When I started my run-through of doing a GTA game a year I did not expect to like this game as much as I would have (let alone 100% it). This game is one of the darker GTA games and does it many favors because of the mature style of its story where the humor is there and when it hits and does not overstay it for the serious movements in the story.

The gameplay for this took on a realistic style that has the cars and bikes having a bit of weight to it, and this change is good and bad. Cars handle well, but bikes at times felt like I had to fight with the bike, especially for doing one of the things 100%. Combat is very easy at times with the inclusion of auto aim but that comes with its own problem with auto aim because that has its own issues. Auto-aim only aims at one of its targets and it is hard to switch between targets when it is on. The other issue with combat is when most enemies take cover with auto-aim on it just a waiting game but the game can be easy at times so that did balance it out.

As for music in this game I will be honest since I played the pc port I put in my own music that I got from Spotify. Even if I were not playing the pc port and could not put the music in I would honestly say most of the music in this game does not appeal to me, that is why I chose to have my own music implemented.

As for the PC port itself, it is the version I have to recommend minus the big performance issues it has. This pc Pitt I’d known to be a buggy mess the big reason I played this version is mainly for the reason that the bc version on Xbox series x are locked at 60 which makes this game unbeatable due to a glitch in the final mission of the game which luckily the settings on the pc can fix that. Luckily too like I said earlier the PC version you are able to add the music that you want to listen to in the game so that is a plus.

Overall though GTA 4 is worth a play through, and wish that it was easier to play on Middleton consoles except for the 60 fps bug on the BC version. 100% was fun to do, and even though I’m not done with the GTA 4 universe because of the 2 episodes, this at least satisfied me a lot.

When Atlus announced this last year to bring back Persona 3 to the modern generation. I was happy that they did pick this version mainly due to being able to play the female protagonist. I have seen the male side to this game but I will probably not play that side myself due to Reload coming out next year so a lot of my views are playing from the female route (which is one of the reasons to play this version).

First off I want to address the music which is always A+ for these games. With this game, though both characters have their own soundtrack, and all of it is worth listening to because persona soundtracks are addicting to listen to. The other thing to praise is the story, even though this is all in a vn form (due to this being originally for PSP) this is one of the better stories out of the 3 modern personas. Also, all the SL were well done.

The only con I give this game is combat can be easy (and even Tartuas is a slog). In this version, we were given the choice to control the party members so this game is not very balanced to that (because FES had uncontrollable members). Especially with sliders (which the new releases of this and P4G had) made it so that this game if known right then it could be very easy. And then there was the elephant in the room the main dungeon in the game was such a slog that around 100+ hours of gameplay it just got tiring, and every time I went into it I had to groan by just how much time I was in there for. The main dungeon is very podcast time or audiobook time (at least it was worth it due to the music not getting too boring).

Overall though Persona 3 Portable is worth it for the female route that sadly won't be in the remake coming next year, and with this on-game pass this is hard not to recommend to try. Rating from me 7/10
