Advantages: Great battle system, great plot, Social links are interesting Disadvantages: Can be difficult, very long game
change from P3 is the ability to control the other members of your party.
The social aspect is unique to the Persona RPGs and is often compared to japanese visual novels. These are subplots where the main character interacts with other NPCs and learns about their issues in life. This sounds mundane but it is also a large portion of the game. It is also vital to increase the strength of the social links, as it strengthens the power of fused persona. In fairness to Altus however, they have managed to create an interesting subplot with each of the social links, which makes it feel like less of a grind and gives party members and minor characters some personality.
At the reduced RRP of £19.99, this game represents fantastic value for money. It'll last most people at least 60 hours, if not 100+. Althought the replayability may be low ...
Advantages: Nice ride, reasonable pricetag Disadvantages: suspensions a touch soft
The £250 price tag means you can't expect an incredible bike, but giant do very well with the money, providing a good set of equipment for a first bike.
The Suntour M7600 forks give about 3 inchs of travel they are slightly soft but rarely bottom out. The gears are a fifteen gear set, with shimano altus rear mech and rapid fire ez shifters, which are cool. The brakes are v-brakes which take a little getting used to, but will definitly stop you! The frame comes in anything from 14" to 21.5" which means you can choose the right size for you.
The overall ride is pretty smooth, the control is good, the braking is excellent without being too fine. It's the kind of bike that lets you belt up and down hills, but can also be used safely on the road.
In conclusion a great bike for a starter, with a reasonable equipment range and a nice ...
