Nice Title there Jeff.

"Any news for a release in England? "

Just import it on PS3 from VGP or something, it runs better and it's region free. 

" While everyone is focusing on Katherine and Catherine...  I'm wondering what's up with all the sheep eye murders.  "

Also, Catherine is coming? 
 
I thought Vincent's whole problem started because Catherine came. 
 
So to speak...

Awesome!

Great News!!! and surprising that it will come this summer.

I'm glad that Catherine will have a US release, but I'm still not sure if I'm going to be picking this game up. I'm most interested in Catherine's story, as it's hard to judge how fun a block puzzle game is from a video.

I'm sorry I can't help it its this stupid little thing that uuughhhhh I have to say  
"CATHERINE IS COMING!!!" phew..... very nice. 

" Awesome!

I'm greatly disturbed that I see what you did there. "

so who was the jerk who said that catherine is not coming to the U.S.??????????????

" so who was the jerk who said that catherine is not coming to the U.S.?????????????? "

Was hoping for a budget-price on this. 60 seems a bit steep for the content I've seen of the gameplay.

This is, like, less than a week since they said "definitely not anytime soon." Oh, Atlus, I'll never trust you again even if you are amazing.

I wonder how the localization team is going to work around issues of ambiguity with the two Catherines. As I understood it, it was going to be a central plot device that there is no differentiation between the Japanese spelling of Katherine and Catherine and so that would create confusion and what not. Maybe they could substitute the K or C in those moments of ambiguity for a symbol like... 
This: lc  but like together? like a k with rounded edges or something.  
 
How do you think it will work?

interesting to read about but i don't think i'll be playing this.  its just too weird for me.   

This is awesome news! I love you, Atlus!

Im surprised they spelled coming correctly :)

Meh.

" @G3RHRT: Maybe the ambiguity isn't all that important. Or maybe they'll just blur out "Catherine/Katherine" in a subtitle when a character says their name. "

" Finally, kinda weird how Jeff thinks Persona 4 was "out for a long time." It had been out for exactly two months in America when they started the Endurance Run. It didn't come out in Europe until a month after they started! Yeah Persona games would reach their sales limits faster due to being more niche titles, but it's not a very long time at all. "

I'd say he ambiguity is quite important in a few scenes, so at least for those I hope they figure a censoring method out for the C/K. "

Soukyugurentai Endurance Run confirmed.

I'd solve it by calling both characters "Catherine". I don't think the part where her name is writing with a "k" is super relevant. "

I cried manly tears.

So... it IS more than block pushing, right?

Jeff, you are now buying a second copy.
 
You know you can't resist.
 
You will also play through it with Vinny...

Now if only the gameplay wouldnt seem like shit :/

I've always wondered why there is soo much hype for this game on GB, i mean yea ill be getting it, but i thought "anime is for jerks"?

" I've always wondered why there is soo much hype for this game on GB, i mean yea ill be getting it, but i thought "anime is for jerks"? "

Cool, I'll probably import this to EU then for the ps3, 
although the PS3 is currently banned in Europe so who knows what'll happen.. 

Best news that I ever saw this month! <3

The problem there is that you seem to be taking the 'anime is for jerks' thing seriously. :D  Anyone who genuinely thinks that 'all anime is bad' is a little on the silly side. The GB community just loves stylish and unique games with crazy storylines! "

fuck just got spoiled all the plotpoints of catrine in the comments on the trailer on igns channel that fucking sad guess i wont pick it up after all also yo that game is much more fucked up than you can possible think

Surprised they used the JP Box art. Risky.

Yes, was actually considering importing and then slowly scrapping through the japanese.  Now I don't have to ><! can't wait

this is a mindset of someone who doesnt understand animes and probably doesnt give it a chance. if you dont like it, fair enough, your entitled to your opnion, but labeling someone a 'jerk' for liking anime is absurd  i dont watch anime religiously, but of all the anime i have watched, it has far impressed me more than any tv drama i have seen you should break the habit of hating on things you dont understand  and i assume the GB community are more hype than others, probably because of the P4 endurance run :)  that being said, i want this game "

" Surprised they used the JP Box art. Risky. "

Yes! This is the best news i've heard in a while, and Catherine looks amazing!

Since the announcement and all the subsequent shenanigans about Catherine, I've wondered how they wouldn't release it.
