They must be thrilled up in Redmomd. :D

NEWSER) – It took them more than a month, but the adult gaming industry has managed to crack Kinect and use it for interactive porn. Sex simulation gaming company ThriXXX has released a demo showing how the motion-controlled gadget for Microsoft's XBox gaming system can be used for porn pleasure, ABC News reports. ThriXXX says its demo shows there's plenty of kinky possibilities with Kinect, although it doesn't have permission from Microsoft to create games, and its demo was created with help from hackers.

"The Kinect is obviously a natural technology for this kind of usage, since the 'hands-free' approach means that the user's hands are available for other actions, be it manipulating the game, or themselves-—or, in this case, possibly both at the same tiime," a sex tech expert tells CNET. Microsoft, however, says the XBox is a family-friendly console and it plans to keep it that way. Click to watch a demo and hear one writer's take on why interactive porn can be pretty unsexy.

Link plus video.
 
You sold an XBOX with Kinect? Damnit I want one but I'm not paying that premium!

Now on to the porn ... I don't think I saw this coming but I'd love to see a video! :D
 
no, not until just now. :eek: It didn't quite load the first time around for me so I thought the video was gone.
 
The concept sounds great. Then you watch the video. Hookers are not to be replaced anytime soon.
 
Isn't the porn industry the thing that really pushes web-based media anyway? I read somewhere that the online porn sites are the ones that have really pushed for a lot of what we now take for granted in every day internet stuff.

It's a theory that's been around for years. Porn made home video recorders take off. Porn made DVDs replace VHS tapes. Home porn helped video recorders sell. Porn was the first industry to monetize the Internet. First to HD content online, etc. etc. etc.

I buy the argument.
 
That guy in the video has some mad skills with the "virtual" ladies. Do you think the Kinect would recognize your hand in the shocker position, or if you could get bonus points for using it?
 
If this thing could differentiate between a Shocker, Spocker and Show-Stopper - it may have potential... ;)
 
They should call this game Porn Hero and include a high tech blow up doll with sensors and buttons all over it. Could you imagine writing the cheat book for that game? I wonder how many nerds would abandon World of Warcraft for this game.

I wonder if the Konami code would work with that?

And really, I'm surprised it took this long for pr0n to show up.
 
I'm sure the lack of feedback for the player will be fixed by special.... "peripherals".
