Oh wow. They even have a demo for this game. Looks like the "no pants hour" will come early tonight!

oh, wait, I forgot about the whole point of this article.

I think he makes a good point. I don't think it's right to edge out porn in video games. It's just going to start (or already has?) a black market for it, then you have a whole bunch questionable software being thrown around that can't be controlled. It's not a smart move. Porn is porn, accept it and move on.

This game is exactly why AO titles aren't taken seriously or marketed with mainstream games.

And, quite frankly, the trailer for it made me feel like my creepy uncle's friend who doesn't bathe made a pass at me. So weird.

While I don't particularly support the mainstream sale of "porn games", I think it's ridiculous that, being an adult, I can't play an AO game. I was pretty pissed about Manhunt 2 when they had to tone down the violence to get an M rating instead of AO. I hate other people deciding what I can or can't play.

Well, looks stupid and slightly disturbing, but no worse then those Hentai ones and people buy them. Which brings up a point, they already sell porn games via importing, why shouldn't they be able to sell them to those who want them?

Sounds like a poor man's Bonerquest.

I think banning almost any sort of game is pretty brainless so I'm all for porn games but they also seem pretty brainless. Porn + two-handed activities = miserable failure.

so basically (mr.sadistic) says he will be offing himself to a.i tonight....hmmm

2:10 - 2:30 cracked me up, sorry.

There's more to AO than porn games, remember. Indigo Prophecy was censored in North America (on consoles - they did sell the uncensored PC version online) to avoid the dreaded AO rating but left uncensored in Europe.

I find it endlessly irritating that video stores will happily stock "unrated" or NC-17 movies but no store will ever touch AO games - even if they aren't pornography!

@ Atlas

Yes, we are both going to hell.

Haha, Nintendo 64 sex game lololol.

That was actually a really well put together trailer. The voice acting was good too. I'm not really into porn games, but I am against banning any kind of game, and I hate the current rating system. My biggest complaint: developers are reluctant to allow you to kill children. I'm fucking sick of that! If I want to blow a child's head off in Fallout 3 I should be able to. I don't want to have to wait for GECK to come out.

"In BoneTown we live by the Three F’s, Fucking, fighting, and getting fucked up."

The AO revolution begins now... -__-

Seriously though, it has been said on numerous occassions that adult media of this nature should be allowed its share of it's particular (albeit niche) market without any opposition as long as they remain within the constraints of the law and ensure that they take measures that their product will pre-dominantly land into the possession of legal consenting adults. With that in mind, there really is no need to take great measures in order to hinder the progress of this particular industry. In fact, it is detrimental to software developers as a whole.

However, it is understandable that every major console manufacturer is against licesencing such products for their systems. After all, they have a general image to uphold. That image being (for some more than others *cough* Nintendo) of accessibility and electronic entertainment that relates to a wide audience young and old. The existence of media of a pornographic nature developed for use on their consoles would most likely, close up doors to potential clients & customers. Not that pornographic media would be the only option, but the fact that it is an option at all would leave a bad taste in the mouths of some consumers. How serious such media would effect sales I could not say. It could go either way from a possible marginal decrease in sales to the rampant accessibility of said media developing into a very lucrative cash cow (seeing as how the adult entertainment is a multi-billion dollar industry).

The fact is, such material still leaves a black mark in the eyes of many and I just don't think that the major console developers are willing to risk the possible tarnishing of their reputation in order to tap into that particular market.

(BTW. Night Trap does not count. I'm sure it came to mind for at least a few of you.)

Personally, I'm all for the development and advancement of adult oriented videogames. However, this example in particular I do not feel is exactly a shining example of the genre and do not think it is of "the right stuff" so to speak to be the herald of this new era of gaming.

To be frank, it really is rather shit. The combination of sex, pot jokes, and toilet humor is very two dimensional and contrived. It really does make Leisure Suit Larry look like game of the year material.

No, an usher of this golden age of porn games it is now. I guess we're all still relying on the Japanese for our quality fix of tentacle rape and anal violation of 14 year old girls/boys/(insert family member of choice here) but oh to dream. Oh yeah, and bukkake.

Reaprar: How fucking dare you!? Bonerquest is ART.

BoneTown and BonerQuest are two fundamentally different games . . . one has a little class.

I think Sexual AO games have a serious market. There's people that want to make them, and people that want to play them.

I do wish that games didn't require certification for console manufacturer content compliance. I certainly want a game to work on my machine if its supposed to, but I'm not a fan of console maker content censorship. I kinda loathed codemasters (or code-something) as a kid, for side stepping Nintendo's certification and releasing ridiculously bloated, unauthorized games. But looking at as an adult a really wish that this all ran a bit more like tape and disc media players, wherein anything that meets tech spec runs on it.

ALSO COCKS.

lmao best trailer ever.

BoneTown... do want.

If it doesn't include SecuROM, I'd buy it before Spore.

Also, Jewish titties 4tw.

I always considered AO a name for an extra special and NSFW M rated game. It basically just means an M rated game that major retailers are too afraid to stock.

That commercial was fairly entertaining, actually.

Also I posted a comment about a similar topic for the last Podcast but it was ignored as a bonerquestion. :(

Looks brilliant! ahha and so funny at that! haha

Meh, porn games? Why not just actual porn? I doubt this is very 'satisfying' and it probably doesn't pass the one-hand test.
