As promised, my review of Catherine (story mode):

Visuals: 9/10

The in-game art style is good enough that I actually found myself preferring it over the anime cutscenes.

Sound: 8.5/10

An interesting mix of classical and modern music. Good voice actors, with a few odd deliveries (but on the whole still good).

Gameplay: 9/10

You'll start seeing moving blocks in your daydreams and/or dreams after playing this game for an evening. It's easy to get into a Tetris-like "zone" once you're familiar with the gameplay.

Overall: 9/10

If you like puzzle games or are an Atlus fan, you'll probably like this game. Or possibly if you have a sheep fetish, because there are lots of them.

Catherine vs. Katherine: Katherine

Admittedly, I haven't finished the Catherine True Ending yet.

Up until now, I've largely ignored everything about this game. The only thing I knew was that it came from Japan and was supposed to be good. I even went so far as to ignore the articles on Kotaku. I have no idea why I did all this. Possibly because I'm saving my money at the moment and need no new expenditures; The Witcher 2 being the last game I bought. Now I'm sorely tempted to go snag this since it seems pretty decent and the reviews make it a compelling play.

You could experience the bulk of the game in a rental period if you don't want to shell out the bucks for it, but it was pretty hard to find when I bought it (didn't preorder), and I couldn't find anywhere to rent it.

If you're lucky, the sheep will stay out of your dreams.
