I created a new video of the first 42 minutes of Persona 3. It's been uploaded to GameVideos and GameTrailers.
It shows off every thing from the title screen all the way to the first time your character utilizes his Persona. Obviously the video is nothing but spoilers, so if you don't want to ruin anything for yourself just skip it. However, in light of the delay I figured some people would be interested in this.
Unfortunately, the full sized video is just simply too large to easily distribute. It had to be compressed and lowered down to a 320x240 resolution. Obviously video sites compress video even more, but it's still definitely watchable. The main issue, to me, is that the audio is noticeably more hiss-y. "S" sounds definitely don't come off that poorly in the actual game.
I was going to embed the video, but unfortunately GameVideos' player scales the video up and makes it look even worse. I would suggest going to the page for the video where you can either watch it or download it for yourself. Gametrailers, meanwhile, seems to have sampled the video up to a larger size. You can watch it here.
Thanks!

I'll probably be putting up the full 720x480 video later on... possibly as soon as today. The main problem has been finding a way to compress it nicely.

Doesn't DivX compress the video to good quality in a nice size ?
By the way, the part where the classmate says "Tony gave him the answer... He must pay attention to class!" Then it says "> You are slightly popular" Lol.

No problem.
Just to let every one know, I'm upping a 640x480 version to Gametrailers now. I imagine by the time they re-encode it that I'll have the link for it in the morning.

Yep, that's what's being used in the video. I'm not sure if you'll be happy with it, but you can check it out. I don't think it works too badly, but it has the same problems most games do -- if someone gets cut off by someone else, you can always see it coming.
I hate that lol. That's never how it would work in real life... and yet it happens when you see plays, movies, games, tv shows...
In the video, any dialog moves along automatically with that setting. Anything I have to press a button for has an arrow on the side.

Here's a 640x480 version if anyone is interested:
http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/87147.html
Hopefully it's just re-hyping people up for the game that were a bit disappointed by the delay. I think it could help get new people interested in the game as well. I really don't think anyone will watch this and be like "well, after that I don't have to play it!" or anything like that lol. The game is really good so far (and reviews seem to say it will continue to be so) and I hope people make sure to pick it up. It has a very addicting quality to it and I often find myself wondering what might have been different had I said something else... even if it's just a different character reaction.
I don't plan on doing any other clips, by the way. This (in particular) and what's out there are more than sufficient... This actually winds up spoiling very little in the scheme of things (I did a whole new game for this video, I'm a decent amount past this point), believe it or not. A lot of what is in this video has actually appeared in some official videos, particularly ones from Japan.

Is there a way to download the movie directly from the Gametrailers site?
