Atlus will probably remake Persona 1 and 2 one day, according to a new interview with series producer Kazuhisa Wada conducted by Rock Paper Shotgun.

We have to admit we’re surprised that it took Odin: Valhalla Rising, a mobile MMORPG that has a whole Nordic myth aesthetic, this long to add a class that wields thunder, lightning, and hammers. But hey, better late than never because the game does indeed offer that option with the recent release of the Thunderbringer class. […]

The fidelity of Grand Theft Auto 6's world makes random violence look considerably less silly than it did when the characters had boxy claws for hands, but Rockstar isn't stopping players from doing what they want in Vice City and its environs.We know that because we've seen the GTA 6 leaker shoot up a nudist party, murder the residents of a homeless encampment, and beat a delivery driver to death—quite a contrast
