Atlus' New Catherine Screens Tease and Titillate

[BehattedWanderer]

I am most exuberantly getting this. I've been waiting for sometime.

 

[AetherWolf]

Niiiiice.

The blond chick's hair reminds me of Kasane Teto:

 

[RatRace123]

Still confusing, still intriguing as hell and I still want it.
Hurry up and get here July!

 

[antipunt]

I'll be fine either way (Michelle Ruff, Laura Bailey and Troy Baker? Yes, please),

Yukari and Rise? ...In MY Catherine?! ((zomgawesome))

OT: This game seems to interest me more and more. The theme is really interesting too. I don't know what I'd do as Vincent, I guess the only way to find out is to play it. Is marriage just a tradition? Can it work? What's better/more functional/effective??

 

[Azmael Silverlance]

Ohoho this looks quiet interesting. Never heard of the japanese one but hell....its not to late to educate myself
Also the cute girls helped haha

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Still confusing, still intriguing as hell and I still want it.
Hurry up and get here July!

I regret to inform you that the entire month of July, and anything in it, has just been cancelled.

Sorry, USA. No fireworks for you!

 

[Waaghpowa]

The strange and surreal game premise is what's appealing to me, tits come second, I can get that whenever elsewhere.

 

[Laser Priest]

"Our game has breasts... Wait, shit! We meant depth! Our game has depth!"

Yeah, this looks like it is going to be a smoldering pile of shit.

 

[AbstractStream]

Hmm. Well after that, I think if I played this game, I'd have to go after the blonde. If that's how it even works. I really need to do my research about this game.

Based mostly on looks, I prefer the "-atherine" with a K. Why do I get a feeling there will be differing endings depending on which one you make Vincent choose?

I am quite pleased that I own a 360.

Yeah, I heard there will be different endings based on the decisions you make and how you do on the puzzles.

 

[soren7550]

I'm intruged, but I'm certain that I'd get a lot of funny looks and be made fun of if I play this.

 

[Alphakirby]

That's pretty much my view on the whole thing after playing the demo.The pictures just push that further.

 

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

Can I just have it now please, pretty please?

I am confused and intrigued, and July can't come fast enough.

Still looks like nothing more than a glorified porn game, complete with a good plot and an excuse to have some gameplay via the dreams.

Before you flame me, know that I don't view this as a bad thing, I just don't think something that advertises itself with erotic images and, uh, "horror" gameplay elements is trying to do anything other than show boobs and scare the shit out of you.

Wait a quick minute - hasn't every cheesy slasher film ever tried to do the same thing?

Essentially, what I'm trying to sugarcoat is this:

"Our game has breasts... Wait, shit! We meant depth! Our game has depth!"

Yeah, this looks like it is going to be a smoldering pile of shit.

This is still Atlus, and it's still only a C from CERO (the equivalent of a high Teen/low Mature rating from the ESRB). I doubt the dev team have much creative control over the advertisements used for the game.

The advertisements have (unsurprisingly) focused on the sexuality, which is also why Atlus USA are trying to downplay that in their next trailer, taking after Atlus's original "marriage" trailer:


Besides, if you've ever played an SMT or Persona game you'll understand why we're excited about this.
