Delayed Persona 3 Hits Shelves Tomorrow... Hopefully
After waiting for Persona 3 for almost a year, planning to get it in July and then at the very last minute being told that it was being delayed for a couple weeks, the release of Persona 3 is at last upon us. Allegedly it will hit shelves tomorrow, but some video game stores don't put shipments up until the day after so you might have to wait until Wednesday, the 15th.
Sure, I should probably save my money for food or rent, but I'll be first in line tomorrow as soon as I get the call that my preordered game is in stock. The reason for the delay was supposedly the included deluxe art book and some binding issue, which, if the gods are willing, should have been resolved. And hey, the art is pretty damn good, so it's a welcome addition, even if it is the reason for the delay (which I somehow doubt).
Get your demon-killing/suicidal/gun-toting teenage self prepared, because your adventure in the Underworld is starting very soon.

I just wanna date the boys in this game! Oh, and obtaining Shiva's not bad either.
Holy freaking GOD I cannot wait to play this game.
No store puts shipments up a day later. They put them up when they get them in which is (usually) the day after the SHIPPING DATE which is today, the 14th. For most video games the release date is also the shipping date unless it's a really huge title which are shipped up to a week earlier so every store has them on hand for the release date.
And you can doubt all you want but the sole reason for the delay was always the binding on the art books. It wasn't up to snuff and Atlus decided to reprint them rather then risking destroying the box by shipping it without them.
We should be thanking them for their commitment to quality rather then dropping half assed suggestions about some cover up.
