Video Games and Sex

This is nothing new. Porn, sex, nudity finds its way into everything one way or another! It’s as natural a conclusion as anything. But boy has it come a long way since “Custer’s Revenge.”

The makers of “Heavy Rain” already hinted that the player would have the opportunity to play as a “hot topless girl,” but what they left out is that after a magical unlocking she can be completely naked! And yeah, I’ve seen it…it’s pretty ridiculous. First of all, just the fact that she’s completely naked…is totally hot. This is no Lara Croft naked…this is CGI perfect naked. And the way she walks around is pretty incredible. I don’t really know what purpose this serves as I think I would completely get lost in watching her ass instead of playing the game. Yeah, the ass is that good.

But this isn’t the first time that a bit of sexuality has been thrown into the mix. Oh heavens no. Back in the olden days a fancy little game called “Custer’s Revenge” appeared for the Atari 2600. “Bachelor Party” and “Beat ‘Em & Eat ‘Em” soon followed. Granted there’s not a whole lot that can come across visually with the limited Atari graphics, but try they did. I remember a “Friday the 13th” game coming out as well…to try the platforms hand at blood and gore, to little success.

With higher-rez game consoles came more attempts to stimulate! “Bubble Bath Babes” and “Peek-A-Boo Poker” were hits on the Nintendo (NES), while the “Welcome to Pia Carrot” series made a name for themselves on the Sega Saturn and Dreamcast.

Now there’s boobs everywhere. It’s very rare that you don’t see at least a bit of cleavage in a video game. Not only are there boobs, but now they can bounce!

If you get a chance to see this full frontal in Heavy Rain, do it. It’s worth it, even as a very buoyant sign of the times.
