Late to the party! My issues with this review is as someone said further up, it's clear the reviewer dislikes the genre, i don't mean he is a prude or dislikes ecchi but more this is a rails shooter game and his over use of "dull" for descriptive wording felt a bit bland in its self. I think most their points making it a bad game can be attributed to almost all on the rail shooter genre games which leads me to ask why he reviews a genre he hates, me reviewing a sports game will certainly end in a low score as i find them boring. HOTD was one of my favourite games and when nintendo got it i was so happy, sure most will call it a boring repetitive game but i loved that basic arcade style rail shooter. Playing this game, sure it doesn't feature multiple paths (though this is apparently fixed in later editions) felt average, it sure isn't special and certainly over priced, it's hardly "over sexualised" as most of the "Sexual content" is just a girl falling over moaning and a skirt slightly lifting - probably would work better with adults but still it feels very "teen" level of sexual content, it feature no actual elements beyond moaning. Some games feature full nude and sex, this is a kiss vs sex in a comparison. I would probably give it a "average", it's fun enough to enjoy on the hard mode, score attack is fun and i like the collection folder idea, seems a good method to add replay.
Objectively speaking i think many "negatives" raised in the comments (not the review, the review was bland and dull by reusing them very words, very uninspired) are valid though. Just don't shoot the rail shooter genre because it isn't COD.
