What exactly is Shin Megami Tensei, or Persona? It's simply an RPG game where you control various Personas to achieve victories in various dungeons. I don't know what the premise or overview is in the first three games, but I know for a fact that you can control various amounts of Personas from fusing them or beating up enemies.

Persona 4 is easily the best Persona in the series, and not only that, probably one of the best RPGs on the PS2 if you're able to play mature games. It covers various (slightly disturbing?) themes and has a random dungeon system. The dungeons themselves range from a castle to even a strip-club. Just think of the bosses... :naughty:

There's also a Social Link System which works similarly to a Dating Sim in some cases. The more you befriend characters, the more Personas you can make with power, and a bonus can be granted too. :3

Can't get any better screenshot though...Unless this counts:



You can discuss other Persona games here...And you can discuss the dirty Personas if you must. O.o

What's osu!? It's a rhythm game. Thought I should have a signature with a working rank. ;P It's now clickable!

Excuse me...?

Sorry, I don't understand the R> ss part of it. Pardon me for living under a rock of Internet language. :V:

On a side-note, I updated the topic a bit. Just another screenshot really...nothing much. :/

There's barely any screenshots of this game due to the newness of the game...2008...So I just have a Youtube video of it. It may cause Spoilers...Though I doubt it.

A snake. A snake promoting sex.

There's a reason why this game is rated M.

QuotePixilated blood spray is briefly depicted during battles, and colored bloodstains stain some walls and floors. Some female monsters (female Persona) are depicted with their breasts exposed, while other monsters have phallic-shaped heads and torsos. Other female Personas (e.g., "Succubus") have sexual characteristics that are described in text: "They visit sleeping men and have sexual intercourse with them." Story elements also make references to alcohol, including a long scene in which the main characters hang out in a club and play 'drinking games.' Although alcohol is never consumed, the characters display the telltale signs of intoxication: slurred speech, staggered walking, and red faces. Profanity (e.g., sh*t, a*shole) can be heard in the dialogue.

QuoteAlcohol Reference, Animated Blood, Language, Partial Nudity, Sexual Themes, Violence


There's worse. You don't want to see men in thongs or a gay guy really... o.o;

Pixilated blood and bloodstains... Whoever wrote this needs to play some Castlevania.

Nothing Fan-Fiction hasn't seen five spajillion times before (and ten spajillion times worse)... AND Castlevania.

You know, real life would be Rated AO?

OK, they lost me here. Although they don't drink, they're drunk? WTF?

QuoteProfanity (e.g., sh*t, a*shole) can be heard in the dialogue.

Again, People swear in real life. I don't like it that much, but there's not a whole lot you can do about it. It's a part of the English Language.
Stuff I've made:




"Never think you're perfect or else you'll stop improving yourself."

"Some people say the glass is half full... some half empty... I just wanna know who's been drinking my beer."

That's written on the ESRB site. There's plenty of other reasons it's gay, but remember that the ESRB is very inexperienced about it.

Let's meet a few of the Persona Monsters.

Actually, what they mean there is the act of drinking has never been directly seen. You just see drunk people and they say he's been drinking. Though alcohol is the least of my concerns...

Seriously, two of the game's heroes have two themes to cover, Sexual Orientation and Sex Symbolism. o.o;

It's not exactly Teen but it's almost Borderline M, you know?

Like how 3 has lots of blue, Persona 4 has lots of yellow.  :^_^':

It's opinion really, but at first it was really...yellow indeed. After a while I got used to it, and it's a great theme. They have lots of custom interfaces besides the battle one, and it's supposed to portray yourself inside the TV...

And that's the screenshot I see the most of that game. -_-;
