I liked 3 alone, but a partner is definitely good to have.

The Contact Beam breaks the game, though. Me and my friend were making a large profit on ammo using it.

I just remembered that in Dead Space 2 they had Isaac talk and he had some epic action movie lines. It's fun, but it moves further away from the horror stuff.

isaac talking owns

in 2 he's just kind of angry and disoriented and upset

in 3 he's just pissed off and tired of it so when people try to freak out he's like "Okay, stay away from vents, cut off their limbs" and hangs up

at one point instead of giving a telekinesis tutorial during an area where you're probably low on ammo he whips out the video from the dead guy in 2 and lets it play for his teammates

i like a lot of things about dead space but 3 is written really badly but it has some cool setpieces

carver. let's get into this giant drill's track, and shoot it until it starts, and have a necromorph mosh pit in its path

floating in space is also really good in single player but if you're playing multiplayer and you can see the other person it's hilariously awkward

there's a bunch of really cool design stuff i could sperg about for a long time

i think the actual creepiest thing in the game is the dudes who ate necromorphs who are locked in a freezer who are the replacement for the feral kids from 2, and they're still alive + thinking but completely insane and they've been that way since stuff hosed up on that planet. you can hear them screaming to be let out by a dude in an audiolog and they just sound like really angry insane people

2 has the most cool new necromorphs, 3 tends to rely on the new tomahawk dudes a lot, and older designs like the babydog tentacle thing and the tank and the spitty guy

all 3 games have some cool guns and all three have a few that are clearly The Best and contact beam/plasma cutter are always in that category

the best thing is when the old man comes in and says he desperately needs metal stuff and he'll be back because you can buy vending machines and sell them to him at a crazy markup

I didn't know you could do that with vending machines...can you put the vending machines INSIDE a vending machine?

you could when i played it but it got patched out unfortunately, i dont see anything wrong with nested vending machines

Does Persona 2 hold up well because both parts are on PSN and I kind of want to get it on my Vita.

They run a bit slow but the characters own. There's a guy in one of them that fights using coins he flicks REALLY HARD.

the concept of rumors becoming reality also owns a lot

persona 2 has the greatest method of convincing a demon in a SMT game whatsoever

i can't remember the character combo but everyone sits down and gets drunk with the demon to befriend it

Thank you. I shall stay far away and just use the romhack that fixes a few of the bigger errors if I want to play it again.

U e MoV T Cave is cool

i would want one that fixed all the glitches that harmed the game without fixing goofy stuff like that and 3y kingdom

It's really hard to describe Persona without sounding like a huge idiot, just play it.

I've heard no, but I haven't personally played it.
