I got into a big argument with friends who told me about the Bridget thing. Thing is... it is a girl. That chick in the middle is completely a girl and looks pretty hot for a cartoon drawing. I don't care if later on in the game it's revealed that she's really a dude, because it's just a fucking drawing!

It's not like on /b/ where dudes will dress up like chicks for months and then reveal their dick to the dismay of all. This is a CARTOON and it is whatever it is at the time.

@RPGr:
!
People not playing SnR makes me sad. :(

But then, I'm probably the only person I know who liked Virtual On that much, so I guess I should have got used to it by now. And you're right, the cover art was pretty crappy. :/

@Bichatse:

I actually haven't played the game yet. I never realized the first game came out (was waiting for it) till Kotaku put up the first batch of characters for number 2. I remember seeing the cover but thinking it was some crap FPS/Action game (the cover art is horrendous).

The bright side is I picked it up cheap.

BTW I have only played about 33% of the games I own. I think I collect games more than play them (not by choice, just don't have as much time) and as my handle suggests, ARRPEEGEEs come first.

I love the art, even if it lures you to fap for a trap.
Fapping to male characters like Bridget, Poison or... maybe one or two of those in the pic only makes you more hetero as I see it.

That unless you are fapping to a naked pic of them.

I refuse to believe that the one on the right is a man.

I also can't believe Cuilan's new clothes.

Lastly, I can't believe that I'm wondering whether he's wearing panties under that top.

As a side note, Cuilan and Fabian look a bit older, or at lat a little more mature... perhaps this game is set a few years after the previous one.

@Witzbold: You win, sir.

After playing the first Senko No Ronde (Wartech), I know the one on the left is Changpo, a 16 year old girl.

All I know is, if I had a 16 year old that wore that, she'd never be able to fly a shmupbot ever again.

Atheist Jew — Thu, 20 Dec 2007 20:15:54 MST

Normally the dudes that look like chicks have no tits, they're simply designed so that their clothing obscures their chest. It's safe to assume that the one on the left is a girl. The one in the middle is PROBABLY a girl. and the one on the left is probably a guy, being flat as a board that he/she/it is.
