Are the PSP Corpse Party games good?
I've been seeing it in the PSN store and wondering.

Well I like them.  It's kind of niche though...well if you like playing high production value RPG Maker horror games with many many bad endings...I was a fan of Clock Tower so I really like games like this.  Aoi Oni would be an example of a terribly cheap budget version, but that's free at least.

Or really recently, Ib.  That's free too.

Corpse Party has really awesome music too.  The OPs aren't half bad either.
Just a random example, music spoilers I guess
I have to share another

SOUL OF STEEL

My personal favorite is the last chapter's main theme.  Because I just really really enjoy that kind of "okay let's get our shit together and overcome the odds".

The music progression is great.

I'm kinda pissed off right now. I liked the manga of Rosario+Vampire, and I noticed the anime on Netflix. I said "Sure, why not?" You want to know why I'm pissed off?
Panty shots. Tons of panty shots. They also turned it into a lighter and softer romantic comedy. But mostly because of the panty shots.

This is why I never finished it, and use it as an example of how not to do anime.
It's 80% fanservice with an unlikable protagonist who has half the women in the world trying to bed him.

Yep Cybersix was shown in the US for a bit and was one of my favorite shows (and was my favorite show at the time)

It is rather depressing but oddly enough if rarely capitalises on its more depressing aspects (Beta 7)

Clannad was super special in that it started as having an unlikable protagonist with a forgettable harem, but ended with him growing into a much more mature and better person.

This is kind of okay.

I really enjoy the character design though, it beats generic.

Oh, and it has Freddie Mercury.

I just realized that Cybersix is on MAL. That is the coolest thing.

I don't know if it aired in the US or not, so it might not be that popular, but jeeze if it isn't one of the most memorable shows of my childhood.

And it's totally short too, so I can urge everyone to go watch it. [Although it'll be a lot better if you're like, 10 years old.]

Hey wait.
I remember that show. Somewhat. From so many years back.
Taz you just nostalgia'd the hell out of me, making me remember a bunch of stuff I watched as a little'un.

So a friend of mine recommended something to me called "When They Cry"?

But, uhh, she had this really sadistic tone when she was talking about it, and kept insisting I watch it with a smile on her face.

So... Should I watch When They Cry?

I'll be honest. It's meant to screw with your head and it's quite gory. Watch it if you don't mind some mental scarring.

Also be sure you watch it late at night with the lights off.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
