Persona 2, eternal punisment's theme was a mature one, the chracters, story, dialouge made this a good game for me to play , i came across this title accidentally. I was really hoping that persona 3 would live up to that, but what a dissapointment! Persona 3 is aimed at 12 - 14 year olds.

I haven't played it but i read about it in PSM and it sounded disappointing. I love the first two and im afraid the way they changed some of it will ruin the the look of Persona.

They need to sell more I think, and yes compared to P2 is way too childish, it's a good game regardless.
I hope P4 will change that.

The characters have to face their own death in P3. This is by no means childish. The atmosphere of a happy high-school town adds to the irony of the overall macabre ultimatum.

Well, that an interesting way of seeing it.

-eye roll-

Yes, I have always considered people (including an elementary student) holding guns to their heads (no matter that they aren't real) something for 12-14 year olds. What kind of kids you know?

I dont see how you can think a game where people shoot themselves in the head and summon giant **** in a chariot demons (Mara!) is childish...

for persona i like the original best due to storyline and originality. yeah graphics weren't as good compared to new installments, but hey! sometimes graphics isn't what makes the game.

and wow come on people, it's just a game...no strings attached lol
