I had no idea before I bought Soul Hackers that it was going to be a remake of an older game, a much older game, but hey I'm loving it, except the part where I got stuck on Snappy (that evil ****!)... anyhow, this game has me totally pumped for Shin Megami Tensei 4, a modern SMT game made for just the 3DS, coming out in just a couple months. Anyhow, trailer if you haven't seen it already, CLICK HERE. The art and game design looks great. I've read it's supposed to be over 50 hours long. I've read the game will be over 50 hours long. The choices gamers make in the game will have consequences in both the character and the game's world. It will feature fully voice dialog. Fusing demons is said to be made much simpler. It comes out in Japan later this may, hope to hear good things about it then. Anybody else excited for this? Or heard any good news about what to expect from it?

I've been excited for SMT4 the moment it was announced that the 3DS would have a new SMT game. SMT is my favorite franchise, so I'm naturally stoked for it. The limited edition is going to be nice.

Persona 4 is probably my favorite game ever, but I'm hoping SMT4 is even better than that. It's gonna be awesome regardless.

Yep. My favorite series, probably tied with Fire Emblem. Can't wait, good thing Soul Hackers is here to tide my anticipation.

I've never played a SMT game before. Would someone care to enlighten me? Is it similar to any other series'?

So far this year it is my most anticipated game out of every single platform. Handheld and console. Good thing we won't have to wait so long for it either!

SMTIV is the continuation of the core SMT games where you are a survivor in a post-apocalyptic world :o.

I am excited for the game ever since it was annouced like some users have said. I preordered it from Amazon as GameStop doesn't ship where I live and apparently you get this DLC outfit when you preorder from Amazon:

I am also impressed with all the other tidbits we get: a strategy & design book, a Music Collection CD, and Slipcase. So yeah thanks Atlus :o :P

Yes, but on the other hand I might get burned out on SMT by then. I just finished Persona 4, now I'm finishing Strange Journey, and I haven't even started Soul Hackers.

That's better looking DLC than the outfit GameStop gives you, but I'm eyeing their limited edition which is a first since I never do... http://www.gamestop.com/nintendo-3ds/games/shin-megami-tensei-iv-limited-edition-box-set/108909 ...strangely they don't have a listing for a $40 version which is weird, I wonder if the price is a mistake, Persona 3 when I got it wasn't a limited edition in just came with an art book and soundtrack, and Persona 4 came with a soundtrack, and Soul Hackers came with a soundtrack with the pre-order copies, that was $40 though, this is $50 and if this is the only version they're selling for pre-order I wonder if it should be $40 instead, as an incentive for pre-ordering, I won't like it if Atlus goes down this road of pricey limited editions, perks should be used as incentives for early adopters ugh, maybe it's not a mistake, amazon lists it as $50 too, oh well I guess if there's any game I'd do this for it'd be this one

The first run of SMT4 will be the limited edition, hence the 50 dollar price point. The limited edition is the same everywhere, but obviously the DLC is different. I'm sure once the limited editions are done the game alone will cost 40 bucks.

The main Shin Megami Tensei games are a lot darker and more mature. Fantastic rpgs I'm getting both the digital and physical copy for the bonuses.

Persona has gotten less dark. Persona 3 was darker than 4 and 2 was darker than 3.

The only SMT game I've played is Persona 4, which I loved. I'm pretty hyped.

Yeah Nocturne was a fantastic game. Kinda bummed that it will lose its original Japanese dub(main girl was voiced by an actress I like), I can get by.

Well I was referring to Megaten main series as being darker and mature.

You get the huge box, 200 page strategy guide/ art book, soundtrack, and the highly anticipated game for $50, which is a steal.
