What kind of Bishojo Games you like?

Yo, what about Suikoden 2?

That game didn’t rely on fancy graphics or movie scences. It had an intreging and deep plot and memorable charaters. Who could forget that scence where Luca Blight said his final words to you, or when Nanami fell in the hero’s arms as she said her last words and “died”?

Sure, some of the characters in the game might of been cliche, but there was someone for everyone, and they weren’t just one diminsional. Each one was uniuqe in look and personality with some dept in them. Even the minor characters had some feelings and personality.

And the battles, well the battles weren’t as good as Final Fantasy X. But they went hand in hand and it felt like you were actually part of the war and not just reading text and making choices. Right from the start of the game and until even at the end. It made you part of that world.

And I must say that very few games make me care about the charcters as much as Suikoden 2 does. And that’s a great accomplisment from a game which doesn’t rely on fancy graphics, or subperb movie scences.

(Of course, Kumiko-san game’s have always had story and character in them. )

That is, writing is a talent - not everyone has it, even if they have good ideas. For multi-path games, writing is a genuine challenge. It's tough to make everything work together, unlike linear games, books, or movies.

In addition, you have to remember audience expectations. Audiences expect certain stereotypes and such - they identify with those, and need them to feel "satisfied" with the entertainment. You can push that just so far, and then they rebel and feel dissatisfied, even if the work itself was technically a good production.

Every so often a work will come along that both pushes audience expectations and does so while maintaining stereotypes they simply had not thought about - however, 90% of the products still follow accepted norms because this is, after all, still just a business.

That about the gist of it. While it is hard to come up with something original (I like to write and draw and I can attest to that), one must come up with something daring. Looking at Himeya and GamelexGS, I seen several characters that look like they stepped out of To Heart or Isaku. Heck, remember when FF7 came out and everyone copied the characters and presitation (ie Legend of Dragoon).

Ah yes, Suikoden 2. My favorite RPG. While it had the "evil empire" schitck at the begining of the game, it didn't become scholcky by the end. Plus, having memerable characters doesn't hurt.

Back to bishojo games for a second, looking over some Crowd's game they some to have more originality (I hope Slave Traders (forgot the japanese title) is intelligently written). I also hope more bishojo game companies start to look towards the anime industry (namely the writers) more often.

I know that this may surprise some of you out there, but yes I have some import games. Not bishojo, but PSX, Saturn, Dreamcast, and GB. I am of the beliff that if a game has a great story and charecters drive a story. I know I am about to open a can of worms here, but I loved FFVIII not for the game-play, but for the story. I even started to tear up at some points in the game. I am the type of guy that is willing to try just about anything. I will not play sports games. I will not play them because there is no point to them, you play a team and you ither win or loose WOW, thats what I call entertainment. With a story I get a begining, middle and an end. (most of the time you get an end) I just feel that if the game does not have a desent story I just don’t get too interested. I know some of you are sying, read a book, I read all the time. You see reading takes lots of mmental efforts. (some may not agree, but if you have a overactive imagination you wear youself out) I read and I fall asleep. I play an RPG with a good story and I don’t imagine anything I see it and enjoy it. I’m rambling on and I am sorry for that. I just feel that way. bring on the flames

My take on sports games is, one doesn’t need to play any game that you can do yourself outside with friends and the proper sports equipment.

Well, that's true, but many people nowadays are a little to lazy to do that themselves - why go out and play football in the rain, when you can do it on your own computer?

I don't know. The chance to go out and have an excuse to totally smash my friends into the turf motivates me! [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]

^^;;;; Well, it might motivate you, but not some other guys I know... when it rains, they prefer to play football on the TV instead of outside...

hum, i have being away from the h area for too long, i guess it is time to get back…

about what is the kind of hgame i like? simple, insulting ones, or should i say, rape ones?

Games like syusako, kisaku[elf titles], salesman,chikan,itazura series[interheart titles] and others are rare… translated then, they are like diamonds.

Those games are a chalenge for me, they are difficult[some] because it is DIFFICULT to do those things in real life[i wouldnt do that either, even if i had 100% of success, too dangerous, and it isnt my style hehehe] but it is FUN to try it on games.

some of them follow paths that u would be amazed like shusako that in one of the ends u hang yourself because u couldnt fuck any girl, or get killed by a car in the escape from a girl, jailed by being discovered, and the special[u play to discover that one, i will not say [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/wink.gif[/img]].

Kisaku is different in some way, but it is almost as cool a syusako[could be much better, elf disappointed me in my expectations]. Now, interheart games, MAN, THEY RULEZ. Not for the good graphics or other things, but for the CHALENGE! their game ARENT A PIECE OF CAKE, chikan u do something wrong while harassing girls on trains and then POLICE DESTROY U, END OF GAME. itazura3 u have ONLY 1 week to get more than 10 girls and not get caught while on buses or trains. I noticed that interheart games are specialized in those kind of games, but they arent the only ones, there is even more games with many variations.

i found a game with the same name of CHIKAN from other company that kicked interheart’s butt. the game gives u not only one option to harrass the girl, u have MANY OPTION that could be triggered AT THE SAME TIME. like, while in interheart iazura 3 u must choose among grab the girl breast, whisper at her ear, lick her neck or grab her but[and others], u can do the same BUT at the same time in this other game. example: u can grab her butt while licking her neck and grabbing her breast!! inst it too cool?? )

http://www.alpha-net.ne.jp/users2/kaguya21/chikan_top.htm ← it isnt this one , but this is cool too, i am trying to remmember where i got the demo of the game.

Hmm, I’ve read a little about InterHearts games, and some of them certainly does look quite interesting

I’d like to try out some of these games someday… Hmm, if Peach Princess succeeds as a company, then I wonder if they might license one or two of their titles… (yeah, dream on, boy! )

About the Bishojo Games I finally finish the Ultimate Hunter, this game is huge. Took me at least one mouth to finish the game. Will I took this time long because I have to correct all of the CGs. I was so happy when I finish the game. Also, I start playing Princess Knights and this game also, huge because you will have 28 different ending (which means that 28 different girls). Will in this game you can only join with only 8 peoples. Will to see the all of the endings and H- scenes you have to play all over again because you will have three or four different h-scenes. This game is so huge. Also, in this game you can control the difficulities so you can challenge with different levels. Anyway this game is so fun and I really liked.

About the Inter Hertes Games I have the G-Spot. This game is 3D polygon and all of the girls and ladies will do the mastervation, and also, you will sex with them. All of the girls and ladies have different problems. Anyway, this game is fun. I will say this game play is 75%. Depends on the people. I really like it.

Will I have lot of the japanse game for the PS2 and DreamCast. For this is not bishojo games, but I like the RPG games. Most likely I like the Squaresoft games, and one of the made by Konami, Tokimeki memorial correction. This game have lot of differnt series. Anyway, this is talk about the Bishojo Games.
