Catherine for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

This is a puzzle game at its core, and if your just another mindless sheep following the herd waiting to shoot your friends in the face for a UAV, you best keep walking, oh lamb. I played and beat this game in 2 days on normal, im no brainiac but im no quitter either, the trick to this game is thinking. If you try to solve the puzzles with out any planning you'll find yourself in an impossible situation. At first it will seem ridiculously difficult, but just like any game you gotta let the mechanics sink in. You might find that its not as daunting as you first thought and possibly even addictive. You might even discover you have a talent for it, and there is nothing better then feeling your smarter then you were the day before like that Portal 2 feeling. I mean i feel smarter the the people that commented that "it was too hard, and i quit after 10 mins" BOO HOO! People, there was a demo don't be mad at Gamefly because of your carelessness. The story is very well written but the in game cut-scenes leave a bit to be desired, but it still gets the job done well. Anything else is told through great looking anime scenes, and if you enjoy anime (I do) you'll enjoy this.The story is one of those changing to your actions type of deals with instead of you out right chosing being bad or being good, your seemingly pointless interactions have effects on your state of mind which is what your character (Vincent) will base his actions on, in the story that deals with adult themes like love, lust, infidelity, loyalty and the complex relationships between men and women. With a whopping 8 possible endings it's best to be true to yourself and do what you would do in that situation, for your an ending that you'll love, which can end with a perfect farytale ending, a indecisive ending or a WTH did i just see happy ending, ect. So yeah, a great story, rewarding gameplay, and even local co-op and competitive, with global leader boards. But with no online i give it a 9 out 10. PLAY IT!
