Lensman's Description:
(Yes kids, we are finally doing it!) You are an obviously sick and evil man who gets off by harassing little innocent girls on the subway train. One day the unthinkable happens: one of the girls you assgrabbed starts screaming "pervert" and you get promptly arrested. Fortunately, you are a wealthy man with plenty of connections (like most evil perverts) and you get away with it by doing just one day in prison. But one day in jail is one day too many for you, dammit! You obviously have to teach this girl a lesson. And the best way is to rape her and her all-female family into submission. Hilarity does not ensue.
Skysenshi's Note: This game has been so controversial that it incited international outcry. Illusion Soft has long ceased distribution. You can read their message to their customers in foreign countries here.
Move along, people! >>> by Lensman (07.30.2010)
So here's how it goes: something that only a handfull of people know and care about offends you so you go on a long and costly campaign to get it banned. In the end you succeed but you end up making the "something" famous by giving it free publicity and making it more of a problem than it was to begin with. Eventually, people start to actively seek out the thing you banned in order to see what the fuss is all about. It goes viral, thanks to the beauty of 4chan and Internet piracy, and more people end up installing it on their hard drives than ever before. Great job moral guardian! Google "The Streisand Effect" next time before doing anything.
Yeah, rape is a very prevalent theme in Japanese dating games (AND Japanese pornography), and I am sure you can produce some sort of graph showing a co-relation between rape game sales and actual occurrences of rape in Japan. But, here's the thing: co-relation does not necessarily equal causation. If "A" (rape game consumption) is somehow co-related to "B" (actual occurences of rape) this doesn't mean that "A" causes "B" . It may also mean that "B" causes "A" (that people with rape tendencies find an outlet in rape games) or that there is a third factor "C" which causes both "A" and "B" (eg a culture that represses sexuality and promotes rape as "erotic"). By just banning a game, you don't solve anything. You might even make the problem worse by closing down an avenue of expression that prevented people with actual rape fantasies from actually acting it out in reality (Studies show that Pornography has a negative effect on the actual occurence of sex crimes). In order to be really effective, you have to look at the broader picture find the real cause of the problem and attack it accordingly.
Some people may also claim that while rape games have always existed in Japan, Rapelay is a "more realistic depiction of rape" and therefore more dangerous. Let's have a closer look at this claim, shall we?
Rapelay: You see a girl in a mini-skirt and you pray to God. The Almighty Lord rewards you by blowing a strong gust of wind on the highway which blows the girl's skirt upwards. Hallelujah, praise the Lord!
Real-lay: God fucking hates you. Your attempts to get down on your knees and pray cause the suspicion of the subway's security crew which promptly arrests you for being a religious extremist. You spend the rest of the afternoon getting closely acquiantated with officer Smith's gloved hand as he conducts a cavity search to see if you hide any explosives inside your rectum.
Rapelay: You invite a few friends over to gang-rape the girls.
Real-Lay: You have no friends. If you did, you would probable be able to get laid in a normal way and not have to resort to playing Rape Games. In the unlikely scenario that you actually do, and persuade them to come over, the girls will keep teasing you about how much more proficient and hung they are.
Rapelay: If you get a girl pregnant, you can easily make her have an abortion. If you don't do it the girl pushes you under a train.
Real-Lay: What's the fun in pushing you under a train when you can pay child support instead. Have fun being a financial slave for the the next 20 years asshole.
Rapelay: You can easily get away with brutal rape due to your connections.
Real-Lay: Tell that to a guy named Strauss-Kahn. Even if you do manage to get away with rape in this post-feminist, post-Duke era there's this little bit called "Vigilante Justice". The girls pay 200 bucks for someone to break your legs and stomp on your balls for good measure.
Rapelay: You get to rape a girl while in reverse-cow position.
Real-Lay: Consider the physics for just a second. She's on top, you're flat on your back. It's physically impossible to restrain and rape someone while doing this. Who writes this stuff?
To cut a sad story short, if you go out and start raping girls just because you saw it in a video-game, you obviously have some serious issues and you rightly deserve all the hell's punishments that will inevitable come your way.
OK, rant over. I'm supposed to be reviewing this, aren't I?
If you follow the hype you know what the game's all about. You are a sick rapist plain and simple and your goal is to "break" the girls of the game by having them do various stuff. For instance, managing to bring a girl to orgasm in less than 30 seconds in public triggers the "Shame" indication, while managing to talk the girls into doing something triggers the "Talk" one. Once all indication are lit, the girl is "broken" and you can do what you want with her. Break two girls and you get to have a threesome with them. Break all three and you can mix and match as you like...
And that's about it. That's all there is to the game. There is no ending, no reward. You just get to rape the girls over and over and over until you are sick of it.
The 3D graphics are still looking great today, and the boob-physics are always a pleasure to watch. The voice-actresses do a terrific job of screaming help, faking orgasms and pretending to lick stuff. So it's a good fap game at least.
But seriously, what's the point? There's ton of better (and more offensive) stuff out there, that at least have endings and meanings that this game certainly doesn't have. Why play a 2GB game that eats up resources and hard drive space when you can (illegaly) download and English-Patch something like Dark Love instead? Sick as it may be, at least it has a climax and a conclusion to the whole story.
Move along people, there's really nothing to see here. This game isn't even worth its downloading time. If you want to illegally download a banned game worth playing try playing Terranigma instead*.
*Terranigma was actually released in Europe and Australia but not in the USA due to its heavy religious subtext, which actually plays a major part in the plot. This is also why it's not out on the Virtual Console. Seriously though, it's a great action-RPG with one of the most poignant endings in Gaming History. Play it NOW!!!

, actually. I believe that she instills discipline so that her kids will grow up to be responsible adults that do not think the world owes them everything. This, however, is the other side of Tiger Mom's upbringing...though I think this is more the result of the Tiger Mom (German) + Tiger Dad (Japan) combo.
