Chulip Kisses America On Valentine's Day
Five years ago today, Chulip was released in Japan on the PS2. Many media sources, print and on-line, covered this import title because of the sheer bizarreness of the premise. It was hyped to Katamari Damancy proportions and would often be described as Grand Theft Auto with kissing. It was soon announced that Chulip would be localized for American consumers. Alas, the game fell off the pending release date lists and would be forgotten about for another three years.
Fortunately, it seems Natsume has finished translating all 50 multi-platform Harvest Moon titles, and will finally release Chulip on Valentine’s day as a Gamestop and EB Games exclusive title.
In Chulip, you move into a small town that has an ancient legend of a magical tree that will grant you eternal love if you kiss your lover underneath it. You must build your reputation as a citizen by helping out fellow townies, and hopefully reach your goal of snogging the girl you have your eyes set on. Eerily similar to my ultimate goal in life, with some minor variations.

So your character has to be straight? Bleh.
My thoughts exactly.
Must get this game! The trailer looks great. That would be a really sweet Valentine, for your special someone.
Oh dear. I may need to possess this.
