| Button mashing mayhem! Persona 4 PS3 review |
Who is Persona 4 Arena Ultimax designed for? Is it for fans of the Persona series and its brand of quirky characters, dense narrative, gruelling yet rewarding battle system and dating sim mechanics?
Or is it for fans of hardcore fighting games, those that reward endless hours mastering precise button combinations, repeated over and over until your fingers are bloody stumps of satisfaction from pulling off that finishing move? The answer is, of course, both and can even be extended to general fans of gaming, although the aforementioned groups will get the biggest kick out of it. Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is billed as a sequel/update to the unexpectedly successful Persona 4 Arena, although the update label is doing it a disservice.
