A new listing on Amazon's Japanese site suggests that a new entry in Atlus's long-running Shin Megami Tensei series could be headed to PS3. The listing is for a game with the temporary title Shin Megami Tensei. Even if this is real, of course, the Shin Megami Tensei series seems impossibly diverse, and could mean anything from first-person dungeon crawlers to MMOs.While many of the spin-off games called Shin Megami Tensei in America -- like the Persona series and Devil Survivor -- don't carry the Shin Megami Tensei name in Japan, there's still a staggering variety of games that could fall under the label, given that the Devil Summoner series, the recent Strange Journey, and, yes, Shin Megami Tensei Imagine (the MMO) have been branded with the "main" series title. Basically, there are a ton of spin-offs, and some of them include Shin Megami Tensei in their name.
For its first appearance on a next-gen system, though, chances seem a bit higher that this will be the "real" followup to Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne. Whatever it is, it'll probably involve demons. And cool character art.
