Dog lemme tell you man, I got my Vita before P4G dropped, and I wasn't a huge RPG head on PS2 like that so shyt wasn't on my radar at all like that. I was strictly a "Squaresoft got a new game out? INSTACOP" dude, so I didn't even know what the fukk an Atlus was.
Copped the Vita and was looking at what games would be dropping and kept hearing hype on Persona 4 Golden, and decided to check out Persona 3 Portable(the PSP remake of P3) and man...I instantly fell in love with that shyt. I sunk wayyy too many hours into it between that July to when P4G dropped. Copped Day 1 and it was a wrizzap. There are very few games that make me wanna NG+ right the fukk away after credits roll...man I powered thru that shyt like twice, didn't touch any other game on my Vita during that time man
And even after all the greatness of P4G...I still like P3P more. I just wish I could get a full on 100% free roam remake like P4 instead of the point and click feature during the daytime. However, the story, characters, the social links, the dark ass atmosphere...that major swerve...everything in P3P just felt better to me than P4G, but both are great games yo. P3 and P4 kinda killed off my desire to play RPG's for a little bit though cause my expectations had been raised too high.
