Started on Persona 3 about a month, it has been quite enjoyable that I look forward to play time each evening.
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 was developed and published by Atlus for the Sony PlayStation 2 console system. It is the third game for the Shin Megami Tensei series and was released in North America mid-August 2007.
The main character portrays a high school senior which had just transfered to Gekkoukan High School. Due to many events which had occurred in the past, the Dark Hour takes place each night, a period which occurs prior to the turning of the next day. Only a selected few remain conscious during this time frame, one being the main character, while the others remain in coffins and unaware of this event.
This is where fun begins, the high school transfers into a huge labyrinthine tower called “Tartarus.” Along comes beasts called “Shadows,” who lurk viciously within the tower, preying on the minds of the conscious. The main character along with the members of the “Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad” (SEES), has taken the duty to battle against phenomena.
Each member possess the potential, which is the ability to summon a Persona to aid his or her in battle. A Persona has unique abilities such as special attacks and healing attributes. To call forth one, one has to aim and fire a gun-like object called an “Evoker” at his or her head. This has not provide any physical damage to its user, however, emotional stress could be brought forth the Persona.
The game occurs over the course of Japanese school calendar year, which runs from April to mid-July. Daily life revolves attending class, school activities or trips to locations around town. Nights are spending in battle and/or studying and sleep. Activities are used on leveling up one’s ability and skills.

I’m currently playing Persona 3 FES, which is the director’s cut to the game and includes both Persona 3 and its expansion pack — titled The Journey and The Answer, respectively.
Forty plus hours have been played, there has not been an ounce of boredom. Each of the characters have been well developed with their own personalities and abilities. Though, the plot possess typical RPG elements, the dialog had been nicely written — understandable and informative, as well as, witty and humorous at times. The artwork is also unique and creative, which I have taken a fond of.
With that said, I continue to embark The Journey , hoping to complete the game by the end of the year and begin The Answer after the holidays. There is still three more powerful bosses to defeat and numerous of paths must be open to climb the massive ‘Tartarus,” however, I think I will be able to accomplish it.
