Catherine Is ALREADY Atlus's Best Selling Game In 20 Years!

-CONGRATS ATLUS on another great game!!!

Atlus sales and marketing VP Tim Pivnicny talked to IGN today and had this to say about the sales of the game.

"Catherine has exceeded our highest expectations," he said. "It released last week to tremendous critical acclaim and fan response, bolstered by the release of a demo a couple weeks prior, and continues to generate discussion among fans for its mature themes, engrossing subject matter, and frantic, challenging gameplay."

While no numbers were given this is big news for the company. Demon Souls was the last big selling game for the small publishers showing that having "faithful" fans can make a profit on those niche Japanese game. Now with Catherine being a success maybe Persona 5?

-I will be pretty tired from all the killing after it all

On A Slow News Day I'm...

-Well for one I am very jealous of Vincent right now.

Seriously though, I have been quite busy getting a lot of things done with video games and here is a quick update for what I'm playing. I finally beat Catherine after 16 hours and am working on a review as well as for Back to the Future the game series. Also in anticipation for Bioshock Infinite I have picked up Bioshok 1 and 2. So far I have played around with Bioshock 1, even though I beat it already I still wanna go through it one more time. Finally I have not forgotten about L.A. Noire and am working through that as well, but will not put up a review for it. Although I might post impressions cause it is quite an interesting game.

Finally as a plus for this slow day thanks goes out to VG-Resources for these Hidden Cellphone Pictures that were on the disk and some were not used. By the way this article will be long, but you won't mind. Enjoy!
