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.

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.
Jesus christ, just go and get laid.
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.
Also, Phillies rule, thanks for my new BlackBerry wallpaper.
Also shocked that we've gone this far without a "joystick" joke.
