I've played way too many games that have Wendee Lee voicing a character. It's almost unnerving. I also started replaying Star Ocean The Last Hope and came to the frightening realization that Reimi is voiced by Laura Bailey, who also voices Rise in Persona 4.

At first I figured it would be Persona 4, because between it and it's vita remake I've played through it nearly ten times. Then I started thinking a bit more and I think if anything I've spent the most time on Dark Cloud 2. I'm obsessive, so I've spent a ton of time making perfect weapons...

Free to play games with indomitable pay walls Waiting for Persona 4 Golden. Bills.

The opening act of Xenosaga Episode I. I know Xenosaga is cutscene heavy as it is, but the opening act has some of the longest and most intrusive cutscenes, plus you're forced to drag around a temp party member who is completely useless.

I would totally go with this one as well. Plus that world is relatively safe and has little chance of random death.

Ameno-sagiri from Persona 4. My attacks were hardly denting it and Yukiko kept getting knocked out due to needing to heal while everyone else piled on damage. I think I heard the boss music loop at least 4 times during the fight.

Dark Cloud 2. Hands down.

Either way, you're pretty much fine starting wherever you want with these games. It comes down to what you're looking for. Nocturne/Strange Journey/Digital Devil Saga/Persona 1/2 are more straightforward JRPGs while Persona 3 and 4 have the social elements to them as well.

No, you're not. I'm wondering why anyone ever thinks that he or she is the "only one who _____"

My physical copy of Persona 1 for PSP. UMD case was broken, CD case broken, box was in crappy condition. This was a new copy from the store too.

I love Square's games, but hearing this from a guy whose company is still working on titles before the PS3 was even launched irks me.

It depends on the difficulty and game. I tend to do better with trophies that just require some time and effort, rather than something like getting through the game without so much as touching the ground. I also prefer trophies that I can't miss by playing too quickly or something. However I...

Warriors Orochi 3, Pokemon Conquest, Shantae Risky's Revenge, the iDOLM@STER 2, Diablo 3. Persona 3 Portable is also somewhere in there.

Elderly white people. Granted most that I have met always are quick to point out my race and "how much good [my] kind has done" and frankly I'm sick of it. So I tend to ignore them. I guess you can also add conservatives to the list, no thanks to the large tea party influence in my city.

I still can't believe how self-entitled certain gamers feel. When I bought a UMD I wasn't thinking to myself "oh boy I sure hope this works on every Sony system ever." It' just like a license. When I bought say, God Eater Burst on UMD, I was buying just that. The game on UMD. At no point was...
