Some Other Podcast, Episode 52: 1247

We’re pretty sure that we will be hearing Phelps’s badge number in our sleep for a very, very long time to come.  Was it worth it to play through L.A. Noire?  We think so.

Find out what else we think about games in general (and a bit about E3 specifically, but we promise it’s not too much), and be prepared for the return of PERSONA!  Yes, it’s that time again- that magical time of year when a young woman’s fancy turns to thoughts of shooting yourself in the head with an Evoker to unleash the mystical powers therein.  Odds are good that this will be a theme… again.

Fair warning: we do throw in some spoilery stuff about L.A. Noire in this episode, and I know a lot of people haven’t actually finished yet, so I actually bothered to get the timestamps from Elaine if you would like to skip story discussions!  Skip from 2:30 to 9:35 if you’re so inclined.  You’re welcome.

    Yes, the male battle music in P3P is “Mass Destruction”. Also, male 1st semester school music ftw. On my second playthrough as the girl. Why are all new chicks more interesting?

      Ok it’s honestly really awesome that they did that. It essentially keeps the Persona 3 experience exactly the same if you play as Male MC (aside from the much better battle system) and it really makes the game feel fresh to a veteran if they play as the Female MC. Another big +1 for Atlus.

    You mentioned that the Wii U logo bugged you, but you couldn’t quite put your finger on why. Allow me:

    What did you do to your outro music? Did you slow it down? I feel like I want to make it go faster.

  4. David says:

    The outro is “Army Girl” and can be found at sf2.ocremix.org
    It’s a loungy version of Cammy Whites Theme.

    at the risk of quoting your outtakes to you… if you’re deafened by Yarrr, is that… Yarr’s revenge?
