Press Turn is indeed the Nocturne/DDS combat system. And yeah, this is the first mainline SMT since Nocturne (which, remember, is SMT3). I don't know either, I was convinced that Strange Journey was SMT4 before I heard the news.

The reason Strange Journey isn't SMT4 is because it isn't set in Japan. That's really it. Unless I was lied to I guess.

Edit: Beaten.

DS2 anime sounds good to me, though I would've preferred the first game. I think it'd be better if the MC is more like Yu. He doesn't talk a whole lot, but when he decides to be "on", he completely steals the scene.

Seiji Kishi, who directed the Persona 4 anime, is also doing this one. So there's hope we'll see the second coming of Yu.

So Devil Survivor 2 is getting an anime adaptation.

My only thought is I wonder if they'll make the protagonist as insane as the game lets you.

Oh man, this can either be super good or total crap. Though, knowing Atlus it's likely to be the latter, but hey, at least they're adapting a GOOD game this time, so i'm hyped as heck. Hopefully they manage to make the MC autistic enough. And make Jungo + Yamato awesome enough. Oh man, so rad.

This is a little awkward for me because I own DS2 and a 3DS but haven't had a chance to play DS2 yet. At least with DS1:Overclocked I could have put it aside because I had already beaten the original to hell and back.

Yeah, an anime for DS2 is kind of like releasing a tabletop miniature game for Warcraft or Starcraft. It just feels redundant. DS3 would be nice, though- I'd prefer that to DS2:O. A full new game on the 3DS would be great.

I really hope the "Meow" option is due to the Atlus translation team being Super Trooper fans.

Soul Hackers is one of the Devil Summoner games before Raidou, but it plays nothing like Raidou.

Anyways, Atlus USA, thank you for getting Soul Hackers, now if you could please give me EP that would be great.

Atlus and Nintendo are not really the same kind of company. If Atlus isn't putting out a Persona game it's probably for good reason. (Even if that reason is just "The PSP is dead and P2E1 sold pretty bad.")

It's a remake of the ps1 devil summoner game. Think classic SMT with first person dungeons, demon summoning, and having to have MAG to keep demons with you.
