Persona 4: Arena, coming to usa console summer 2012! New character: Elizabeth from the Velvet Room!

Apparently Mitsuru's R - Action has alot of blockstun which makes punishing it difficult with some characters. The blockstun should be reduced or Mitsuru needs more recovery on the R - Action.

DP > Bufudyne is quite silly.

I hope Arcsys doesn't go crazy with all the nerfs. I don't ever want to see anything end up like EX Makoto or CS1 Rachel again.

ugh... why is the title of the US version of the game is different from the original Japanese arcade title? It is just because "it is a console version"? And what about Japanese console version? Couldn't see it announced. I was wondering, if there is a JP version it could see the stores even before autumn?..

Yeah, I really hope the patch is nothing major. I can't see anything so far in the game that is too ridiculous. Unless it's some kinda UMvC3 Jill scenario where they patched out tech for a character we "haven't discovered yet".

Release for console versions is summer 2012 for all regions, iirc. The title of the game was changed likely in part because, in the US version of P4, there is no "Mayonaka Television". Instead, it's called the "Midnight Channel". I suppose they could've left it as "The Ultimate in Midnight Arena", but eh. Localization choices.

Kinda hope that they remove super cancelling DPs on block. It's kinda silly for some characters *coughmitsurucough*

Oh and that they make Chie's counter at least somewhat punishable.

I also noticed Yu do it, and I must admit it was quite retarded.

Does Chie's counter lose to throws?

I've heard it doesn't, it completely beats them.

The difference between Yu's and Mitsuru's is that his has far far less blockstun so it's much easier to punish. But I agree that it should be removed completely, let them one more cancel if they have the meter though.

The Weeaboo inside me will always call it Persona 4 The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena.

You know, I wanted to buy the Japanese version just for the voices and Kaiji narrator, but now that I've learned about the whole DLC region lock business, I'm not that sure. Oh well, make that another wish for the English version to have dual audio.

EDIT: Wait, this doesn't have anything to do with the region lock, but with the payment method. Ignore my half-asleep ramblings.

I really hope it has dual audio. Atlus made the Disgaea series dual audio and Arc also does dual as well, so here's to hoping. If not, I'll probably just import :P

I hope it has dual-audio as well, it's nice to have the option once in a while. Regardless i'm probably keeping it English 99% of the time anyway, dat Liam O'Brien (assuming he comes back to voice Aki :< )

S-so glorious

I just like the way the game is called in abbreviation: P4U, and that 'tag' is freaked up now bringing a new 'P4A'. Just confusing it will be video searching etc...

Well, Shadow Labrys hits arcades this week, let's see what Arksys came up with regarding her persona.

I thought her "Persona" was Asterios. I know his head just kinda follows SLabrys around, but I just assumed his actions acted like any other Persona. I could be wrong, though.

This should be correct.

Well if they are going with the "puppet" char thing with that massive persona, idk how they can balance that.

From the snippets of gameplay we've seen, Asterios' head doesn't seem too big when he's sitting beside Shlabrys. He only seems really big when he does certain moves, but it only lasts for a second. Doesn't seem to bad, but whatever. I'm only going off 20 seconds of footage so I could be wrong, lol.

If Asterios was like Gold Lightan/ PTX in TvC, well... I wouldn't be as happy.

Posted

^ LOL I remember those times.

My main concern is how easy would be to hit Asterios because of him being massive. But yeah, they both hit arcades this week, Im pretty sure Arksys didn't do anything too reckless. (I hope)

Amazon and Gamestop have it set as August 7 right now and Atlus said it would be coming out in August here, so I'd say that's a good date to go with for now.
