Persona Creators Announce "Adult-Oriented" Catherine for PS3/360

[TerribleAssassin]

Now I want a big pizza.


OT: I might buy, with my hand over the off switch in case my mum walks in

 

[headphonegirl]

I hope theres a Uk realease.

 

[Rayansaki]

Anything by the team responsible for Persona 3 is an automatic day one buy or day -one buy imported if it has english language, no matter what it is

 

[Wintermoot]

mmmm! pizza!

 

[Funkiest Monkey]

I only saw the far right of the picture first, and was like "WOAH. THEY CAN'T POST THIS ON THE ESCAP- Oh, it's pizza. Just pizza cheese... That's all. Ha."

But honestly, this game could be pretty good, from the minds behind Persona.

 

[WanderingFool]

I never cared for the Persona series, to anime-y for me, plus I have a kind of love-hate relationship with JRPGs... I now really want to try this game...

 

[John Funk]

I am really hoping that 2d/3d cartoon look are the in game graphics. That would be an awesome artistic direction to take it, but alas I'm just expecting anime cutscenes.http://cdn.themis-media.com/media/global/images/galleries/full/68/68134.jpg
That bottom left image looks like it could possibly be in game graphics (possibly).

It's in-game, yep.

 

[Discon]

The "eating pizza suggestively" part mage me smile

 

[Allan Foe]

"I'm horny" jokes in 3, 2, 1...

 

[Nazrel]

Can't really make any assessment on the game at the moment. It's made by the same people who did persona, so I'm willing to give it a chance. But come on, stooping to T&A as it's focal selling point, I can't help but feel disappointed.

 

[wellhereiam]

I'm really confused now, is this game going to be awesome or just one of those weird fanservicey throwaway type games that there's around 300,000 of over in Japan?

 

[Prophetic Heresy]

He looks like he's thinking of redecorating.

 

[For.I.Am.Mad]

So by 'adult' and 'erotic' they really only mean erotic. Cuz I don't see anything adult here. Hurry up and make Persona 5.

 

[For.I.Am.Mad]

Wait a minute, the guys in his 30's and he's the main character? They pretty much don't exist in animeville. Japanese people aren't going to buy that, the kid's gotta be 15 or preferably younger.

 

[Judgement101]

That picture made me sick for some reason.

Good thing that you have established that already, saves me the trouble of actually, you know, playing the game. After all, there is nothing in these pictures that hints of themes that deals with a tortured psyche, fears and anxieties, schizophrenia, morality, and so on and so forth. Thanks!

Ho-oh yes! Freaking Sweet. That's some awesome cel-shade, I gotta say. Better than PoP 08(which was great).

All Japanese protagonist are tortured and crazy, usually it has something to do with their mom. To be fair I have seen the trailer and it does look interesting, he actually seems to have a normal sexual relationship with her.

Well, Atlus may not be the chief offenders when it comes to that trademark Japanese perversion we all know and love, but I retain some reservations as to whether this sexual relationship will be, by any stretch of the imagination, "normal".

Either way, I am wholly excited!

 

[Seldon2639]

Next, on "Things that will never be released in North America..."

Eh.

Altus has a pretty good record of saying "fuck it, we've got the money" and doing a fantastic localization and release even in the face of some risque parts of their games. I'm absolutely amazed some of the earlier SMT games made it here, what with the "god is really the one trying to kill you, so go off Jesus" aspects.
