And by "real girlfriend" I mean Real Kanojo, an upcoming title from Illusion Soft, better known to most English-speakers as "The RapeLay guys."
It seems they've held off from causing immediate controversy and settled for trying - and failing - to claw their way out of the Uncanny Valley, this time with this freakish CGI woman.
I must say though that at least from the specs, Real Kanojo is an impressive technical achievement. The game supports full 3D graphics (the funky-glasses kind), Windows 7, multicore processing, widescreen monitors, and full-on motion-sensing technology. And I don't mean that Love Death 4 weak sauce, either. Webcams track the player's face and movements. The girl's animations are fully motion-captured as well.
And as above, you can poke her in the nose. Also squeeze her cheeks, and - this being a game from Illusion Soft - all sorts of NSFW deeds. Move over, Project Natal, this is PC gaming at its...err...best?
Is this the ultimate evolution of Illusion's other woman-simulators, such as Sexy Beach and Artificial Girl? Or is it just the slutty version of Love Plus? I'm not sure. I mean, she looks kinda-sorta similar to a real 3-D disgusting pig.That hurts her cosplay options! Check below for a gallery, and a decidedly inappropriate (and obviously work-unsafe) gameplay video courtesy of Kotaku.
It will be awesome if you can scan you GF's face into tha game and tentacle rape her. I mean, naturally I wouldn't ever think of it, but I'm sure there are some people who would. Like someone other than me. Not me.
People can always mock stuff like this, but the funny thing is that it seems like perverted stuff such as this always help propel technology even further. God bless pervs. :P
lol, Illusion. Always the one you can turn to for a laugh. Looks like they've completely abandoned any resemblance of a traditional genre (A-GA was an action game...WITH LIGHTSABERS) to just cater to the "poke this girl and she will giggle among other things" people.
Linux saw me reading this post and issued a firm and justified response of "Um, no". Its usual objections included "I have a headache" and "You're not putting WINE on me just for this freaky dookie".
Don't get me wrong - some anime and some manga can be fun. But Japan has developed a problem, in fact, more than one type of problem.
I don't want Japan to go back to the bad old days of Bushido and Emperor Worship, but they're becoming a bit bizarre. Granted, young people in the West are becoming drunken yobs (at least in Queensland they are), and that's no better of course.
It's just that Japan used to be such a sane society. Now I'm afraid their losing their minds. It's sad to see.
Indeed pervs and their desires have financed technologies to greater heights/success.
Does this mean the Skynet of the future, the A.I. that attempts to wipe us from the face of the earth, does not do so out of self preservation, as would be expected of a threatened A.I. born from military/strategic applications, but out of revenge, from a newly self aware A.I. born from the dating/molestation under-age girlfriend simulators. Hell hath no fury like an artificial woman scorned/molested.
We're doomed

The weird thing about Japan is that they are obsessed with pretty much every weird fetish there is in their porn, but they also apparently aren't getting very much in real life. It's gotten so bad that the government is pretty much on the verge of paying people to have sex with each other and have children, and women will pretty much marry the first foreigner who steps off the boat because so many of the men would rather just read a dirty comic book than date her.
Of course this is my rather ignorant foreigner's assessment of the information that has little research behind it. However, as an outsider looking in, it's not that hard to make such an assessment.
They should spend less time about trying to make a game that acts like a real person and encourage more people to actually experience face-to-face interaction. This is just getting creepy.
Wait a minute? Will this be like sexy beach? I still wish the textures would be more realistic, as well as having *Ahem* "motion-capture" sequences. <3
My theory on Japan is; During WWII they were this massive noble empire, until they were bombed and had to surrender which emasculated them. So now, in all their weird fetish acts, it's always something really cute and meek being violated by some weird Japanese dude. So this is their sick way of trying to feel dominant again. That whole country needs to go through therapy or something. Grow up Japan it was 60 years ago, move on with your lives.

My mating partner much be a worthy adversary, be it man or machine.
but strangely interesting too :p
Porn is what ultimately caused vhs to win the format war and I think blu-ray did the same. So pervs are totally key to advancing technology :P
And play them all at the same goddamned time.
lol, Japan.
I'm going to have a great day at work. Thank you, Josh.
Want!
In Japan there isn't much difference is there?

Am I doing it wrong? Maybe I just need to find myself a better one...

In Japan? Yes you can.
but nose is fine too
Also, she has bizarrely low, saggy boobs.
