Players "help" the fighters by wiping off sweat, treating injuries or giving "massages." The game's out this month, and that's the game's producer decked out in Duel Love gear.

Despite rumors to the contrary, being the resident gay dude I do not enjoy wiping the sweat off of high school boys. But when I heard there was a game where you could do such a thing I had to go try it out, mostly because I just had to see what is was about and also because no one else wanted to. More »
