Zero Punctuation: Catherine

This week, Zero Punctuation reviews Catherine. Or is it Katherine? Yeah, that's not going to be confusing.

I've played this game all the way through. While the sliding block puzzler is fun (and challenging too boot), this game has one major flaw. It teaches you one important fact, err, I mean... opinion. Men SUCK. They suck even if they were to be the greatest person/human that has happened to ever live in this planet's history; i.e. a man that has solved world peace, stopped starvation dead in it's tracks, cured cancer, got the world economy to function perfectly,and also got republicans-Christians-liberals-socialists-democrats-Buddhists-the 1st world vs. the 3rd world-Laker fans vs. Celtic fans-any fundamentalists-libertarians-dogs vs. cats-and lastly the tea party'iers to all see eye to eye. He would still, somehow, be scum.

This game almost made me stop playing at the sure ridiculousness of the cookie-cutter reactions that all the males spouted out. They also never stuck up for themselves and were all complete "tools", especially Vincent, the main character (he's so bad that I'm certain we could upgrade him to power-tool status). There wasn't even one man in the story that had the cajones to just tell the offending (trust me, there is an opposite of a misogynist in this story, many of them--the opposite side is called misandry, BTW) opposite sex conversationalist to just: SHUT THE FUCK UP!

Still a fun game if you enjoy puzzlers; especially challenging ones.

Warning: You may want to kill the main character at many points in the game due to his utter and complete toolishness...
