While Catherine wasn't really at the Tokyo Game Show, it was really encouraging to see all the retail displays at game stores around Tokyo. Some had mini LCD TVs taped to game shelves with running loops of Catherine footage. Others had posters, mini signs and other ads. One even had a homemade (and horny!) cutout situation taped to a store shelf. If nothing else, retailers really seem to be behind Atlus' upcoming title.
One thing we all can get behind is this spread leg poster that Atlus is pushing. On their blog (or in our gallery) you can nab a really large version of the racy poster, though you should note that it's probably Not Safe For Work in that large format. Also be sure to check out the amazing header image on the official Catherine blog. Wow.
It seems that Atlus wants to give away three copies of the full B2 sized retail poster (in Japan). They have a Twitter contest that has fans describing how they feel about the game. The best entries will get the full poster, says Andria Sang.
I'm so glad that this is how Atlus decided they'd go HD.

I'm fucking terrified of this game, and I'm not sure why. :o
Indeed
I still have no clue what the game is even about or what the gameplay is! I can't understand how people can jump on a game with such little info.
Two reasons
1) It's an Atlus game
2) Titties
DAMNIT DALE. WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO GET MY SMUT NOW?
I figured that was the case.
I can't get excited unless I see game play/read about reviews or the game mechanics. I guess all the people with tigh pants buy games like BMXXX and for the nakedness factor.

Well, the nightmarish things and story seem intriguing as hell, to be fair.
I mostly just want to know what is going on.
And it does convey a sort of sexuality that isn't even seen in pr0n games, a more romantic, yet devilish flaire. I'm utterly enthralled and confused, and while I don't know how it plays, I doubt gameplay would be the main draw to this game.
Have you watched the trailer yet? It totally seduces you into it's dark surrealism.
No way this comes to America unedited.
Guess that's part of being an evil secularist though.
I SWEAR TO GOD, IF HEAVY RAIN CAN GETS TITS, SO CAN THIS.
You're a fucking creep dude.
Y'kno, if it's still not working by now.
