    Browsing the pics to see what this title was all about I noticed that the game seems to be about two gay men. It's one of those sim games that seem to be very popular in Japan- but nowhere else.

    Anyway, it made me think - I cannot think of a console game that's been targetted directly towards homosexuals. Is this actually a first?

    Well, in a way maybe, but I may be more likely to consider it as aiming towards the audience that likes/wants Yaoi in the same way many dating sim (and other games) that involve 2 (or more) female homosexuals are not directly aimed at Lesbians but rather at people who want that but it may be partially inclusive.

    Though I could be totally wrong with this.

    In Japan, gay men are loved by the women the same way men in America love lesbians. You have lots of Shounen-ai en Yaoi manga's in Japan, and believe me it's not because there are a lot of homosexual people there.


    The girls just want their portion of fanservice, just like us men.

    Hmmm, all Sony needs to do is make a game based off Lost Horizon and I can run around yelling "MONK SAUSAGE FEST!! MONK SAUSAGE FEST!!!"

    A little in-joke between classmates. :icon_bigg
