One of the last great RPG games for the PS2 (until Persona 4...) November 24, 2008

If you have the original to begin with, this version is still definitely worth the asking price: an extra 30+ hour mission named the Answer, set after the events of the original. If you don't own the original, then this is simply a MUST BUY: the original game (the Journey) stands alongside the expansion, along with a plethora of new personae, items and scenarios. Whether you are a veteran or a newcomer to the series, this is one of the best RPGs available.
The PS2's best RPG? November 8, 2008

.....It could very well be- if you're into JRPG's and anime in general, then it's likely this will be the big shiny jewel atop the PS2's crown for you.
For those who don't know- this version is essentially a 'director's cut' of the original Persona 3- which became my favourite RPG ever (until this version came out, of course.) It has everything he original had, plus more- more characterisation, more Personas to find/create.... but that's not the main thing. This version contains the extra chapter- "The Answer," that take place after the main story (called "The Journey") Yeah- that's up to about another 30 hours play time crammed in with all the other extras!
The story focuses around a young hero (you) moving to a new city and transferring to a new school where he soon discovers he has a power called "Persona"... a power that allows him to enter the "dark hour" and fight enemies that only people with the power can see- the Shadows. He find he's not the only one with such a power and joins a school group that fights the shadows for the sake of..... well, you'll find out. ^_^ Unlike his fellow Persona-users though, the hero has the ability to command up to 170 different Personas! But the game's not all about fighting- half of the game is about going through a year in the hero's life in school- making friends, girlfriend(s) :), and various activities- it all adds so much to the game's overall experience and creates an incredibly deep world full of characters you will feel a real attachment to. And that's what an RPG should do, right? ^_^
To sum up: it's an incredible game and well worth getting even this late in the PS2's lifespan- it blows many 'next-gen' RPG's clean out of the water. The modern japanese, unique, and often morbid style of the game (did I mention that the character's summon their Persona's by shooting themselves in the head?) will easily appeal to anime fans, and even if you aren't a said fan, you're still getting a near-flawless RPG.
A great RPG made even better! October 17, 2008

Persona 3 was one of the best rpgs I had played in a long time because of the pure uniqueness of the game and the originality. Now that I have Persona 3 FES it adds more to the story and has some great extra content, which adds to this marvelous to this rpg.
This is a must buy for people who have missed out on the original as well as SMT fans.
