Thursday shorts: Persona 4 anime, Gearbox community day, Prototype 2

More teasing for the Persona 4 anime from Japan. Today is now officially a good day. Here’s some more stuff to go with it.

  • As mentioned, a new teaser for the anime of the PS2 RPG was released. It seems to show Chie, by the looks of it.
  • The ladies are big fans of Tales of shows and events, but only a handful are actually nuts for the games altogether, producer Makoto Yoshizumi has admitted in a new Iwata Asks.
  • Siliconera‘s gone up with a roundtable interview on all things Aksys. Expect plenty of BlazBlue happenings there.
  • A Prototype 2 interview’s now live on Games on Net.
  • RIFT’s been patched to version 1.3.
  • Gama‘s gone up with a piece for how games can help achieve peace. This is from a keynote at Games for Change in New York.
  • D’Toid‘s gone up with a report of happenings from Gearbox’s Community Day event in Texas. Aliens, Brothers in Arms and Duke were all there, but don’t expect mentions on Borderlands 2.
  • There’s some data on Ocarina of Time 3DS on the Nintendo Channel. Have no idea what that’s all about.
  • Madden NFL 12 has newly refined visuals, EA has said.
  • “Heroes of Newerth servers suffer ‘catastrophic hardware failure’” is Shack’s headline. Speaks for itself.

I really need to go back to Persona 4 again. Probably my favorite RPG on PS2. Love Chie, btw.

btw the new teaser is not about Chie, but Rise.
protip: too much titties to be Chie.

lol, I’ve written “chien” in the first comment…

All the Persona 4 teasers are being released according to the dates in-game. The recent teaser coincided to the in-game date when you see Rise’s Shadow for the first time.

We saw the previous characters the same way. Kanji was about a month ago.

@4 lol, you’re right!
I’ve checked trough the official strategy guide and it states that on June 22nd there’s the mandatory cutscene that announces Rise’s shadow!

This makes me think: will this anime come out on Christmas 2011… or else?
