wildly different reasons. Which is dreadful because I really enjoy playing Naoto.

What do you hate when fighting other characters? Really the only ones I can't stand as Naoto are Mitsuru (Massive range) and Yukiko (always seem to outzone me) Everyone else I'm fine with going against.

Well, I was playing labrys, and labrys hurts. Take into account naoto only has 8000 health.... Also take into account her long range normal attacks.

Oh, well let's see.

Labrys: Has ridiculous reach on j.b meaning I can't really approach safely, easily outranges my melee normals.
Mitsuru: Same ridiculous reach, just a lot more combo heavy
Aigis: Orgia Mode is disgusting. Thankfully I don't fight many Aigises.
Yukiko: Dia is projectile immune so forced to stay within double fangs range. j. D doesn't even work against Dia. Also, maragi combos and unblockable fire. Traps are of limited use vs zoners.
Narukami: Still 100% free to raging lion and swift strike. Also the whole persona mixup shit is frightening still. Easily maneuvers around gunshot angles.
Elizabeth: Thanatos combos. Magarudyne is projectile immune. Traps aren't much use here either.
Yosuke: EX run and moonsault->crescent slash. Sukukaja is just bad news.
Chie: Rushdown too strong for my trivial defense fundamentals.
Kanji: Probably the least troublesome but takes forever and 2 mistakes is generally enough to lose.
Teddie: I haven't actually fought many teddies, but I know what they're capable of. Stack of tv's, range on baseball bat, item drops, teleporting DP, rage effects, etc
Akihiko: j. C
Shadow Labrys: Can't zone due to persona's guard so forced to rushdown without the life lead. Also has some really nasty setups and still has j. b.

At the end of the day, it's mostly the fault of my poor defense but I don't exactly have a lot of health to afford making mistakes.

Okay! I guess I'll have an IRC client logged into #videogames at all times, then.

@Ivalset: Your list is pretty accurate for me, even though we play entirely different characters. <_<;

P4D is surprisingly hype, PQ is a little disappointing due to artstyle/lack of FeMC but still exciting, Arena update is going to be cool, and P5 is kind of whatever since everyone already knew work was being done on it and we still haven't seen a goddamn thing yet.

I for one am very hype about PQ, due to it being done by the Etrian Odyssey team. (that's where the artstyle comes from)

Yeah, PQ is just the thing to look forward to after my first playthrough of 4/Golden. I'm late to the party, but yeah. I always am.

P4D is ridiculous. I both want to destroy and want to own it.

Despite the lack of actual info on 5, though, that trailer has got me hyped. Pretty eerie.

I really really like Meguro's music, but I'm not sure if I could stomach such a game.

P4Ds story is part of the main story like P4A, so that by itself means something.

Gah, I really need to get my 3DS.

P4A tied into the Persona 4 story?

I'm guiltily looking forward to P4D mostly because I own a Vita and enjoy Rhythm games.

Apparently takes place a few months after Persona 4.
And possibly the fighting game with the biggest story mode.
It has a shit ton of dialogue, not to mention they're all voiced too.
