With Persona 3 Portable (henceforth known as P3P) release 3-4 days back, here’s a blog entry with hilarious translation of the game’s promotional video.

For everyone else playing Love Plus, check the event schedule! A girl techno unit called Parfume will be playing at the event hall, starting on the second week of November.

Wait, girl techno? Parfume? Wait, what?

Will Love Plus emulate reality to the extent of there not being seats at all (And thus potentially make Rinko angry at me for dragging her to a crowded mosh pit of crazed fans?)? Will there be a PTA?

I… I don’t really understand anymore. I’ll go! I’ll go to this Parfume live!

And sign me up for PTA.

In other news, Fujita Saki (Voice of Hatsune Miku) has gone from voicing bananas to voicing pudding. I am gripped by a sudden urge to get one of those.

Hi.

Susukida, in charge of the direction of Persona 3 Portable here.

Till now, I have been working alongside Hashino and Soejima in Persona 3 and 4, designing event scenes, adding bits here and there to pace the story, but this time I will be working with the game system director Kido on the system layout and graphic design!

Hi, Hashino here.

The release date of Persona 3 Portable is drawing near

Getting into the Top 30 Most Anticipated new game releases on Weekly Famitsu has been something greater than what we had expected.

The readers may have had a chance to experience the game at the Tokyo Game Show last week, too.

How was it?

An update of translations of the entries on the Famitsu Persona 3 Portable Creator’s blog. Meguro Shoji probably needs no introduction, and I’m really looking forward to the new tracks.

On to the translation of his first entry!

Hi, This is Meguro, in charge of the music of Persona 3 Portable

It’s been a month since the announcement of Persona 3 Portable, and some game screencaps have been released, so I’ll continue with an update on the music side.

If you choose the female main character in Persona 3 Portable, there is a selection of music tracks just for her route

I could only test out the characters with my copy of the game last weekend, trying to unlock all the characters. I like Kara no Kyoukai’s Ryogi Shiki the best, so obviously she’ll be my favourite character in the game (previously, I always change to Arcuied/Len as my main character(s) ). As she’s new, I need to learn out suitable combos to met out against my foes, and youtube enabled me to search for one video that’s pretty useful. Before that I was using Half-Moon Style, but after watching this video, I might convert to the Cresent Moon Style instead..

Wait, what?

Am I slow, or has this been announced on some corner of the internet? It says Little Busters Converted Edition after all, and doesn’t that refer to the PS2 edition? Still, it says Nintendo DS under console.

I… don’t know what to think anymore. In any case, here’s the link to the original post on Famitsu. The baseball bit would work out just fine on the DS, though…

Edit: It seems to be a typo, and is now fixed to say PS2 on the source.

I have a cold and a test tomorrow, but this comes first!
I’ll try to keep up as much as possible, but for now, here’s the first post from the Persona 3 Portable Creator’s Blog.

Aion: Tower of eternity Review By Serenity

Critic Reviews

- RPGFan Aion is an incredibly polished experience that refines the best aspects of the genre and creates a spectacular new world.

- PC Gamespot An Adventure worth the monthly fee’s and the time

Review – Serenity

Aion: Tower of eternity, follows a story of your character constantly evolving into the world that it provides, with two races  of Elyos and Asmodian. the story evolves through quests and CGI/in-game movie scenes ( a first of its kind besides guild wars ) and you can really feel the depth they have put into this game

For example. standing still your character will move around, hold up an umbrella in the rain, or stretch from boredom and show you that it want’s to move around and explore.

Fighting fatigues you, the more health you loose. the weaker your character gets and it shows, you bend down and your movements become much slower.

A lot of little details are payed attention to in this game. even the way a tree blow’s in the wind or the rain fall’s depending on which way your running and the wind blows the dust to a certain direction.

For me, this makes the game extremely exciting and more enjoyable than most bland games that leave out the little things that I think matter.

All in all a great game. and worth the money. the leveling system is unique in its own right. the armor crafting system is great, the PvP system is stable and balanced, and the graphics are untouched by any other MMORPG right now.

Graphics – 8.6
Game play- 9.6
Storyline – 7.5
Character development – 9.7

All in all I’d give it a 9.6/10
