Journalist loking for sources

Hi All! I’m a NYC based journalist doing a story about Henti games and other kinds of ‘sex’ videogames, and I’m looking to talk to some fans.

Who am I? I’ve written about videogames for a long time - I wrote a book called “Smartbomb” about the industry in 2005 and now write for NY Times, LA Times, GQ and Details. This story is for Penthouse. I’m looking at what games are out there and why different countries have such different attitudes towards sex in videogames. These Peach Princess titles are fascinating to me. Would love to talk to some people to see how they fit into larger picture, etc.

So if anyone feels like discussing, please contact me this week! h.chaplin@verizon.net

Thank you!!

Hi, welcome to the forums! I believe you talked with Peter on the phone, correct? If you take a look around and see anything you’re curious about don’t hesitate to ask, myself (and I’m sure some of the other forum members) would be happy to help you with any information you require.

Scorpioeyez - hi! I’ve read Otaku Review. Maybe you can help me understand where Hentai fits into the videogame/porn/anime world? let me know.

The best article about ero-games i remember is this one: “The story of eroge”. Another very good is this one, about Galgames coming to age.

Wikipedia has some articles too, here and there. :slight_smile:
