Persona 4 Golden Review Roundup

Persona 4: Golden is a remake of Persona 4 for the Playstation Vita handheld console. The game has expanded from the original Playstation 2 release, adding new features and story elements to the game. A new character, Marie, has been added into the story. Additional Personas, character outfits, and new Social Links have been included. The game supports the wireless networking features of the Vita, and allows for players to call for help to other players in dungeon battles.

The game is out and the verdict is in! Persona 4 Golden vastly improves the already great formula of Persona 4, and is a worthy addition to any Vita collection. To those who have picked the game up, what are your thoughts? Is the remake all that it's cracked up to be?

5/5

"Persona 4 is one of Atlus's most successful titles to date, and this PlayStation Vita port of the PlayStation 2 original will provide even more people the opportunity to experience it. However, what may come as a shock is that Persona 4 Golden is not only a great port, but it's actually a better game."

Destructoid

10/10

"For gamers curious about the franchise and looking for a way in, Persona 4 Golden is easily the best place to start, as it's the best looking and playing Persona game yet. And if you don't have a Vita yet, this is probably the best reason yet to get one."

Gaming Nexus

9.8/10

"Persona 4 Golden has easily justified the purchase of the Vita. It may be a rerelease of a game from 2008, but with the amount of additional content thrown in, it feels like a fresh new game."

GamesRadar

4.5/5

"Persona 4 Golden sports a phenomenal amount of content packed into a single card. One of the PlayStation 2's greatest role-playing games of all time graces the Vita with slick, vivid aesthetic improvements, loads of additional areas to explore, and tons of reasons to come back even if you've beaten the game into the ground."

9/10

"Persona 4 Golden is a fantastic modernized expansion of a brilliant RPG that many will have missed simply because it released out of sync with its original console generation."

Game Informer

8.5/10

"Persona 4 Golden's greatest strength is that everything fits together seamlessly, from the connected battle and social aspects to the fresh changes. Newcomers are sure to find plenty to love, while series veterans can revisit fond memories and experience new content. This game still remains one of the best RPG to date; don't miss out on your second chance to experience."
