Persona 3 portable best party series#
It has the best boss in the series too, at least of the ones I’ve played.
Some of them are stand outs for the series as a whole, especially best girl anti-shadow robot Aigis, super smart dog Koromaru and the aforementioned Shinjiro. It’s not all doom and gloom though SEES are all likable, helped by Kotone having social links with them all. The game’s best boy Shinjiro Aragaki doesn’t need to take the pills but he does anyway, because one time his newly awakened persona went out of control and killed a civilian. One really cool plot point that’s oddly never been touched since is characters with personas who go berserk, and it has to be kept in check with pills that ruin their bodies and drastically shorten their lifespans. There is only Tartarus a cold, imposing tower stretching into the eerie green sky. The Dark Hour is still, creepy and intimidating and there are no elaborate, themed dungeons. The core theme of the game is death: as an unstoppable force, a natural part of life, a spectre that’s affected everyone in the main cast personally and something everyone has to come to terms with “Memento Mori” is explicitly stated in the game’s opening cutscene. The story is quite straightforward compared to other games in the series, but it has some great ideas and its tone and atmosphere are superb. Turns out her dorm mates are members of the Specialised Extracurricular Execution Squad or SEES, which despite the name somehow masquerades as a regular school club, but in actuality hunts the monstrous shadows during the “Dark Hour” a hidden period of time that kicks in at midnight where the moon turns green, all water turns to blood, regular people turn into coffins and Gekkoukan turns into a massive tower called Tartarus. Anyway, Kotone Shiomi, as she’s officially called now, is just getting started with her new school life when her dorm is attacked by a monster and she awakens to two different personas, one of whom ferociously rips said monster apart. She also has the ability to keep relationships platonic rather than the male MC having to romance every girl he hangs out with. The original, male lead offers the same experience, but there’s a new female main character who has social links with the male members of the party, letting you hang out with the whole team. Right away Portable has one up on the other versions by giving you a choice of protagonists. You are a new transfer student arriving on Tatsumi Port Island to attend Gekkoukan High. My favourite is still P5 Royal, but 3 is dear to me as well I love its sombre, melancholic tone and the constant underlying sadness that accompanies even the game’s most triumphant moments. It’s been years since I played it: the version I played more recently was P3FES, so it was interesting to relive it on a big screen having become more accustomed with, and a lot better at, Persona games. The combat had some neat additions also, the best and most noticeable of which being the ability to control every party member directly, something that really changes the dynamic of fights.

Persona 3 portable best party psp#
Persona 3 Portable was the PSP port of Persona 3, with an additional protagonist who had different social links and character interactions, and menus in place of an overworld you can freely explore. Well, Persona 3 is out on current gen consoles and you know what that means: it can be on my game of the year list.
