    Persona 3 Portable stripped Persona 3 down to its bare essentials just to get the game running on the PSP. Playing that same game on a home console without any significant changes, even at a budget price, feels incredibly underwhelming, especially with Persona 4 Golden releasing alongside it. Yes, the skeleton of Persona 3 is still there. The problem is that there's hardly any meat on its bones. When you pair that with the fact that there still isn't a single definitive edition of Persona 3 on any platform 17 years after its release, it feels like Atlus is neglecting one of its most beloved games.

    It was my first time playing this game and It was enjoyable, I've heard that people disliked that they remastered this version instead of FESIt was my first time playing this game and It was enjoyable, I've heard that people disliked that they remastered this version instead of FES but for me it's still a great game, bad points are that it is very repetitive, the tartarus is way too long, and the missing cutscenes that make important scenes not feel that important.
