This isn't bad, but I think I like Persona better. :/

Agreed, personally I wish they took Strange Journey over Devil Survivor. I felt like Strange Journey was a lot better. Pretty classic SMT gameplay.

Not a bad game though, I just kinda got bored of it and stopped playing after a while.

They done it before with Persona 3.
But that's a PS2 game. Not everyone has access to a PS2 or a backwards compatible PS3. It's different bringing a game to the 3DS when the 3DS is backwards compatible with NDS games.

PS2's are the highest selling game console ever made. I'm pretty sure it's not hard to get access to it.

I understand your point but you might as well spend a few more bucks on an enhanced version of the game on the 3DS than the older version on the DS.

Yeah I guess you are right. But it couldn't have hurt them when to wait a bit when the 3DS user base is established more...

is this gonna be a remake or a whole new story? i didnt really play devil survivor

It's a remake with an extra day of content added as well as difficulty levels (for those of you who want to throw your 3DS against a wall for being stupid enough to try to fight Lucifer on the hardest difficulty

) and even 20-something new demons to battle/recruit. They also redrew all the art in the game and added voice acting.

It's what they do, dude. Remember Persona 3:FES?

I am sure they were going to re-release this game on the DS even if the 3DS was not coming out.

Anyways, I am excited. I played through halfway into the first one, and my save was wiped. I was really liking it, I am a huge SMT fan. I am playing Persona 3 & 4 now, having a lot of fun.

Only FES was originally sold as an expansion. In Japan you could buy either the FES new content in a cheaper append disk, or pay full price for both P3 and the FES new content.

It's how the series is - it dabbles very closely to religion and mythology. It sticks with the lore behind major religions, as opposed to using direct names in most cases. (Instead of saying Jesus, they'll say Messiah or Savior, for example, and Satan, Lucifer, and Beelzebub are all different characters as opposed to being the same entity.)

If you're super hard core religious (as in you won't tolerate any kind of deviation or slander), I'd look into the series before giving it a spin.

But all of the stories are awesome. When I found out:

HUGE SPOILERS FOR DEVIL SURVIVOR
That the main character is a reincarnation of the first murder victim, Abel

Mind = Blown

Except that if it weren't for the US release of FES, a P3 game wouldn't have been sold at a reasonable price, and i wouldn't have gotten into Persona, Fes was my first and my enjoyable Persona game.

Wow, they made really good choices for the voice actors.
Everyone sounded the same as how I imagined them to sound like.

I remember reading a post about Yuzu's voice sounding annoying, you should try playing the game to understand why. xD
(But I don't hate her like most of the people who played the game, she's actually the most humane out of all the main characters.)

Only thing I didn't like is how Amane's actor made "th" sounds when the last words on her sentences ended with hard consonants.
"Leading mankind into his lighth, to reform the worldth"
LOL
They should train her more and rerecord her lines.

It's the same case on Small of Two Pieces, but it's still a great song anyway.

Same!

Though the voice acting is a bit bad, but I can live with it
