It'd seem that the offshoot discussions of this thread are becoming just as sordid (if not more so) than the original subject, heh.

Beside that, the mix of mature age and girlish looks in her is a nice reference to many 40-something of these days...uhm, scary :?
Teresa is fake?! >_<#
*pokes Rando in the eye*

That's all fine and well if you like that sort of... size. And Chloe does look quite nice. Like I said though, I like my ladies a little more lean. Something like Lace or Shasta. ^_^

Now, if Cave made a more mature character that had the proportions of Kylie Minogue...

Damnit, and I tried so hard not to get sucked into this kind of conversation ^_^;;;

Eh, Chloe Vevrier sordid...?!

be careful on what you say, you :evil:

Beside that, Cave has done two games with a strong sexual tone. Psikyo did this before, but with a blatant humoristic approach (which i approve, personally). On the other hand, hard sci-fi like Tatsujin sounds a bit on the teenager side. Well, sex-based marketing too, but on the side that fears to download porn from the net. All in all, arcade games have a long history of sexual lures (i mean, c'mon, Mahjong games), but aside Psikyo, it was all about phallic symbols in R-type.

Beside that, i wonder the colour of Reko's pub...ehr, never mind.

(And yes, i can download my own porn, i don't need to fantasize about sprites.Gimme spaceships Cave, i can get tits by myself).

The question is: if a full-figured woman like Chloe Vevrier would show you a reko figure (even with no pants?!), who would you look at?
dk is lookin pretty hot (the transition from 2 girls w/big boobs to donkey kong was unexpected).
Ya, but it all goes back to what you were saying about age of consent for different countries. The game was made for the Japanese market where that kind of thing is the norm. For the US it's not right. I heard in Mexico the age of consent was 12. Some mexican guy told me. Either that's true and gross or he was lying to make himself not feel like a pervert for fucking 12-year-olds and that's even worse.

its been a while, but iirc some states/countries have separate ages for men/women, straight/gay, a bunch of random stuff. entertaining for the weird random stuff. (just put the url here, didnt check for mexico)
Teresa is fake?! >_<#
theyre just perky, and along with that tight outfit, well, you see the results.

I just looked at the link there. Yup, 12 is the legal age for a man to have sex with a woman (or should I say girl) in Mexico. That's just fucking sick.
