SexBox: new console for playing AO-rated games photo

Oh my. A San Jose, CA-based company called Silicon Xtal Corporation has registered the name "SexBox" in the US, saying it will be used for "a video gaming console comprised of computer hardware with unique controls, which plays Adult-Only rated (AO) videogame software titles."

So yeah. That happened.

While I do applaud the company's efforts in the interest of free speech and allowing people to play whatever they damn well please, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that Microsoft hasn't heard about this yet. When they do, I think it's safe to say they won't be in the mood to laugh at puns.

As if the above description weren't enough, the company goes on to say that the device may be used to connect online to massively multiplayer games and other forms of adult entertainment. Porn MMO? This will be an interesting development to follow, to say the least. Also, "unique controls" will most likely mean ... ha ... hahaha.

Holy shit. I don't even know what to think. So many questions popping up in my head.

I do see it as a smart move and all the anti-videogames and anti-porn industry movements, which probably are from the same camp, are gonna be thrilled to see this.

I predict Wiisales with equal level quality games.

Why would Microsoft care? They own the rights to Xbox and "Shitbox" as well as "3 shitty" and even "Shitbox 3 shitty" but Sexbox? I doubt even Microsoft could do anything about that one

What the fuck is the big deal with sex games? Are these people so desperate that they need to go to the lengths of making a console just to watch some sexual animations?

Jesus christ, just go and get laid.

This is certainly going to be fuel to add the fires of retarded scientists and politicians everywhere, but this is also a pretty laughable, disturbing concept so as long as the torches are heading that way I don't care.

I get laid, I still like to look at porn. Pixelated or otherwise('otherwise' being a wide variety of things).

They should call it the SexBox 360... or 369.

It's sad that this is basically a computerised sex toy and yet will probably be considered a better console than the Wii.

I don't see why there should have to be a special console just for AO games. Are there special DVD players that only play porn DVDs?
