Softcore hentai.

...what?
I will also admit that I own a copy of the original Fate/Stay Night game that I got shipped to me from Japan. I loved the anime and decided to get the game for the full experience (even if it meant importing). It's in Japanese, but there are a few sites that have very good english language patches for it. Although I love the series for it's story and characters, it is technically a Dating Sim game (albeit a very well made one, Type Moon FTW!).
It's not a dating sim. Those are very specific types of games. <url=http://www.hentaineko.com/images_peek/crc_interface1.jpg>This is a dating sim. <url=http://free-game-downloads.mosw.com/ss/5160_3.jpg>This is a dating sim. Hell, even <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.148564-Neutral-Drow-reviews-Little-My-Maid>this is almost a dating sim. Tsukihime, Fate/Stay Night and the like are visual novels. I'm not normally so insistent on terminology, but "dating sim" is not only pretty inaccurate, it carries way, way more negative connotations, and I've kinda made it my stock-in-trade here to get people to play those games.

...wait, you actually imported a copy of Fate/Stay Night?! Holy crap, how much did that cost?

I'm actually curious. And it's distracting my inner Type-Moon fanboy from demanding incredulously why exactly you consider the absolutely phenomenal Fate/Stay Night to be a "guilty" pleasure...
Ok, technically you are right, since all of the in game relationships are dictated by plot and not personal input, it's a visual novel. I'm normally more of a terminology Nazi about this kind of thing too, but since I was running on about 2 hours of sleep when I made that post, it must have slipped my mind.

I think once shipping was included, it was about $80. You can get it on this website (Best import site on the net by the way)(it's gone up a bit in price, but that's to be expected)

I'd call it a guilty pleasure because I liked the series enough to not bother pirating a copy of the game and actually import it. Also, since it's technically a Hentai game (magnificent plot and characters aside), it falls into your category of guilty pleasure.

Yeah, I'm a major Type Moon Fanboy...

I can sympathize. It's usually these games that make me lose sleep...especially when I'm near the end of one and can't stop until 3 in the morning!

...yeah, that's about the price I remember for recently. It's the only game I actually had serious doubts about torrenting (right in the gray zone between "no other way to get this, so I download" and "readily available in legal form, so I buy"). When I had the option, it was about $75 without shipping, and a used copy anyway, so I went the torrent route.

And yeah, I know of J-List. Bought most of my eroge from them, in fact (including _>

Fuck yeah, Saber. Currently my favorite video game character ever. 'Course, I wind up having to defend my love for Sakura a lot more...

Have you tried Tsukihime, incidentally?

I've got it installed on my computer, but because of school I haven't gotten very far into it yet. Although I have played Melty Blood: Act Cadenza and loved it.

Michael Buble and Taylor Swift. My blasted little sister made me listen to them and now I can't stop.

I should be enraged by this, so why do I find it so amusing!?
I've asked myself the same question everyday since first seeing it. I think it's because watching Vader dance to "Can't Touch This" is both hysterical and amusing.

Voltaire.
It may be goth music, but it's awesome as hell!
EDIT: I'm not goth myself and I know my pic looks a little... depressing, but it looks completely different if you zoom in.

I'm trying to come up with one, but the only one I can think of is that I, a 21-year-old man, read the Princess Diaries series. But cinsidering all the cultural stuff I also read, that probably just makes me seem open-minded.

I know I've been inb4ed but I really don't take guilt in what I do.

Hmm.. I could come up with SOMETHING, though.

... Probably Dragon Ball Z, though It kicks ass.
