I have Catherine sitting in its shrink wrap on top of my PS3. I was so busy editing this week's episode last night that I didn't even take the time to open it, lest I be sucked into "well, I'll just install it..."

It's really good, but it's really hard. No auto-piloting through this game.

I've been playing through it on normal difficulty.  It gets quite stressful.  The story is definitely interesting.  I really wish they would have expanded on the social/dating sim aspect of the game.  I would have like to have seen more interaction with the other characters beyond the time you spend in the pub which serves as the non puzzle part hub.  

Don't get me wrong the puzzle game is fun it just gets stressful.  

If you have played Persona 3 or 4 you kind of know what the basic set up will be.  Its more linear than those games though.   

Its definitely a quirky japanese game made by Atlus.  Which is exactly what I wanted.

I just finished the 4th Nightmare (baby) last night, and, yeah, stressful is right.

Basically it'd be a decently challenging puzzle game in isolation (the arcade game in Stray Sheep proves that) then they threw a brutally pressing time limit on top of it.

Ooh, Persona 3 is one of my favorite date sims. I love how they added the RPG sidequest thingy .
