I really liked Persona 4 (the whole Persona series has become one of my favourites) it was the first one of the series I played (i think i've played it 2 or 3 times through now) and have subsequently gone and got all the old ones as they've been re-release on psp.

the graphics are anime style, gameplay in combat is turn based/command driven but at least you can now control each character if you wish (iirc - been a while since i played it and i'm in the land of sleep-deprived-new-parent). A lot of the gameplay is social interactions with people and you build up you relationships with different people to unlock the abiity to created stronger personas.

The music i can only describe as persona-ish - there is a distinct flavour to the music in all persona games hard to describe maybe kinda jpop-y - I think the music is very similar to Person 3 if you ever played that. Iirc each dungeon area has different music so it's not the same some over and over. Pretty sure Atlus is working on a Persona-ish game for the PS3 - fingers crossed anyway!!

I bought Persona Trinity soul as soon as i found there was an anime based on the games - its set 10 years after Persona 3 and its definately worth watching if you liked the games - the plot is of course similar to all the games - person awakens to their ability to fight some impending disaster - while its a new storyline there is an appearance in the anime by one of the characters from persona 3 :) I love the games and I really enjoyed the anime so i'd recommend give the anime a go even if you never played one of the games the storylines are always good.

It has some notable locations that should get a good chuckle.

Chie will probably your favorite when it comes to combat assists... it can even send off some bosses instantly. Galactic Punt is such an overpowered assist.

And one of the dungeons is a nostalgic trip back to 8-bit times. You'll know which one when you get to it. Even the music fits!

i've played and finished the game but is the anime worth pursuing? is it better than the game?

I wouldn't say it's better than the game, but it's definitely worth watching. I'm really loving it so far!

But yeah, Star, Persona 4 is my favorite game of all time. YOU NEED TO PLAY IT GOSH DARN IT! NOW!!! It has plenty of funny moments but also has that creepiness of other Megami Tensei games that I love so much. The characters are just so lovable. The kinda retro style of the whole game is pretty cool, too. Same for the music.
