    Yup, it was confirmed this morning. For those who don't know, Persona 3 is a PS2 RPG, one (if not) the best. You play as a high school students who is a master of social links and fight monsters (shadows) during the night. FES is an expension. It was released as expension or standalone in japan and will be standalone for North America at $29.99

    Persona 3 now theres a game I wish I had bought. Out of stock everywhere now and the price is up to about $75-80 online, and should only climb in time.

    Wow so we get all the original content + the new stuff for only $30? Thats awesome cause all i really wanted was to play the game not pay ridiculous prices for some art-book collectible.

    't

    Yup, in japan there was append at $45, where it asked to check the original's disk the first, and the version that does not need it for $75 (these are normal prices in japan).

    Atlus decided to make it $29.99 for the full (just for the heck of it, as said in the newsletter). You don't get the artbook & soundtrack though
