Persona 4 Golden
Ask any Vita owner what game they should get if they decide to purchase the console and, without even a moment’s hesitation, the answer should always be Persona 4 Golden. The original PS2 release was such a huge hit among JRPG fans because of the well-written and memorable cast of characters, the intriguing murder mystery plot, and the engaging combat and gameplay systems. Persona 4 Golden brings all of that goodness to Sony’s handheld, and adds a significant amount of new content and gameplay tweaks to improve the experience.
From start to finish, P4G’s story is an absolute delight. Aside from the slightly slow prologue, it’s utterly gripping. The fantastic voice work (which was redone for the Vita port, by the way) helps bring the characters to life, and the core loop of dungeon-crawling and spending time with friends is so compelling it’s hard to put the game down. Also, the new opening song and movie for the remaster are dope.
