I'd love to have some BOYxBOY games released, or at least have boy/boy pairings as an option in the games. There have been girl/girl relationships in some games so I'm hopeful that there will be something for boys who like boys someday too.

So i think the reason why there aren't a lot of boy boy games being released is because maybe a lot of us are girls and don't want to play a boy(marketing?)? Dunno?#3 by witchboy - Apr 25 2009

BoyxBoy games are a HUGE hit among girls. AND they are not meant to be played by boys only, they usually have got some really well-developed romantic plots.Naiomi666:

The problem with the first two is that violence and rape play a big part in the stories, especially in Enzai. There are also a couple of characters who are listed as 18, but it is pretty apparent that the game designers themselves did not intend them to be that old. I'm fairly certain that the age change was made by the English translators in order for the game to be sellable in the English speaking market.#6 by Naiomi666 - May 23 2009

Believe me, a lot of girls (me included) prefer Yaoi and Shounen-ai over the common girlxboy games because seeing two guys together means twice the hotness. These games are most definitely not played by boys only. I am a straight girl and I love boys-love games because of what I have said before.
There are some BoyxBoy games out there that are translated in english, mostly Visual-Novels...
Enzai: Falsely Accused
Absolute Obedience
Togainu no Chi
Death Note: Poisoned (and its upcoming sequel: D.Nd: Infected)
Shira Oka (It's a BxG game but if I reckon correctly you may end with a boy)

I'm straight as a line, but I also play Yaoi games. <_< Only cause my girlfriend got me into them. I've played Enzai and Absolute Obedience. They were both rather good. I enjoyed Enzai for the music, the characters, and the plot. And I enjoyed AO for the characters and the endings to the missions.#9 by Sara - Nov 19 2009
Eh, I've seen many straight guys like Yaoi before, even the hardcore kind.Kunnaki:

Ohhh by the way, I am actually part of a team that is translating Prince Maker: Braveness right now (it is doujin a game with the same gameplay as Princess Maker, but with some shounen-ai/yaoi undertones - if you want you might get some BxB endings), I am the image/video editor, and the patch is almost ready, so I'll keep you guys updated if you're interested.
#13 by witchboy - Dec 15 2009
The Prince maker trailer looks promising the art is pretty keep us informed!#14 by Kunnaki - Dec 31 2009
Eh, I've seen many straight guys like Yaoi before, even the hardcore kind.Harcore Yaoi? Hmm... never really seen that. To be honest, Enzai and Absolute Obedience are the only Yaoi games I've ever really played, cause I never really found others that were good like those two. And the only Yuri game I've ever really played that can be considered Yuri is, Raidy: The Lightning Warrior.
I also like Yuri (GirlxGirl), if it's done tastefully. If the story is good, why not?
I am most definitely not against the h parts when it comes to yaoi. They can be really, really hot (even though I'm not into things like shota, or girly-boys, and these are so common!), and they're one of the reasons why I prefer Yaoi instead of the usual kind (BxG; GxB).
Do you like Yaoi anime as well? I've met this guy who loves Junjou Romantica (and I love it too, the story is so great, better than most "straight" romance animes I've watched). Another one that boys seem to really enjoy is Ai no Kusabi (which is my personal favorite), since the story is also really interesting and it has many sci-fi elements.

You don't consider the Enzai game to be hardcore? I've played the game and it's full of tons of kinky non con and flat out rape around every corner, and that's just with the good characters. I'm terrified of what you consider hardcore
#16 by Kunnaki - Jan 2 2010
No, I consider the game hardcore, but I don't consider the anime hardcore. The game, itself, was all right but I didn't really pay much attention to the sex scenes. Honestly, I was just more interested in the story, which is kind of weird, I know.witchboy:

#17 by Sara - Jan 2 2010
I was talking about hardcore games - yes, I found Enzai and AO to be pretty hardcore.
My favorite yaoi story is still Ai no Kusabi. I'm into the softcore stuff, and while Ai no Kusabi can get kinky at times (well, it's a slavery dom/sub story) the sex scenes aren't that explicit. But that might change in the new OVA series that's coming out this year.#18 by Kunnaki - Jan 3 2010
You disliked AO and Enzai? That's a first. Never met someone who disliked those games, since they're probably the only well-known Yaoi games in America. But then again, I can't really say since those are the only ones I've ever really played. But then again, wasn't there a Gothic game that was set during the Medieval Period? I think that was a Yaoi game, but I'm not really mistaken. But the name of the game, slipped my mind at this moment.#19 by Sara - Jan 4 2010
Really? I've met some other Yaoi fans that didn't like them. I wasn't even able to finish them. :SKunnaki:

AO is dark? How so? If anything, most of the endings were comical and cute. Enzai, I'll agree, was dark. The fact that some of the characters were totured, made it a dark game. My girlfriend enjoyed it, and showed it to me, and I found it quite good. I did my best to make sure I didn't reach the wrong endings.#21 by witchboy - Jan 6 2010
Enzai does have a great story, but I found the sex pretty disturbing since the only ukes are shoatas. I'm still traumatised by the mop scene lol#22 by Kunnaki - Jan 6 2010
This is the best I could find on Enzai's walkthrough. Its still pretty discriptive: http://desu.moy.su/texts/Enzai.txt#23 by witchboy - Jan 7 2010
Thanks for the link. Guys and Io - two Ukes togather, how would that work lol. There's apparently a LOT of the game I haven't seen yet.#24 by Sara - Jan 7 2010
Ah, well, I actually liked some of the storylines in AO but found some to be quite dark. I've played it a long time ago, right when it came out, and I was probably underage, now that I think of it. XDKunnaki:

And yes, that was the game I was thinking of. I tried playing it, but I just couldn't get into it, like I did with AO and Enzai. My girlfriend tried it, but she got bored of it too. I hope they put some new Yaoi games up soon. I'd enjoy playing a mixture of AO and Enzai.
And Silver Chaos? I've heard of it, but never actually tried it. How is it?
The more people are interested in the project, the sooner it's going to be finished.

Is Prince Maker an official game series, like Princess Maker, or fan games?
#26 by hanako - Jun 9 2010
How on earth do you get Shira Oka anyway? I couldn't find a place to buy it or dl it. Or is it not out yet? XDIt's been in development forever, to the best of my knowledge it's still not out.
#27 by Muse - Jun 9 2010
Ah, thank you very much for the information! I really appreciate it. Such a shame; I hope it doesn't fall into the abyss of "never gets released." But you never know, sometimes things just get delayed a bit.hanako:

Considering the endless years of development time and expense they've put into it, they may be holding out trying to find a publisher, because they're going to have a very difficult time paying back their costs selling on their own. But that's just a guess, I have no idea!
