    @Axxol: some predictions seem pretty accurate while others look like complete shots in the dark

    This isn't really an analysis of any particular Catherine trailer, but more like a compilation of all the information we have at the moment.  A few comments:
     

    The restaurant where Vincent hangs out with his friends is called the Stray Sheep. 

    Didn't notice that.
     

    So far, the waitress Erica, is the only side character whose name is known. 

    I have no idea at all where the guy who made the video got that information.

    Several things point towards Catherine taking place in a Western setting. 

    That's interesting, but I doubt it because of the food Vincent and his friends eat in the trailers.

    as Vincent appears unarmed. 

    It seems kind of obvious that his weapon will be his pillow...
     

    Also, the room Vincent "dies" in doesn't appear to be his own apartment.

    I hadn't thought of the dead person being Vincent, but just a random victim of the nightmare world.  That theory is also supported by the fact that it doesn't look like the corpse is in Vincent's apartment.

    Italian Stallion (don't know what this means. ->) 

    I like to think that it's a reference to Giant Bomb's own Vinny Caravella.

    I knew that the Waitress would be fairly important as she's in both trailers. 
    EDIT: Noticed that the song in the analysis extends past the clip from the trailer. Is there a longer version, and if so where can I find it?

    Actually, I'm pretty sure he's implying Vincent is dead at the start of Catherine. the place with the shriveled corpse(he assumes is vincent) is not the same place as the apartment we see him alive in the trailers combined with the fact that his  Jacked reads "since 2009"(again, he's assuming Catherine takes place in 2010).
     
    I doubt it, though.

    I think the Vincent being dead thing is way off. They would have made it far more obvious if the game were going to be a "play the last week of this guy's life" kind of thing, played that up. That's just a random guy who died the same way Vincent would if the player screws up.

    Actually, I don't think it's far off. Considering the corpse does look like him perhaps it's a possible ending (this is supposed to have multiple) and could be the really bad ending, where your just dead, and that would be a what happens and the news is covering it.
     
    But it could also be one of the many students that are coming up dead that Vincent and his 'gang' are looking into, to stop their own dreams of going up stairs endlessly  so the don't end with the same fate.

    As far as I know, there have been no specific reference to students being particularly involved in the story.

    My apologies, I read "Rash of sudden deaths" as "Rash of student deaths"
