Company unveils first Kinect 3D sex game
Summary: The Kinect, from Microsoft, has been out for less than two months, and already, an adult game company has produced a demo using the motion controller in a 3D sex game.
Just more than two weeks ago, one of the world's leading experts on sex and video games said that while there were not yet working adult games using Microsoft's Kinect motion controller, the potential was there. That barrier has been broken, as one game company illustrates in a demo for a new game.
The demo (a NSFW YouTube video) comes from ThriXXX software, a maker of 3D role-playing sex simulation games, which said in a statement today that "the open-sourcing of device drivers for Kinect have enabled the...device to be used directly from connected PCs operating on Windows 7...The Kinect interface provides another exciting interface option for users of the sex simulation software to control the experience in extraordinary new ways. Controller-free is the next generation of game user interfaces, allowing users to use gestures, spoken commands, or objects to control in-game action that creates a completely new sex game activity and magical experience."

The demo shows that the Kinect is suitable for fairly well controlled hand gestures and that those gestures can be incorporated into a sex game. Without being too graphic, it's clear that the game makers imagine that players will be using the Kinect to interact directly with women (for now) in the game.

I am having a bit of trouble.......
getting my mind around how this would work in practice, as well as why the heck I would choose a Kinect sex game over the real thing. Maybe I am getting old.
I can think of 2 reasons
[i]why the heck I would choose a Kinect sex game over the real thing[/i]
1. Kinect is also much more hygienic than sex!
[i]Maybe I am getting old.[/i]
2. Kinect never gets disappointed when you can't get it up.
Hygienic sex?
Now there is an oxymoron.
As for your point 2, the fact that it still works, is all the more reason to pass on this game. ;-)

Nah... Never gonna happen...
There is no feedback... At least with a WII you have a speaker on the remote and the stupid thing vibrates... With Kinect you are dry humping air... hmmm... On second thought, this could give all those wankers something other than the air guitar... But like the air guitar, I still don't want to see it.
Are you still sporting that gay @ss Zod/Superman II avatar??? Cyberslammer2.. Dude.. That avatar is gayer than Lovecock Davidson and Non Zealot on a friday night.

Hey I resemble that!
Perhaps you could publish your adress so 13 million people could DPS your ass.
Watching me.
Hey, if I can't trust my local sex game designers, who can I trust?
