Can't believe that troll only last 5 minutes, if I'm the troll, I'll keep it atleast a day to see PS3 users meltdown.

Tcab96 · Apr 23, 2016

I don't know what I would've hated more. The sudden elation and immediate despair this troll just gave me, or the slow burn that could've happened with me thinking I knew when Persona 5 will be coming out all day only to have it snatched away in the exact same manner.

sense · Apr 23, 2016

I have to say it was surreal for a moment seeing pc gamers being on cloud 9. even though I found it to be unbelievable that atlus would make such a grand entry into pc gaming I thought it was real for a second there as well.

I don't see it?

On the site, click the most recent news thing and I see the "Take your heart" countdown post and the PS4&PC and date below it but I don't see the "bad security sorry GAF" thing.

I still see

The link in the OP gives a "can't find page" type message, and checked the latest post I do see a PS4&PC, but otherwise the info reflects a PS4 and PS3 release with a date that hasn't been announced. They're probably working to correct the info now.

"IF" you were the troll you say? You have put a lot of thought into this "IF" scenario, haven't you.

Ydelnae · Apr 23, 2016

If I was the one doing the troll I would have written something like "We apologize for the Persona 5 cancelation and we will do our best on our next mobile title" or namedroped NX/PS4Neo, the troll wasn't that cruel lol

Blobbers · Apr 23, 2016

Shit, I already told sold my PS4 and they guy said he was on his way over, and now when I called him to cancel the transaction he's saying he's coming over anyway so I can give him money for the gas he spent. Contemplating just locking my door and not answering, he sounded pissed.

This is like that Reddit rumor for FFXV PC.

At least FFXV PC is basically guaranteed from Square's strategy, Atlus is stubborn.

I don't own a PS4, I would play Persona 5 on PS3 if that was my option.

1080p/720p are irrelevant as both are a significant downgrade.

And I was actually waiting for PS3 gaffers to enter the ring later on.

Shame we know about that devs can't make PS4Neo-games exclusives.

If not, I would have moved the release and announced as PS4-Neo exclusive just to see the meltdown lol

I've still not seen any of the "hacked" posts but I definitely see the PS4&PC post still there. Tried different browsers and devices to make sure it wasn't a cache issue or whatever and it shows up.

Were people actually seeing the "sorry gaf" post or just reacting to the image? Like, are we sure it was there and not someone doing that thing where you change an element?

I opened the site and saw the same post and took a screenshot on my phone.

PC was even more fake. We all believe this because it came from the official site, not because the PC version for japan Day 1 made sense.

It was there for a brief moment, I saw it (and took a screenshot, too). Then it changed to "page not found" right now.

It was on the site for everyone to see. It wasn't inspect element.

No, it's not. I can still see it now. I think both the hacker and Atlus still missing that one.
The platforms below is updated with PS3 now though.
