 Great graphics, music, setting, etc., but repetative gameplay. June 26, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I really liked this game when I first started playing it. It has great graphics for a PS2 game. The music is really good and draws you into the mood of the game. The characters are well developed. The general mood and theme of the game are really good ranging from the light and bouncy NPCs to the dark battle areas. However, I've never been a fan of games like "The Sims" where you have to build up relationships and such over time and you only get to do one or two things a day. There's not much immediate gratification from those kinds of things. That would be OK though if the battle system were more interesting. However, it's like one of those old random dungeon crawlers. You wander through some non-distinct areas with enemies that are not very creative and mostly just upgrades from past levels and then you hit a road block. Once you get to a certain level of the "dungeon" you can't go any further until the right day where you can fight a boss and then the levels open up again. This leads to not really needing or desiring to go back since there's not going to be anything new to do or any new goals. So most of the days you just go do the sim stuff and it gets a little boring. I really want to go back to playing it because I enjoyed the main story line and the creating new personas, but I can't get myself to go back to it for more than a couple of hours at a time and there are so many other good games for the PS2 that I haven't played.
So, if you are a fan of "The Sims" then you may like this since the battles are really not even that hard or important to the storyline. But if, like me, you got bored of The Sims after a few days of playing it, then you'll get bored of this game too.
 Amazing game @ an Amazing Price June 19, 2008
So, the best RPG I played all last year gets an awesome special edition.
This comes with an expanded edition of the original (new character costumes, Personas, and social links) 100 hour+ RPG. t also comes with the, previously only in Japan, Expansion disc with another 50+ hours f gameplay. That's 150+ hours of gameplay from this little collection, of one of the most interesting and unique RPGs to come out EVER for the PS2.
Needless to say, I was Very Impressed
It's the little things... June 19, 2008
I'll keep this short so..
It's the little things that Atlus/SMT added that make this game so much better than the original. The costumes, the dialog, Elizabeth!! Oh man, she is so cool. The fact that you can import your demons and social attributes (even if you didn't beat P3)is pretty nice as well. All the times you wished that the arcade was open or the train station was a little bigger: Fulfilled. Buy this game, and never trade it in.

The game was fun and refreshing when I first started playing. However, both the non-combat portions and the battles became tiresome.
Furthermore, maybe it's because that I do not understand JRPGs, the storyline did not draw me into the game. Even the FF10 cut scenes made more sense to me.
Lastly, the frequently appearing loading screen drove me nuts.
Update.
I tried playing the Answer for 10 hours and gave up. At least 90 percent of the time was spend grinding.
One of the best if not best RPG on the PS2 June 16, 2008
Hands down P3FES is one of the best RPG games to grace the PS2 console. The story is deep and the characters I got attached to. Soundtrack is great too. For the 29.99 price tag this game is a bargain. So those of you who haven't bought this game get out and get it before it's gone. Let's hope Atlus makes the right decision and releases Persona 4 in the US as well. Really hope that game makes it stateside!! Anyhow, buy this game..you will NOT regret it!!!
