Persona 4: Golden coming to U.S. this fall

If you haven't been keeping up with Persona 4: The Golden which is set for launch this summer in Japan, then you were probably jealous that it wasn't coming stateside. Worry no more! Atlus announced that Persona 4: Golden is coming to the U.S. this fall for the PlayStation Vita.

Persona 4: Golden is based on the popular PlayStation 2 title featuring a group of high school teenagers that have the ability to enter an alternate world through a television. There they battle Shadows, mysterious creatuers, using Personas to solve the mystery behind the disappearances that happen around town. Persona 4: Golden is exciting and adventurous RPG which has received a graphical update as well as the addition of new content such as Marie, a new party member.

finally an english localisation, want this game so bad, DAY 1

MUST HAS NOA!!!!!!!

Yes! Very excited, I am not one to harp on graphics, but this does look very PSP like, but I don't care at all.

from the official website...
xbox?? kinect??
wat

@supaphly: probly just a mistake.

They have confirmed that it was a copy and paste error.
100% vita exclusive

In a store here in Japan called Tsuaya (who sell games/ music/ books/ dvd, and rent out all of those except games), P4 is apparently more pre-ordered then P3 back on PS2.

Gaming dedicated stores are probably seeing slightly higher demand so its possible P4 could sell decently.

@Sinncross, I guess with the release of P4G the vita's sales will pick up as well since there are tons of gamers willing to purchase the vita just for P4G (including myself) and I can't wait for FFX HD, by far
My favourite FF. I just hope we get a P4G themed Vita bundle

I have this on ps2 but havent even touched it yet. May think of getting this for psp if they haven't removed any content, more specifically the anime cutscenes, like they did for the Persona 3 version. Playing RPG'S on a psp is so much more comfortable.

This is not for PSP, its for the PSV.
And they have expanded the game, not cut it down due to any limitations.

Extras include a new character, personas, outfits, more dialogue and anime cutscenes, a gardening mode, and the ability to call other online players into your game to help in dungeon battles.

that's funny because most people feel the complete opposite to what you said, they'd rather play everything on a console and won't even bother touching anything on a portable system.

but you should really give the ps2 version a playthrough,can't believe you haven't touched it, it's easily one of the best if not THE BEST game on ps2

New Opening Movie for Persona 4 The Golden by Madhouse :/

@dg. Play it. The battles get boring after a while, but its story makes you want to finish. Sadly, i never beat boss for good ending because i had to return the game. Will definately get this when i get a Vita

@Ragna
I fond playing RPG's on a handheld much more comfortable and I actually stay awake. While playing on console for some reason I either fall asleep, get bored or just get restless. Put it on a portable and I'm fine, maybe just because I can sit and play any way I want.

@Hell
Still busy with Persona 3: FES. Once I'm done with that and a couple of other RPG's I'll get to Persona 4. First have to get through Last Remnant & Infinite Undiscovery before considering playing any other RPG's.

looks like Atlus was really lazy with this trailer

So the music in that trailer "make history" is apparantly the new battlemusic.
Listened to it a few times now. Starting to grow on me.
Still have a softspot for "reach out for the truth" though.

pre-ordered

awesome cover, still need one for my vita

Extended version of the new battletheme: Make history.

Grew on me really fast. I like it
