I think we\u2019re just a tweak away from one of them putting out a solo music album. And yes, I don\u2019t think pornstars in video games is far behind, or actually, based on that news, maybe it\u2019s already here. Of course, the big question is, do consumers see this as a problem? I\u2019m guessing that many don\u2019t, provided the products are still rated appropriately. But are we crossing an invisible line? Are there even any lines left to cross in this society? I dunno\u2026 I\u2019d be a lying, elitist nimrod if I said I\u2019ve never watched porn, and I\u2019m in no position to lecture. But I\u2019m not lecturing; I\u2019m merely making a statement of fact, and then following it up with a question: adult entertainment will most certainly become a larger and larger part of the video game industry in the future, and is this a bad thing, regardless of ratings?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Pretty much spot on, but I still think it will be anime that paves the way.  Ghost in the Shell; something that will seem more innocent than outright porn.  Within two or three years, adult games are coming to a PS3 near you (probably via Blu-ray).<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am not sure if porn and videogames go hand-in-hand (make your own damn puns), but I do know that it is a matter of time before some of the more adult oriented Japanese anime makes it into a US videogame.
