New Atlus game "Catherine"

[lisalover1]

Game Informer however gave the game a bad review basically disappointment because it's a puzzle game. Odd. It's like if you don't like puzzle games maybe you shouldn't review a puzzle game.

You know better than to read mainstream game reviews.

Yeah, but GiantBomb gave it a 40/100, but that was because the reviewer hated Puzzle games.

So is that really the bulk of the game's gameplay? Puzzles. I'm not a big fan of ShinMegaten games having disliked both Nocturne and Digital Devil Sage, but I do feel right at home with puzzle games

yes, it's seriously a puzzle game with a story.

I DO know better. But I get GI free so I can't help but put myself through that shit.

I don't remember where I read it, but some site had an interesting review by an over 30 gamer and he said he felt that the story actually resonates more for people in that age group than it would for younger gamers. Just thought that was interesting since I'm 32.

Just put in my order for the deluxe edition from amazon. Played the demo and can't wait for this game to get here!!!

Not that that's completely unheard of.

I haven't been able to get this one yet because I'm kind of broke now, but for future reference I'm curious if the standard edition comes with the soundtrack CD and art booklet? I ask because the amazon page shows them in the product picture but doesn't have them in the bullet points for the product features.

wikipedia says:

All pre-orders of the game, either standard or deluxe, will include a "sound disc" (soundtrack CD) and art book, which were also pre-order bonuses for the Japanese release.

Well yes, but I can't exactly preorder the game since it's already been released now can I?
