Meh. Sex in games doesn't really add to the game, but then again it doesn't take anything away. I suppose it can let you see the world from that character's perspective. Sex is now the human species (and most animal species) propagates and is a perfectly natural function.

@ dvddesign
I was ready to comment on technology that might appear in the future that would allow for remote sexual interaction, but apparently the term for this is "Teledildonics" kind of a weird word actually...makes me think of a cell phone that is shaped like a dildo or something... LOL

I call Leisure Suit Larry to the stand!

Frankly I'm always surprised that we can kill, murder and destroy but a bit of pixilated tit and arse is going to far. If it fits in the game and builds on a story, injects humor or adds to the gaming experience I don't see why we should treat it any different to other content.

Personal I'm sick and tired of people trying to benefit society through censorship rather than education and understanding. I mean, what teenage boy hasn't seen a porno, whacked one off and can't help thinking about girl in class? But instead of approaching the subject like its normal, a very vocal group choose to tuck it away like they were never the result of a sexual act. What is worse, is a lot of their support is from people who are just too damn disinterested or lazy to actually care about their children.

Jelster, I bet Poopface Morty would completely agree with you on this one. I have to say that I do also.

Censorship is wrong. It's really as simple as that. It shouldn't matter if there's sex or what context it’s in. Of course, like how Jelster pointed out, there's also the old double standard of graphic violence being acceptable while sex isn't, which really shows how fucked up our culture is. I remember when Gamespot labeled “Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball” as one of the most “embarrassing” games of that year, going on to say that its creators pretty much pushed video games back five years. Their problem was that it allowed the gamer to look at girls in bikinis instead of punch, kick, and knock them into electric fences and out of windows. So, by their standards, it’s okay to get off on people being hurt or killed, but not okay to get off on girls prancing around in bikinis. Yeah, thanks, Gamespot, how high-minded of you. Ultimately, video games are art. There, I said it. They’re art and they deserve more respect. The problem is that they’re an immature art form. In order for video games to mature, we’re going to have to mature with them. Video games have definitely shown some growth over the past twenty years, but that still isn’t enough and game companies still tend to take advantage of their consumers. It shouldn’t matter how the game’s designers decide to contextualize their work, but it would be nice for more video games to present sexuality and nudity in a mature manner, instead of as a joke. The same goes for violence, and really any form of subject matter a video game decides to delve into. One of the current problems with video games is the lack of variety. There are few experimental video games, and not only that, but also most games tend to cater only to 13 to 30 year old males. It’s time to branch out and find other customers. I’m hoping that’s what the seventh-generation consoles will try to do. If the video game consumer base is broadened, then video games will eventually be accepted as art, and censorship will hopefully diminish and soon vanish altogether. I also agree with Jelster that the rating system for both video games and movies need a serious retuning.
