Catherine (PlayStation 3) review"In the evenings, after spending entirely too much time drinking with his buddies at a bar called the Stray Sheep and talking about nightmares that leave his mind when he awakens in the morning, Vincent goes home and goes to bed and dreams that he is climbing a seemingly endless tower of blocks while many others around him—all of them appearing as sheep—do the same thing. If Vincent can only reach the cathedral on the eighth floor, a mysterious stranger in a confessional booth promises him, the recurring nightmares will cease." |
Katherine with a ‘K’ is examining her life and wondering why she has been dating a man for five years now when the very thought of marriage causes him to break out into a cold sweat and stammer like a fourth-grader with his hand caught in the cookie jar. Her long-time boyfriend Vincent is the protagonist in Catherine, a video game from Atlus that exists primarily to tell the story of one man’s attempt to grapple with his evolving relationship with Katherine after he meets someone new and surprising: Catherine with a ‘C.’
