Persona Team and Arc System Works making a Persona Fighting Game. No, seriously!

So this is happening somehow.

Arc System Works track record on licensed fighting games is... I'm not gonna say BAD, because as broken and messed up as it is, Hokuto No Ken is a lot of fun. And a Persona fighting game can't be any worse than any other given anime fighter. Rumblefish and Fate/Unlimited Codes for example.

It comes out in arcades next year and releases on 360 and PS3 that same summer, being summer 2012. Will it release here in the states? Maybe as a downloadable title, but since it's unlikely to be region locked on PS3, I guess it really doesn't matter. Yet another fighting game import.

Oh yeah, there's a Vita version of Persona 4, and Persona 5 will happen sometime. Like they needed to tell us that.

ASW is at least capable of making great fighting games, even if they don't always deliver.
GGXX and BB are both solid series, and Chaos Code looks cool, so you never know.

Oh man I can't wait to shoot myself in the head and summon a giant schlong to pound my enemies with!

This is bear-y interesting! Here's hoping it's good!

I wonder what they will add to the portable version of P4... I don't want a reason to buy PSVita. Also, YAY PERSONA 5
