Persona fans or even modern gamers?

For those few topics that fall outside the world of Turbo Grafx.

Persona fans or even modern gamers?

Sup guys?
I'm not sure how many of you play modern games, but being as this is the only gaming community I bother to spend time in, I figured I'd ask just in case. Apparently, Sega's acquisition of my favorite game franchise (Shin Megami Tensei: Persona) has not in fact, effected them as bad as I expected. When I found out Sega purchased Atlus (i've seen the Atlus logo on a couple of turbo games, so it's pseudo-relevant) I was heartbroken (ok, I don't have a heart, but still). After 5 years of waiting, Atlus finally announced a sequel to Persona 4, as well as about 7 other new releases.

I'm so excited about a few of these projects that I actually want to discuss them, so I had to ask, does anybody else enjoy the Persona series? If you don't know, Persona is a jrpg that typically revolves around Japanese high school students who summon various deities to fight for them in turn based combat. It sounds really cheesy, and I guess in some ways it is, but they're extremely fun. They've become rather successful since the release of (my favorite) Persona 3 which has a truly tragic and realistic ending (for an anime style video game), the likes of which I've seen in only a handful of other games.

Anyway, is anyone else excited about this? Is anyone excited about any modern games at all?
