Taking advantage of PSP system's 16:9 aspect ratio, higher resolution display, superior audio, and increased horsepower, this remastered version of one of the pinnacles of ATLUS' flagship Shin Megami Tensei franchise delivers the game in style with a sleek new interface, new sidequests in the Climax Theater, and the player's choice of the fully remixed or original soundtrack.Show more

it's easy to write off the psp post of persona 2: innocent sin due to its frustrating battle system, but doing so means you miss out on a brilliant story with incredible depth i don't believe the persona series has come close to replicating since. i fell in love w this game slowly, then all at once, similarly to how the plot plays out in a surprising mirror of the game's events,,, but that's where innocent sin's beauty lies. it's a game w shocking depth when you take the time to look at it from every angle, and it has a lot to say abt the nature of truth and trauma. one's father may define them, but overcoming said father will lead to self-actualisation; quite a hopeful message, if i'm honest, in a society where older generations pull up the ladder on younger generations. we don't need success and the security of turning into the same dusty, grey men our fathers are. we can become our own ppl, follow our own dreams, and live w youthful exuberance.
perhaps the pain in that lies in innocent sin's deepest conflict, which i won't spoil here. everything in this game has a duality; hope links to hopelessness, arrogance links to shattered self-esteems, freedom ties right in w enmeshment by the time the curtain falls. sumaru's a fascinating city w a wealth of depth (hell, the duality's present on the bloody map!) and the way rumours intersect w ppl's dreams and anxieties give innocent sin added stakes. not only are you fighting yourself and the life that's been laid out for you, but you're also fighting a world that's suffering from the same dilemma. there are those who see the world as heading towards life, and those who steer it towards destruction, but you have the power to change, however small or big. ripples turn into waves, mistakes turn into disaster, yet innocent sin always offers you a chance to keep dreaming.
i didn't expect this game to affect me so deeply, and yet i couldn't stop crying for hours afterwards. giving others that experience would be a joy.
Played this one out of order, here in the US we originally only got Persona 2: Eternal Punishment and missed out on Persona 2: Innocent Sin which was unfortunate as it left me pining for this game for years.
However, eventually they released it in this region for PSP and I loved P2: EP enough that I had to buy a PSP to play this one for seeing the other side of the story. Was the PSP port perfect, no. Yet I was far from disappointed, I just feel lucky to finally have experienced the whole story.

Metal SagaA follow-up to the Metal Max games, Metal Saga is set in the same post-apocalyptic world as its predecessors - a world populated by bounty hunters, rangers, bandits, and mutant monsters. You take the role of a bounty hunter who has to travel the world, looking for "wanted" people. Accompanied by a soldier, a mechanic, and a cyborg dog, the hero must survive a journey west that will ultimately take him to remote places and lead him to battles against evil.
Metal Saga has a less linear story line that one would normally expect from a Japanese RPG - a story line that develops according to the missions you decide to take, which in their turn lead to new events and finally to different endings. The combat system features traditional party management and turn-based battles, with the addition of Metal Max's trademark tank combat. When you acquire tanks for your characters, you can use them in battles. Tanks get damaged and broken, but you will be able to customize them by finding parts scattered across the world and assembling them to build new models. Based on the model of tank many different kinds of weapons, cannons, and accessories can be equipped to it, making for hundreds of different options. Tanks can even be given a custom paint job that is saved to the memory card.Open world Action Science fiction Sandbox
