    On the subject of nudie games, even though I'm not a fan of these, I really REALLY wish I would have bought Bubble Bath Babes and Peek A Boo Poker for the NES. I saw them being sold in a bargain bin at a shop that was phasing out their NES games years ago. I think they wanted 5 dollars a piece for each boxed and everything.

    I see them fetching crazy prices on Ebay now and kick myself for having not bought them cheap when I had the chance.

    I think an issue with this debate/discussion is that it's really too broad a topic. There's as many sub genres of h-games as there are regular genres.

    There's the dedicated nearly plot less simulators which usually fit the bill of being both creepy and disturbing. There's the tacked on games that vary between decent admirable titles and stock filler but they usually just throw images/video at you between levels. Then the final and probably the most *respectable* of the sub-types which is the visual novel styled games and are the genre I'll briefly touch on.

    Occasionally the visual novel games succeed in being both mature in themes and imagery rather then sluty sideshows/renders. Funnily enough one of the main problems is that games translated into English are usually brought across based on their content so the more debasing and hardcore the content will be more likely to be brought over because it's got a better chance of competing and selling in the US/Non-Asian pornographic markets. This is of course due to pre-convictions and notions of what such a thing should contain and that the story is in all cases tacked on (which is not always the case).

    Thus in this way the more cleverly written and better stories have little chance of competing against those titles. I use to play a few titles years ago and during that time you could find a few genuinely interesting English translated stories. In my opinion they're out there and they can be worth a play through if you're curious.

    Also...Battle Raper is freaking atrocious. Survival Arts has better gameplay...and that's...really really really sad.

    I played some over the years, but got tired of it. Most hentai adventures and rpgs are just too boring. The only ones with replay value are the Mahjong games IMHO.

    The Sagara Family: You are Yusuke, a young man who's about to go into college. You are sent off by your father to board with his friend's family to make things easier. To your surprise however, his friend's family -- the Sagara family -- is comprised solely of beautiful girls. There's the sexy widowed mother Maria, and then there's her four daughters: the demure Arisa, the feisty Sanae, the mysterious Emiru, and the playful Ruruka. You'll be living with these ladies from this day on, and you'll soon find out that in the Sagara family, almost anything goes...

    The best character in the is by far Emiru, she's a shy, expressionless girl who ignores Yusuke most of the time and she secretly enjoys cosplay.

    I could find a detailed plot summary for X-change but basically is about this: You are Takuya Aihara, a student specializing in chemistry, and then you are transformed into a girl. The X-change series has 3 games, and 2 spinoff games called Yin-Yang! X-Change Alternative.

    Probably the most pathetic genre that exists in gaming.

    Do flash hentai games count? Sorry to sound like a broken record, but what about stuff like ZONE? There's no roleplay or anything, its just an animation that changes depending on stuff you click, like all Hentai Zone flashes.

    lol, you're probably right. Theres enough Loli Mah-jong games to make Madden shit his pants in fucking horror. God I love that quote!:lol:

    Does Gals Panic count? I played that rather good Qix clone a few times in the arcade. The "hentai" part of it is rather sub-par though. :)

    Gals Panic is one of my favourite puzzle games for all time. Too bad Gals Panic SS is not Hentai at all (it even got a green "free for everyone" rating in Japan), so I will have to buy an arcade PCB someday :D
    The GP S1-3 games have a lot more to offer you regarding that aspect :)

    You know, I never really could understand why some people like to spank it to cartoon characters. Just does nothing for me.

    Plus, someone had to actually draw these. I never could draw people having sex without feeling dirty inside.

    Same feeling with playing a game like this, just do not understand the appeal. I'd rather just watch real porn.

    you think too much with your dick mate.

    ontopic, forgot about the gals panic games, some of my fave "puzzle" games definetly.

    RongRong is a great arcade-mahjong game aswell.
    (its not actually mahjong but rather that game where you match bricks in a pile whatever its called?)

    I don't play them (that means when I play them which is about once a year) to replace pron. I play them to get "adult entertainment" :p
    If ordinary games are a theme park, hentai games are Shinjuku at night.

    This genre just isn't to my personal tastes. I don't find the images a turn-on (and as a woman, they generally aren't aimed at me anyway), and if I want to see two people having sex I'll keep the light on :)

    I do however like Tokimeki, Hiiro no Kakera, Sakura Taisen and so on; so I'm open to a similar genre, but when I see what could be a cool adventure game only to find out the girls of indistinct age are going to be undressing for me at some point it goes straight out the (virtual) shopping basket.

    Obviously :) we are talking about games that do actually have a gameplay, even tought there's a strong sex element.

    i'd like to play tokimeki and similar, but sadly language is a big barrier so far.

    BTW i think that such games aimed at girls do exist, tought i never saw/played one... what are the differences?

    I have no idea I'm afraid, as I've not looked. Personally, one of the biggest barriers for me is that there's no real way of telling if you're about to buy a mature game that just happens to feature people having sex, or if you're about to install Tentacle Boys From Mars.

    I would be willing to try a properly mature game that told a decent story that at some point featured two adults having consensual sex, but it just doesn't seem possible - it's as though as soon as you feature naked woman in a game, they have to have ridiculous breasts and yo-yo knickers.
