Shin Megami Tensei

Amazon is running a special promotion where you can purchase Persona 4 for $26.

Aeria Games has released an updated client of Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine Online, the Cave’s first MMO originally released in Japan in Q1 2007. Set in a fictional post-apocalyptic Tokyo, survivors attempt to restore the city by defeating demons and solving puzzles. Each player acts as a Devil Buster. Success relies on forming an alliance with demons or slaying them. For more information visit http://megaten.aeriagames.com/

Atlus announced that Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor will be released on June 23 for Nintendo DS! The game will cost $29.99. The game is described as a RPG/SRPG hybrid.

More information and screenshots will be posted on website soon so check back later this week.

Atlus U.S.A., Inc. announced that there will in fact be no enhanced or expanded version of Persona 4 released, as was the case with the game’s predecessor, Persona 3.

“We are today able to announce that at no point in the future will we announce the release of a “FES” version of Persona 4,” said Tim Pivnicny, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “The very finest, most definitive version of Persona 4 will be the one released on December 9, 2008.”

This groundbreaking preemptive anti-announcement puts to rest concerns among many Atlus devotees that an improved version would be announced and released shortly following the release of Persona 4.

Persona 4 released for the PS2 on December 9, 2008. Each and every copy of the game will include Side A of the Persona 4 soundtrack for free, which features the work of famed composer Shoji Meguro. Fans who pre-order from select retailers will also receive Persona 4: Visual Data, a 100-page, full-color art book loaded with designs from master artist Shigenori Soejima (at GameStop, Amazon.com, EB Games (Canada), Game Crazy, and other fine retailers, while supplies last).

In addition, hardcore fans can pick up the Persona 4 Social Link Expansion Pack (exclusively at Amazon.com), a bundle of rare North American-exclusive goodies unavailable anywhere else, like the Teddie plushie, 2009 Calendar, Side B disc of the P4 soundtrack, and more!
