The PSX version was Americanized to hell, changing the main characters to appeal more to the American audience (not just their names, but most were made to be more European in appearance, and one character was outright changed to a Black guy). Not only that, but it also removes a very significant part of the story (the Snow Queen quest).

The PSP version has everything that was in the original Japanese version intact, including the characters and the aforementioned Snow Queen quest... But then it also completely upends the soundtrack, going from the 90's dark atmospheric music that fit the game... for a bunch of J-Pop that's more inline with the later Persona games (specifically Persona 4, which was the newest game at the time), with no way to switch to the old music.

I wonder if Atlus will ever release a new version that keeps all of the old music (or allows you to switch between soundtracks)?

Lol like the smallest complaint with the remake. The original has many issues but some good music. The remake fixes everything and adds new music. I get a preference but its by far the best version.

The original soundtrack was waaay better. Plus they straight up just cut the soundtrack from 100 songs to 60 and no one has their own theme anymore >_>
