UNTRUE! A Japanese, Atlus-published game that was out in Japan that day (or rather, on June 24th, which would be June 23rd in America) and just happened to be the first installment of the sequel toPersona: Revelations,Persona 2:Innocent Sin. It also just so happens that aPlayStation Portable remake ofPersona 2: Innocent Sinrecently hit the shelves in Glorious Nippon. Related? Probably. And quite welcome, as I will be playingInnocent Sinfor the first time should it hit stateside.
It’s a high-quality tease, for sure (a hell of a lot more interesting than the slew of trailers Activision threw out forModern Warfare III), but in retrospect, a foregone conclusion. Ever sinceShin Megami Tenseibecame a franchise that matters in North America (no small thanks to thePersonaseries), I’ve yet to see Atlus USA pass on publishing an Atlus title that wasn’t some kind of strange cellphone RPG.
