Taken from PS3Trophies.com: Catherine Confirmed for North American Release This Summer Written Tuesday, March 01, 2011 by Richard Walker Bizarre commitment anxiety game, Catherine is heading for a North American release in summer 2011, charting protagonist Vincent's awkward journey through relationship hell, as he's caught up in a strange love triangle. There's sheep and goats involved too for reason. "Catherine is an unprecedented exploration of the pleasures and horrors of love," commented Aram Jabbari, Manager of PR and Sales at Atlus. "As Vincent, a man recently succumbed to the irresistible beauty of the game's titular diversion, players find themselves swept into a treacherous love triangle. Catherine's core themes-those of free will, of the delicate nature of relationships and the choices we make within them, marry perfectly with the intense, terror-filled gameplay that serves to accurately reflect Vincent's growing sense of anxiety. It is an experience wholly unlike any to come before it, and is certain to leave gamers talking and thinking about Vincent's tribulations long after the credits have rolled." You can head over to official Catherine site and preorder the game now. Fingers crossed for a European release at some point, eh?

I DL'd the demo from the JP Store. It was only a 3D puzzle game except for the cut scenes in between levels. Pretty wild graphics but no storyline that I could follow of course, other than what is described by the articles I read online. Not my cup of tea but I'm sure that many others will love it. :wink:
