I really hope there isn't too much of a graphical difference between P5 for the PS3 and PS4.
I'd be more than happy with some AA, 1080p and 60fps to be honest.

It's a heavily stylised game so adding more graphical fidelity isn't going to help dramatically. The footage shown is also pretty similar to Catherine on PS3 so unless they fuck that up it should be fine.

It's more than likely just gonna be some higher res textures and better AA and stuff.
It won't be that noticeable though given how stylized the game is
So with the New 3DS's release on Friday, I have enough spare cash to get a game alongside the system. I'm torn between Persona Q, and SMT IV. Which would you guys recommend?
[QUOTE=RikohZX;47110777]That almost makes it sound like it's literally being made for PS4 first and then backported out of obligation to PS3.[/QUOTE]
PS3 has been out long enough that devs do know how to develop on it. When it first came out it was a different story.
PS4 is just a lot easier to develop on from the start.

this is less of a recommendation and more of a strategy, but SMTIV goes on sale in america ALL the time, so wait until it's on sale to buy it. PersonaQ will probably be full price for a while. just get IV when it's cheap, and PersonaQ at the current price if you really want to. canada gets america's deals, right?

Unlikely, P5 looks like it's adapted from Catherine's engine which was already around on PS3. So they most likely won't have to do any special work for the PS3 version, while they'll need to port Catherine's version of Gamebryo to the PS4 (Which admittedly probably won't take much work since the PS4 is easy to develop for).

Both are pretty awesome, I'd grab SMTIV first though since it's on sale at the moment, get PQ later when it gets cheaper or when you have more money to spare for it

It is not. Catherine's engine was Gamebryo. P5's engine is an in-house engine for Atlus.
I wish I could play it on my Xbox One. :words:
Does anyone know where i can get an mp3 or other such file of Akihikos "I've been waiting for this" without any background noise? My current text message prompt is getting old.

Thus my statement. They have Catherine and the Gamebryo engine to refer to for the PS3, but it seems like it'd be so much easier to create higher-definition assets and content via the PS4 that is easier to work with for their new engine, and then downport it all to the PS3 once everything's really going. And since there's no 360 and XB1 ports too, that helps narrow down the possible porting problems to either a lack of effort, or the system itself.

Sadly I think the American Gamestop and our Canadian EB Games have different prices for games. Taking a quick peek online, Gamestop has SMT IV at $20, and EB has it for $55. Stupid America and having better prices on games.
Ah well, so it's essentially pick up whichever is cheaper at the time. Thanks you two~

Here you go
Looking at the 3DS EShop page for Soul Hackers, it seems like it takes up more space on an SD card than SMTIV... It's a dreamcast game. Hooow?!
It would've fit on my SD card if it were the same size as or smaller than SMTIV, too.
[QUOTE=PSI Guy;47109071]if you want a good looking game then you must've meant a PC SMT game[/QUOTE]
PC SMT you say?

Worth it though, the setting is absolutely unique and so is the storyline. Also the soundtrack is marvelous.
God DAMN I got super lucky on the level 98 boss. Those fuckers wouldn't stop spamming mabufudyne skills or whatever followed up by a skill that got rid of my ice defense, but they miraculously didn't do it.
The entire fight was Aigis and I doing kill rush while Mitsuru healed.

I might just make an image of my current SD card and then clean out most of the shit on it.
I wasn't all that interested in playing P3 portable untill a friend told me [sp]You can save Shinji from dying if you max out his social link with the FeMC[/sp] [sp]You can find the pocket watch he lost and give it him to max it, and because he has that it stops the bullet that kills him later on, he still does nothing for the rest of the game because he goes into a coma.[/sp] [sp]He wakes up at the end for 'you know what'[/sp] ;-;

[sp]Too bad that whole thing fucks over Ken and Akihiko's character development and makes no sense which is another awful thing in P3P like Pharos and Ryoji being be male in the FeMC route when they should be female[/sp]

[sp] Honestly I don't really consider it any worse than FES adding in the ability to save Chidori, which pretty much invalidates Junpei's whole character arc. I also don't think Shinji surviving would suddenly cause them to just regress, the event of him getting into a coma is still pretty damn shocking.
I also think you take the non-canon route of FemMC a bit too seriously. While it doesn't entirely make sense, the stuff with Ryoji and Pharos I don't think are that big of a deal. Doesn't really make sense to have to shell out even more money for new voice actors and new art for them when the route's not gonna be considered canon anyway. The handful of flaws don't make the FemMC route not worth playing.
Take it for what it is, it's cute and not meant to replace the actual story. [/sp]
edit:
[sp] another thing worth considering, if Ryoji already had that male body to start with, wouldn't he still stay male when Aigis seals him inside the protagonist? Thanatos in mythology is male, so it makes sense he'd stay that way.[/sp]
Not meant to replace the actual story, only the story in my heart

You might want to buy just a new sd card. They are relatively cheap and you can change them pretty easily like catridges. That is what I did when I got SMT4 and my card was full.
Someone has uploaded some scans from some Japanese magazines.
Full body shot of Arsene (P5MC Persona)

Picture of the Protagonist summoning Arsene:

I am loving the blue flame and how it looks like it is chained to him.
(doesn't look like we will be becoming our personas.)
I wonder why people even thought you'd turn into your persona to be honest, the clip made it clear that it was the protag's shadow transforming into a persona.
Also, that shot of him summoning Arsene looks cool as hell.
Slightly better picture from a dungeon

Oh wow I thought Soejima has changed/evolved his artstyle but I'm surprised to see how similar this looks to the character concept art in Persona 4
I'm so glad that they took Catherine's "looks like a playable anime" style. It really gives life to the game. P3-P4 in that style would be mindblowing.
