Topic: Dragon Quest 9 or Persona 3 Portable

I've been really hyped about DQ9 and Persona 3, but when it comes down to it I just don't have the money to buy both games right now. Which would you recommend if I can only buy one right now (I will buy both when I have the cash)?

While a lot of it will depend on your personal preferences, I'd personally go with Dragon Quest 9. But I'd get both when I had the moola.

From what I've heard, DQ9 is more multiplayer-focused than the other entries. That might sway your opinion if you're not much of a mutliplayer guy.

I think they've over-pushed the multiplayer aspects of the game. While they're very well done and a lot of fun, the game is every bit as much fun to play solo as it is with other adventurers.

@Corbie Thanks for the clarification.

I'd go with DQ9 because really Enix unlike their Square half with their yoyo mentality with FF going from turd to triumph, DQ has always been rock steady on the quality, setup, what to expect just with a new story. DQ9 really is no different other than adding in a massive sized multiplayer part that's 100% optional you don't need but can enjoy. On it's own, long game with good depth, with people who knows how many hours could get sunk in.

P3P.

DQ9 without a doubt!
