I am very glad to hear that while Atlus is including 'adult' content they do not appear to be heading down the ecchi/fanservice path.  This sounds like a game that is honestly targeting adults, with mature characters and themes.

I, for one, could not be more excited.  Hopefully it will be localized unmolested.

PS3 version will have a 'seamless introduction' to the Mass Effect universe.

Whatever that means...they're pretty light on specifics.

This week's Famitsu has info on Atlus's newest game, Catherine.  In development for the PS3 and 360, it is described as an action adventure game with a 'horror twist'.  Details are quite scarce at this point, but Persona staff are working on it.

Linky.

I'm in the same boat as Cyril.  Shame they didn't have release date delivery for this one but I guess they only do that for bigger titles.

I'm curious what people who have it think of it so far.

How on earth was I supposed to know you were talking about an actual survey?  You provided no reference, nor did you even mention what your statement was based on.  And you're still being incredibly vague about the contents of said survey, how it was phrased, conducted, etc.  In fact the only detail that you provide is stating that it may have been mentioned on a comedy show.  Surveys are not universal truths.

What you actually stated was of the form: most people feel X, and I stand by my original response to that.


So if I'm dating somebody and I screw her identical twin sister that's not cheating?  Score!

Actually, Square took some time and made several new games before they when back and started milking the FFVII franchise.  And even if the FFVII spinoffs weren't all great they were at least completely original games.  Though I do like Atlus, what they're doing with P3 seems even worse.

I don't get this comment...you're saying that people who don't buy both consoles are the ones with deep pockets?

Personally I have a PS3 and no 360, but I didn't even get the PS3 until it had been out for a couple of years.  There wasn't much on either system that interested me in the first few years.  Not to mention that the PS2 was still going very strong back then.

Right now if I were to get another console it would be a Wii.  But the thing that's limiting me is time, not money.  I have a hard enough time just keeping up with my backlog of PS3 games.  What do I need a whole new system for?

That title still goes to Nier in my opinion.  Which is not to say that RoF is a bad game.

Wait, what?  This is complete nonsense.  Two points:

1)  Plenty of people find the idea of human cloning (regardless of reason) to be abhorrent.  (Personally I think that's silly, but that's not the issue)  It's not a major issue at the moment since it's still largely theoretical, but you've seen how the religious right reacted even to stem cell research.  The very premise of your statement seems flawed.

2)  How is what you described not polygamy?  How can  anyone find it 'more acceptable' than polygamy when it includes polygamy?  Or do you not consider clones to be people?

I'm all for criticizing 'traditional marriage' proponents, but let's do so by sticking to facts.  When you start making arguments like the above then you're as bad as they are.

Could this be the real successor to the PSP or just a confused marketing push for more Android games?

Mark danced crazy!

Uh...we're talking about NIS, not NISA.
