Catherine Demo Planned For XBLCatherine is a bit of an unknown quantity at present, which is more than a bit unusual considering that the game's Japanese release date is just over a month away. At present, there have been a few details on the story and characters, as well as a few cryptic trailers, but nothing on the actual gameplay has been revealed.
Thank goodness that there's a demo in the pipeline then, which will finally give prospective buyers the chance to find out what Catherine is all about. The game's director, Katsura Hashino, confirmed that a demo is incoming via a post on the game's official blog (http://cathy.atlus.co.jp/blog/2010/12/post-18.html), where he also addressed feedback he'd received regarding Catherine.
Hashino noted that "many people are excited" about Catherine, but acknowledged a sequence of confusion, with concerns including, "If it's sexual, I can't buy it" and questions like "I'm gonna buy this, but what kind of game is it?" Check out one of the several weird and wonderful trailers released thus far below, and see whether you can make head or tail of what's going on there. Death, cleavage and sheep is all we got from it.
All will be revealed when the demo for Catherine is released, which will presumably be ahead of the Japanese date for the game's launch on February 17th.
"I'm gonna buy this, but what kind of game is it?"
Some people are just fucking sheep, seriously >.<
I remember seeing a video about this a while ago. It didn't look particularly interesting, but I guess the demo will let me know for sure. Hopefully it's crap, so I don't feel obligated to spend money on it that I don't have.
My mind feels fucked up just watching that weird ass sh*t!

Agreed.
I read a preview of this in Game Informer. They seem to be excited for it since it's from the Persona team. From what they revealed, it's going to be a lot more accessible than Persona, which is good. Just not sure if "accessible" is what Persona fans are looking for. ;)

An old friend of mine fed his pet python to his piranhas when it died.

Nice!!!!
I really liked the demo. I'll be picking this up when it hits < $20.
Just a reminder, try the demo (http://marketplace.xbox.com/Product/Catherine-Demo/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802415487db?cid=SLink). O0
Vouch for that - good demo, more so for the story though as I can see the puzzle-stuff getting somewhat repetitive.
EDIT: Still can't decide tho, between the PS3 and Xbox 360 version. I've heard the PS3 version runs smoother on the cut-scenes, but other than that and the cover difference, still not sure. :-\
