Without the story and the choice system (the game's based on quizzing players about their feelings on sex, relationships, cheating and even marriage), all you're getting is a block-moving puzzle game that kills your character if you go full retard at the wrong moment.

Pretty much. Even a game that claims itself to be so "strange" only can get so far with gameplay that shoddy.

The thing that'll get some people to buy it is the fact that Atlus put out the Persona series for PS1/PS2/etc. and a number of other JRPGs (the Wiki list) on top of:

-Tactics Ogre
-GBA Advance ports of Super Dodgeball, River City Ransom, King of the Fighters
-The Trauma Center Series

...and the list goes on and on.

I'm not giving Catherine any slack because I've only seen stuff from the demo and a GamesRadar F.A.P. but I'll give the company that put it out credit for sticking to its guns when it comes to niche games.

So I learned rather quickly in new vegas that you can't just go out and run around the wasteland as easily as you could in FA3.

Man, I have delved back into old Blizzard games what with my shitty WD external drive with all of my games on it crashing...WarCraft III is some amazing shit.

With the new system, the going is tough early on (especially on Hardcore). However, by about level 10-12, you should be able to hold your own against most enemies.

Been playing FO3 lately, just beat The Pitt and played more into the main quest. Still gotta play through the other DLC, think I might try the Alien one soon. Was Point Lookout the consensus for the best of the bunch?

I turned hardcore off thank god. I'll probably try and stick to quests and building up my level instead of just wondering around like I always do.

BTW this game runs like 100X better on my PC then FO3 did.

Just looked at this game on Gamestop (granted it's Gamestop), but the user ratings for it were 9.9 on Xbox and 9.8 on PS3.


Ah, the weekend is about here. Definitely plan on getting a lot of gaming in this weekend. Going to play Reefer Madness on LA Noire, would like to try and beat Resistance 1, as well as getting into my second season as HC of Memphis in NCAA 12, maybe even some inFamous. If there's any extra time, I might dive into Gears of War 1 or Resistance 2.

That's a damn shame. Well at least that means I should be able to get it for $20 real soon.

The sadder thing is that I heard Duke Nukem sold over 600k copies.:cg:

It was the #2 game sold during June in the US.

That's cuz there are 542,000 40 year olds that have been waiting for the game for all these years.

Gonna have to take a page from the Twigg "ARGH! DAMN YOU M$!" book here with the MLB Bobbleheads shit with not being able to access entire modes for 5 bucks (like hey, here are the all-star teams...for 5 bucks!). Fucking bullshit for such a simple game.
