Atlus Japan announced a new project from the Persona team in this week’s issue of Famitsu. Catherine is an action/adventure game with a horror taste intended for adults.
The game’s premise appears to be about a man who wakes up every night from his dreams. That’s what the text in pink tells us. An info box says Catherine is in development for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
Katsura Hashino, the director of Persona 4, is the producer/director of Catherine. Shigenori Soejima is the character designer and Shoji Meguro is the game’s composer.
The Persona role-playing-game franchise is getting a hi-def entry called "Catherine". It's an action-adventure type game that is aimed at adults.
The game follows Vincent as he wakes up every night from his dreams. Vincent, website Siliconera points out, appeared in Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Portable!.
i just read more news on this. and this sentence here has me sold!
"Catherine is the story of a 30-year-old man named Vincent who encounters a much younger woman called Catherine, who seems to have a predilection for eating pizza suggestively. "
pre-pre-preorder!
can you give us the source for the news please?
i also want to pre-pre-preorder!!!!

thanks to Eelcire in the hongfire forums for this wonderful pizza loving scan. is it just me or they made the pizza cheese look like something...else... thats from hentai
yes i agree ssjben p3 and p4 had wonderfully good english voices, and the music was also very catchy...one of the best rpgs on ps2 actually for me, especially p4. really really enjoyed that one.
however, ps3 is in blu ray, an option to switch voices would be nice but we are getting way ahead of ourselves, lets all eagerly wait for this
Since Catherine is published by Atlus, there is a chance this game will be ported to English with dual VA like P3 & P4.
i don't remember p3, fes, or p4 having option to change to japanese track, dood. but it was still good va. now, horrible english va examples are the shining force diablo style game, i forgot the name, or star ocean english voices lol(all of em). to an extent all smt series english va have been decently good to very good.
oops sorry. thanks for pointing out my mistake, dood . still blur in the morning because i didn't get much sleep last night .
you are right, the persona series on PS2 only had english tracks.
I don't know about you guys but Vincent reminds me of spike from cowboy bebop:

Catherine (キャサリン, Kyasarin?) is an upcoming action-adventure game developed and published by Atlus for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game will be Atlus' first game for seventh-generation consoles in high definition. It has been said that the game will have some "shockingly adult scenes" by Shigenori Soejima—the game's character designer—during an interview. Shoji Meguro—the game's sound composer—stated that the title is indeed adult-oriented and described the music as being "classic", "adult oriented" and "erotic.
from wiki
for all of us veterans, who have played GOW & Heavy Rain, we won't be shocked..

The sex won't be the same sort of american style you see on GOW or Heavy Rain. The art style indicates that the sex in this game is akin to that of Gantz or if you want to be nostalgic, some where between the lines of Akira.
oooohh Akira type of sex...nice. Now, I want this game even more. If there is no english version, this will be the first japanese game I will buy because I like sex...
as a fan of persona series,i know i'm gonna like this.
because of the "shockingly adult" nature of this game i had to put the 18SX rating on the title. we don't want to corrupt innocent minds now, would we? hahahaha
this is ATLUS we are talking about and so far they have not published any hentai games. so Catherine would be ecchi but not the comedy type of echhi. Catherine is "horror" ecchi like this show:
this is my favourite anime atm. highly recommended for anyone who likes horror with ecchi..
