Possibly the best JRPG ever made

I thought Persona was just your run of the mill, rip off of Final Fantasy cashcow until I actually played some games from the series. Boy, was I wrong. There was really nothing about this game for me to hate. I loved the gameplay because it was turn-based through a command window. The soundtrack was amazing as well. You'd think lyrics wouldn't be good in a game OST, but you'd be wrong. The graphics were excellent. For a PS2 game, the graphics were done very well. After a first playthrough, the game gets a little dull since you know the entire story, but there is some replay value with a New Game Plus. You get to keep all your Personas and Yen from the last playthrough. Personas are mythical beings which aid you and your allies in battle. You have to fight your ally's shadows before they can battle, though. The protagonist can change personas in battle, while your allies can only have one, or two, depending on if you evolve their personas or not, which you would have to do a social link with said ally for their persona to evolve. The social links provide backstory for your allies, and throughout the social link you gain items or battle boosts, such as them being able to take a hit for you in battle if you're close to death. If you can find this game anywhere, pick it up, it's pretty amazing. If you liked it, try the other games in the series, such as Persona 3 FES or Shin Megami Tensei IV. The Golden version of this game for PS Vita (probably the only reason to get a Vita at this point) is a much better version, so if you can afford a Vita for it, get it.
This Game is purely Great! The Graphics are pretty astounding for a PS2! Also the Gameplay never ends you build Social Links (Friendships) with tons of COMS also you goto school , and meet new people , fight demons , go into caves n explore , walk around town doing tasks , level up in varieties , also you ask questions and answer in school and anywhere else , its a great RPG i suggest getting tbjs i definetly suggest getting it if youre into RPG but im sure that you'll love it either way!

This game is awesome! Personally I'm a fan of all the SMT games to come out over the last 15 years or so. But this one is one of my favorites. Not as dark as Persona 3. I do miss the Evokers though. The kids in this one dont seem as emo as in 3 but there is still a creepiness about them. And dont get me started on the pedo-esque bear in tv land. The storyline is great and the dungeon crawling aspects seem a little more fluid than in previous entries. Don't expect a 7-10 hour quick run, this game requires some time vested. All in all its a great demonic JRPG and in my opinion a MUST HAVE for any PS2 owner. It's even worth buying a PS2 just to play this game.
