Atlus to Bring Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 2: Innocent Sin for PSP to North America - PlayStation Portable News at IGN

Thank god, now I can finally play a legal copy of the game in all of its bizarro, Mayan alien nazi-reviving, dream eating clown glory.

For those who don't know, this is the first half of Persona 2 with Eternal Punishment being the second half. To date, this is the only main numbered Persona game to not reach the States.

For those who were turned off by Persona 1, P2 features a radically different combat system that is probably closer to a cross between Chrono Trigger's Dual/Triple techs and Breath of Fire IV's magic combo system. You create stronger attacks by combining basic Persona skills but turn order also dictates if the move will work.

The game also introduces the rumor system, in which characters can change the world and unlock shops and dungeons by spreading strange and wondrous rumors. It will make more sense when you play the game.

Oh, yay, another way to get rid of a few thousand hours of my life. Stupid Atlus and their huge game content.

After becoming addicted to P3, looks like I'll be getting P1 and waiting for this then!

I played the second part of P2 for a couple of hours, and it was pretty fun. I don't like it as much as P3 and P4, but I'm looking forward to this. I'm more excited about Catherine though!
