    Only the American editions contained Plutonium I heard =)

    trying to poison us American's hahah

    but really, I wonder what was so wrong with these edition's ?? that is kind of crazy to have Dangerous "Elements" inside these edition's

    or do they mean Dangerous Sharp edges that could cut children ?, Elements like Plutonium ?

    or just some sharp corners that needed to be smoothed before shipping ??

    not sure what you mean by Elements , Periodic table elements ?? or just Elements that can be changed

    A really horrible game that is PS4 exclusive.  It should be banned for being such a POS.

    Wow that's quite a harsh opinion. 

    Personally I think Persona is a great series and I've enjoyed every one of the games so far, I pre ordered the take your heart edition at a gamestop, so I'm hoping my pre order comes in and doesn't get cancelled there.

    I never enjoyed any of the Persona games myself.  But I completely disagree with you.  There are lots of people out there that love this series.  I'm content knowing it's just not for me, but I'm happy for those that enjoy it.

    The kinder eggs that I see here in Rome have the toy in a shell and it's enclosed inside the shell. The shell is made out of plastic.The eggs are quite big I doubt any child can put the whole thing in their mouth.

    The Persona series is really good. The dialogue is surprisingly deep.

    I hope they sort this out quickly. An amazing RPG series worth of every penny. If they take too long to address this issue i'll just buy it from playasia.com

    Perhaps the games contained rational thinking and free thought? Not really permitted in the US these days.  ;)

    Who in the hell puts a small toy you can choke on in the middle of a candy that you put in your mouth and suck on? America also bans razor blades in candy. I wonder why? Doesn't most of the rest of the world get their razor blades by eating chocolates?
    The toys aren't actually embedded within the chocolate.

    Not sure what Kinder Eggs you've had, but in the UK the chocolate clearly surrounds a plastic egg which then contains the toy.   Not quite the same thing as a razor blade, but I'm happy the ban is in place to protect you.

    Ridiculous!!!!!   However, I hear that much of Europe's population crisis is due to the legions of kids dying from Kinder Eggs!!!

    Actually, any candy product that has a non-food item embedded in it is banned here. It's an old pre-WWII era law.

    Cannot wait for this game. Hope it lives up to the insane but poignant 4.

    Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.

    It sounds like we're missing out on a lot what with the chocolate and the bauble in the middle. Don't worry we have Twinkies and Cracker Jacks. There's always a way to get around selling harmful food to people.
    I think Coca-Cola has done much more harm to the world and the children.

    Here in Australia most razor blades are sold wrapped in chocolate that you have to lick off. And our Kinder Surprises often contain poisonous spiders instead of toys, to weed out the less nimble kiddies.

    Do you need to navigate through a floor covered in highly venomous snakes as well to even buy it? :awesome:

    Played through the Japanese version of this already. The story is pretty weird as a whole; much more so than 3 or 4 in my opinion. Though some of the Japanese used was far too advanced for me to read (but I got the gist of the majority of it). Without any spoilers, you basically start at the middle of the game and then start to remember how you got to the point you're in through flashbacks and going through the dates. With the occasional moving back and forth.
    Due to frequent travel in my youth, English isn't something I consider my primary language (and thus I obtained quirky ways of writing).  German and French were always easier for me despite my family being U.S. citizens for over a century.  Spanish I learned as a requirement in school, Japanese and Korean I acquired for my youthful desire of anime and gaming (and also work now).  I only debate in English to help me work with it (and limit things).  In addition, I'm not smart enough to remain fluent in everything and typically need exposure to get in the groove of things again if I haven't heard it in a while.  If you understand Mandarin, I know a little, but it has actually been a challenge and could use some help.

    Also, I thoroughly enjoy debates and have accounts on over a dozen sites for this.  If you wish to engage in such, please put effort in a post and provide sources -- I will then do the same with what I already wrote (if I didn't) as well as with my responses to your own.  Expanding my information on a subject makes my stance either change or strengthen the next time I speak of it or write a thesis.  Allow me to thank you sincerely for your time.
