Rake out your PS2 next month - a game that doesn't involve singling or answering pointless trivia questions is coming out and it's bloody good.
Persona 3 from Koei was very well received in the US, where it recently went on sale, and it'll be hitting UK stores on February 29.
As part of the Shin Megami Tensei series, Persona 3 is set in a Japanese school, with a unique time mechanic that sees you socialise with students and make friends during the day, almost like a life sim, then battle demons that emerge at night.
The UK Official PlayStation Magazine gave it a 10-out-of-10 score, Koei is keen to boast, so it's definitely a reason to put the PS3 to one side for a few weeks (unless you have a full-fat 60GB console that'll play your PS2 games as well).
Check out these screens for a taste of the action within.
