After playing an incredibly brief 340 hand session in which I profited a little more than $1/hand, I set out to finish Persona 3 Portable tonight. I had completed almost all the optional content so the last battles were trivial. Despite knowing exactly what would happen and the portable version lacking anime cutscenes which definitely add some storytelling punch, the ending still hits like a truck. Truly, the game does an incredible job with the characters having to come to terms with their own mortality. It most definitely is deserving of being hailed as the best game of the past decade. If you even remotely enjoy any sort of role playing game or just a great story and haven't played some version of Persona 3, you owe it to yourself to remedy this! My one real complaint about the PS2 version was that the game felt a little too long, but the PSP version was just the right length even with my exploration of optional content. It is too bad the cutscenes had to be removed though.
Tomorrow I'll be stopping by Electronics Boutique to pick up a PSP3000 system which with a cable accessory will allow me to play PSP games on my TV. I'm also planning on grabbing Madden 11 and jumping right in to football fanaticism a little early this year. Looking forward to the start of the NFL season and my fantasy football endeavors!
