Feelings. They don't usually enter into the equation when your government assassin is slitting an enemy agent's throat. As you put your archeology-powered fist into his face, the only "feeling" you hope this Nazi has is "pain." Spartan warriors are too busy stabbing to address their "issues."

But we can't all be testosterone-fueled killing machine. Some of us are estrogen-powered killing machines!

Hearts Swords Flowers ( http://e23.sjgames.com/item.html?id=ELM-004 )  takes a look at the emotional side of dispatching your foes. It covers shojo-style gaming in Big Eyes, Small Mouth from head to toe. Be a wand-wielding preteen with a penchant for goofy sidekicks or a soul-bound warrior from a dying race of aliens that must Save The World (and graduate high school). Either way, you shall mercilessly crush your enemy underfoot and laugh as you rip his corpse asunder!

And then have a good cry when you realize that was your boyfriend. Whoops. Not again.
