So in that case, is it better to just ignore it on my first run and try on my second run? Also, what about the fights for Margaret? I remember seeing those sometime when I first played this on the PSP but I don't remember what I did to unlock them.

You can fight both of the extra bosses on your first run in P3P. Fighting Margaret requires you to finish all of her bonus challenges first.

Seems like the Persona 4 Solid Gold Premium Edition craziness is not stopping...

People are selling their preorders on Amazon for $200, and on ebay there are completed listings where the preorders were sold for $149, $109, and $99.

The game's still available at Gamestop at http://www.gamestop.com/ps-vita/games/persona-4-golden-solid-gold-premium-edition/104551 for $69.99 (plus tax and shipping).

I discovered that if you use the code SAVER in the cart right before checkout, you get free Value Shipping (5-10 business days for transit & 2 business days for processing) so I ended up canceling my previous order and making a new one for the free shipping bonus. I thought I'd post this information for you guys!

I was just coming here to post that.

I'm amazed Amazon even let them mention E-bay in their own ad. I bought it for $35 right when it came out and I am perfectly happy with the decision. Does this mean they're running out of copies or that they're doing a fire sale?

Since Amazon let me put 999 copies in my cart, I'm assuming it's a fire sale.

Yeah, I'm a bit concerned about that too. Though Atlus's Facebook page said that they had stopped taking preorders in the physical Gamestop stores, but not online. Sometimes Gamestop is the only place where you can get preorder bonuses, and my suspicion is that they pay well for exclusivity. They just might have had more copies paid for in reserve, or maybe most online customers would rather order from Amazon first, as Amazon offer free shipping and no tax for non-California states.

It's a megaten. I could sell my Devil Summoner 1 on ebay to make enough to buy a couple more copies from Gamestop. Which you in theory could loop for as often as your local Gamestop is willing to special order them from out of state.

There's story mode from P4A. If you can find the videos of story mode you can get a lot of voice samples, but Atlus takes them down as they find them.

Edit: Trinity Soul was really strange, they only had two episodes on crunchyroll but it wasn't interesting enough for me to go out and watch the rest.

Sweet, this VA sounds pretty decent. Do we know if this is the same person for The Golden? Gonna look up Teddie's now.

E: Did Teddie's voice change for P4A? In the few clips I can find, he sounds REALLY close to the original.

I'm assuming Sam Riegel is doing Teddie in P4G as well, yes. If what I've been told is true then Dave Wittenburg was unionized recently, so that's more than likely why he didn't reprise Teddie. I have to also say, Erin Fitzgerald as Chie is very disappointing, I expected a more tomboyish voice from her, not "generic anime female voice" like she was portrayed with in P4A.

In other news, if you needed more of a reason to care about the dub of the P4 the Animation, Mary Elizabeth McGlynn voices Naoto in it and she's the best Naoto voice in my opinion even though she still sounds very feminine.

What's the recommended level to fight Nyx on hard mode? My current party is:

FemC 64
Yukari 63
Akihiko 63
Mitsuru 62

I'm about to unlock the Monad- I managed to Thunder Reign the Reaper down to about 1 pixel worth of health, and then got wiped my a Mamudoon :( Still, I can definitely beat him. I figured I'd at least get to the mid 70s so my party gets all of their skills- is that about right? Or will I be pretty over leveled by then? My main Persona is a level 63 Loki with all 4 Dyne spells, Mind Charge, and Megidola.

Mid 60s is definitely adequate to end the game with. Mid 70s is where the final battle begins to get too easy, anything past that is just overkill unless you're aiming for the hidden superbosses.

Armageddon is definitely not necessary, unless you're really lazy or just want to see what the attack looks like (it's not that impressive). If you do go that route, save it for the final Arcana of the boss. You'll know.

Preview of P4G with the English version. They talk over it, but you can see the differences.

Edit: Just getting a look at the dungeons and added features makes me want this more. The clarity is crazy good and Yukiko's castle isn't as red.

They changed it up quite a bit. You get a good dose of Chie and Teddie in this clip. They also changed the shadow's voices.
