This is the second installment of the Virtual Cameraman series. You are
still an aspiring photographer trying to get some good looking
models in front of your camera. If your photographic skills and smooth
talking can convince them they may show you more than just their smiles.
Eh... OK. Believe it or not but they really did make a whole series of
games out of this.
After a multiple-choice type conversation with your prospective model
she'll either agree or turn you down. If she goes along she'll start
posing for you and you can snap pictures (A) and advance the film (L and
R a few times). Certain poses are worth more points but risqué poses may
deduct points from your total. After the session your photographic
talent gets evaluated and you have the chances to save the good shots.
Depending on your score you advance to the next session.
Graphics off the disc are very good and nicely combined with the
foreground graphics generated by the control pack. The video is smooth and switching between the scenes
is instantaneous. The saved pictures display individual frames off the
disc - pretty impressive. The video sequences are arranged in straight chapters
so you'll be able to watch the disc on a regular (non-LaserActive)
player should you be that desperate. Sound is a bit simple and minimal.
Overall not as bad as expected, the three models (Ari Ando, Yumika
Sugimoto and Shiori Fujitani) are reasonably attractive but the game
play is pretty thin. |
