Up above, I give you a quick visual tour of a key component in Shin Megami Tensei IV's gameplay, but I have a few more notes I didn't make note of in the video (or couldn't because I've avoided all spoilers in it). Hell, I might repeat myself, but this stuff is important if you think you can brave Normal difficulty. Check out my Combat Review Log for details on how to lower the difficulty if you're running into trouble.

"While the Steam Summer Getaway Sale hasnt claimed all of us just yet (that Ys Chronicles I II deal is looking mighty enticing), theres still a long way until it ends at 10AM PST on July 22. Since the sales change on a daily (and sometimes hourly) basis, youll want to keep your eyes constantly peeled on Steamdb.info, which tracks all the current sales. And if you want no part in this PC sale whirlwind, console publishers have a few things going on too. Like we previously mentioned, nabbing Fire Emblem Awakening and the upcoming Shin Megami Tensei IV and registering them on Club Nintendo will give you $30 eShop credit. And be sure to update your firmware: the StreetPass Mii Plaza got an overhaul, complete with four new games that you can utilize your collected Miis on for $14.99. Playstation Plus members get Oddworld: Munchs Odysee HD for free this week, and those of you in the mood for the greatest voice acting in gaming history can partake in the newest PS2 Classic:...

GR: "Atlus packs in as many synthesizer-driven tracks it can, but I've done my best here to give you a nice audible review."

More Shin Megami Tensei IV. Seriously, I'm trying to burn through so I can continue our Review Logs and have a final verdict on release day for all you eager fans. Ummm, possibly a little Animal Crossing: New Leaf with Nick (and Keri too maybe).

411mania - Its been nine years since Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne, but the fourth entry in the SMT series is here. Fans may have been worried that Shin Megami Tensei IV would suffer by being a handheld title on a Nintendo system, but dont worry; SMT is everything fans will want and more.

While Shin Megami Tensei IV continues a long tradition of excellent Atlus soundtracks, I think it stands apart from the rest by blending new and old almost seamlessly. This track plays during Mid-Boss battles and splashes with every attack, cast, and heal. I love the frothy drums and cymbals and the old-school synthesizers. When you're playing the game the menu sound effects sort of layer into the track, adding a higher-pitch rhythm that you control selecting moves or items. I like this track a lot, but it's one of many battle themes you'll get stuck in your head.

ZoKnowsGaming writes "I have a few gripes with the structure of the plot and the overworld, but its hard to hate this absolutely massive game. The characters are likeable, the gameplay is accessible for most while maintaining a mostly-proper traditional core, and the plot is one that sticks with you for more time than it should have any right to. In other words, Shin Megami Tensei IV is a great JRPG in its own right, and certainly stands as the best one yet on Nintendo 3DS."
