The above is a trailer for the PSP title Ikkitousen:Eloquent Fist, and provides more evidence as to why the PSP must be selling so well in Japan, as its full title may as well be Eloquent Fisting of Schoolgirls.
The gameplay actually looks cool, like an old-school sidescrolling beat 'em up, which happens to be one of my favorite types of games. Still, I'm not sure how much like an almighty pervert I'd feel if I dared to be seen playing this big boob festival on the bus.
God, you should all be ashamed of yourselves.
Moar: Reader Covah is telling me that this game (and the anime it's based on) is -- somehow -- inspired by my favorite book of all time, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I think my brain is going to explode in the comprehension of this new information, but now I kind of have to check it out to see how they managed to turn a 2000-year-old historical novel into a series of high school molestations.

oh, and it's actually called Ikkitousen, "elequent fist" is probably the sub title.
Fun fact for you Jim is that the story is based off the romance of the three kingdoms, so if you do enough research (wiki) and get the japanese names matched up with the chinese names, you can see whos who in Dynasty Warriors!
To respond to the edit, the series as a whole is loosely based off of Three Kingdoms. The premise is that there are multiple highschools with fighters who each have an earring that contains the soul, or spirt of one of the warriors, and it's their destiny to carry out what happened back then pretty much. The manga does this a lot more, but the three anime series (well first two, the third just came out yesterday) sorta lose their way.
A list of all the characters and their Three Kingdoms counterparts is compiled here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ikki_Tousen_characters . The main characters you follow through out the series are Sun Ce, Lu Meng (girl with eye patch) Zhou Yu, Zuo Ci, and Yue Jiu just to name a few. A separate school follows Liu Bei (girl with glasses,) Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun, again to name a few.
Early in the series Dong Zhuo is the main bad guy and the person who is Lu Bu is his girlfriend basically instead of adoptive kid. I think? I don't know. But they do changes stuff like instead of Lu Bu killing him, he kills himself.
Later on in the series Cao Cao becomes the main bad guy.
Like it said, its loosely based off of it, but in reading the manga its definitely there, they even have pages explaining what some of the warriors did.
Hey hey HEY! Don't get your history lessons in my boobies! If we want to play a game about the Three Kingdoms we can go play Romance the Three Kingdoms!
Oh and the girl who originally is Jia Xu fucks the guy Dong Zhuo then she fucks Cao Cao! She's a slut! But see, instead of "following" them, they just changed it to "fucks" and "sucks" them. I'm sorry I'm just having too much fun with this.
I'm really shocked you've never heard of Ikkitousen. Your sister site, Tomopop, features lots of figures from the series. Btw, if you want to get into it, the manga > the anime.
Is it as hentai as the prequel(?) Ikki tousen Great Guardians, cause that one is even 'worse'

hmmm, so from what everyone s saying, they want to watch the bouncing boobs for hours on end with the occasional FAP thrown in? Sounds like you want to watch the anime, not get bogged down in a side scroller when there are boobies to watch.
Seriously though, its a fun enough series and given that the 2 main focuses of the series are underdressed females and people kicking seven shades of shit out of each other I'd say its surprising that its taken this long to get a game out of it.
*looks at the two figures he has from the series, is slightly guilty*

...okay.
...And this is the only situation in which that statement could possibly be true.
I'm getting a PSP.
