I'd imagine it's less your average Street Fighter sequel and more your average BlazBlue sequel, given their respective focuses on plot.

Ugh, great. I felt confident in buying Persona 4 Arena relatively soon after release because it didn't seem like the kind of fighting game that would get one of these lazy "sequels" or "expansions". So much for that, I guess.

This game isn't like Street Fighter where there's not really much to the story. Persona 4 Arena has a lot of plot... kind of too much to be honest. I still have to finish it because there's so much text to read in the story mode.

That's super and all but less-than-substantial changes to gameplay and more plot doesn't justify the eventual $60/$40 price point

Whoever didn't see this coming when they saw the developer of the first one was ArkSys should be slapped upside the head.

Still, no problem with Takeba and Stupei getting added. Also, all characters getting Shadow forms (should be interesting for Yu, since he technically never had one.)

Now, I note there are two spaces on the roster that are blank. Ignoring plot (because Kirijo Group ain't got to explain shit because SCIENCE), odds of the P3 MC(s) getting in?

No doubt Fuuka will join Rise as an announcer.

Odds on the P3MC are remarkably low considering he's kind of preoccupied at present. And Fuuka was DLC in the first game.

Apparently Junpei went on to coach a baseball team. He has a weird "baseball diamond" mechanic in-game. Every time he lands a hit, a batter advances, and the more runs he scores, the stronger his attacks get.

Like I said... Kirijo Science.

But seriously, Takeba's getting Wiping All Out if not. Would fit with her being a super-sentai actress now.

As for Junpei, I'm going to have a lot of fun yelling, "WHO'S DA MAN?!" and "GET BACK HERE, YOU SON OF A--"

[Blivsey]

Poor ol' Liz would have gotten her Fool for nothing if all we needed was Kirijo Science. Then again, we do have portable Dark Hour now...

I would be thrilled to get a remix of Wiping All Out. She's not your princess, don't you know That said, here's a bunch of Junpei. It's only letting me post one video, so check the channel for the other two rounds. HOME RUN

Wait, more P4A? Fucking sweet. I didn't think it would see a sequel either, but fuck, shut up and take my money.

Betting on PS3 game, and what a send off for the PS3 it shall be.

Translations of the P4U2 page, including the standard early story elements. Apparently Inaba just can't shake off that fog shit.

Also, if you weren't sure they were serious about Shadows:

Getting three matching Teddies causes all of them to shake, but nothing else happens... What?
