This is a hell of a package. I especially dug the single player VN component of the game, which basically plays out like more Persona 4. It evokes what's great about Persona 4 while also having enough great moments of its own such that it's not just a retread. Labryss, the new character, is introduced really well and her story is very compelling. It's also a really fun fighting game! Auto-combos are very nice, and even without them it's fun to mash my way through versus matches and arcade modes.

As a note, one looking through all of my reviews chronologically might wonder if they missed a Persona 4 review since I talk about loving it here. Thing is I didn't play Persona 4 because I never had a PS2 and they didn't sell it on PS3, I only watched a Lets Play of it called The Endurance Run on a site called Giant Bomb. I would, eventually, play Golden on PS Vita though.
