Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES - Lead a group of high school students with a dangerous extracurricular activity: exploring the mysterious tower Tartarus and fighting the sinister Shadows during the Dark Hour, a frozen span of time imperceptible to all but a select few.
However, the end of their quest is no longer the end of the story-witness for the first time the aftermath of the final battle and the students' struggle to find meaning in their new lives.
A spin-off of the RPG Persona, Fes (or "Festival of Persona 3″ consists of Persona 3's content along with 30 hours of additional gameplay.
The new gameplay comes primarily in the form of the "Gojitsudan," a story sequence that comes after the original's ending, with new cinematic sequences in addition to the added gameplay. While the main storyline is the same, it's been tuned up with new events.
Gameplay has been updated as well, with a new "hard" setting (the original had just easy and normal), 23 new Personas, a weapon synthesis system and a system for changing your characters' clothes.

Will you be traveling out your home country in the next week?...
I just wanted to mention that you can play Treasures of Montezuma Blitz (PS Vita) as much as you want (without waiting for new lives) if you change the date of the system by one day forward and so on while having the game opened..
This will cause the game to halt regeneration of new lives for the dates that you used, but you can reset this by uninstall/install the game (You will lose your level etc. unless you make a backup first
