f you’ve been following the gaming blogs lately, you may have come across the semi-NSFW video of a scantily clad, giftedly-bootied model called Tahiticora suggestively playing a racing game on the XBox (video after the jump). The video has gone viral: since it was posted on YouTube on February 19th, it has already netted more than 150,000 pageviews.
But the video left many questions unanswered: Is it a viral ad of some sort? Does anyone really play XBox like that? And is Tahiticora really a bona fide XBox fan? Geekosystem investigates:We briefly chatted with Tahiticora (real name: Coralie Teraiefa), who said that:

What do you get when you combine one of our favorite comedians (Dave Attell) with one of our favorite porn stars (Bree Olson) and one of our favorite drinking games (beer pong)? You get one of our favorite videos of the week.
The video below comes from Comedy Central’s new Tosh.0 series, in which comedian Daniel Tosh talks about all things Internet.
We’re not exactly sure what this bit featuring Attell and

performing trick beer pong shots (in Bree’s case without using her
hands) has to do with the Internet, but who cares? It’s great.

Why the original “Star Trek” still matters – Beyond the Multiplex – Salon.com
May 14th
- Image via Wikipedia
In the arid landscape of late-1960s television, largely devoted to quasi-realistic forms like the family sitcom or the police procedural, “Star Trek” was new and startling in several different ways: a science-fiction series that was literary and imaginative and heavily allegorical, that ladled out historical and political messages by the quart and that delivered a distinctive undertone of adult sexuality.
OK, yes, it might be better described as a swaggering, Hefneresque and profoundly sexist version of semi-adult, semi-repressed sexuality. Preening Kirk, arguably the most sexualized male character in TV history, tomcats from one interstellar honey to the next. In Season 1, beehive-haired Yeoman Rand (Grace Lee Whitney) seems to serve as his personal concubine, but for that matter there’s something haremlike about the female personnel aboard the Enterprise in toto. They all apparently departed on a five-year space mission directly from their other jobs as go-go dancers behind Smokey Robinson and the Miracles.
Nurse Chapel (Majel Barrett, later Roddenberry’s wife) moons pathetically for the chaste and logical Spock, who is himself locked in a sub-rosa competition with the bitchy and sexually ambiguous “Bones” McCoy (DeForest Kelley) for Kirk’s attention. Spock pretends not to notice Chapel, but behaves like an outrageous tease; in “Amok Time,” he strokes her tear-stained cheek and murmurs, “It would be illogical for us to protest against our natures.”
But hey, this stew of delightful and appalling ingredients produced the first black-white kiss in the history of American narrative television, the aliens-made-them-do-it snog between Kirk and Lt. Uhura (Nichelle Nichols) in the 1968 episode “Plato’s Stepchildren.” (Contrary to legend, that smokin’-hot moment did not produce widespread outrage in the American South. Widespread arousal, certainly.) In the same scene, Chapel finally gets to kiss Spock, while protesting the whole time that she really, really didn’t want it to happen like this.

Yes, You, Too, Can Manage A Playboy Playmate (Virtually, At Least) | paidContent.org
May 12th

E! has got the Girls Next Door, but Irish video-game firm Jolt Online Gaming is making the Playboy Playmate experience even more interactive. It plans to launch Playboy Manager, a massively multiplayer online (MMO) casual game that lets players live out the fantasy of managing a group of Playboy (NYSE: PLA) models. Jolt picked up the rights from Playboy; the startup’s CEO and founder Dylan Collins told the Sunday Business Post that it was “the first time that Playboy has come into the online gaming space.”
The free game will pull in videos and photos of real-life Playboy models, though players will be able to pay for upgrades; they’ll compete to get their models in the “top spot” as a Playmate (and a permanent room at the Playboy Mansion). It’s one of three games in Jolt’s roster; Collins told the Sunday Business Post that it has two other titles in development, and that it plans to acquire the rights to more: “We will either do deals with big brands such as Playboy and develop the games ourselves, or we will acquire solid, existing games.” Jolt is backed by private investors and Enterprise Ireland (a government-run business development agency); the startup plans to raise more capital this year. Release.

Does video game sex still sell? – Broadsheet – Salon.com

Videos games and sex have a storied history, as anyone who’s spent time in a dorm room full of freshman boys playing “Tomb Raider” could tell you. But despite the genre’s reputation for exploitative babes in hotpants and the notorious “jiggle physics,” an article in the Guardian argues that sex does not, in fact, sell video games.
Here’s the case, made by Alexander Gambotto-Burke: In 2004, Playboy began publishing a yearly “Gaming grows up” feature showing video game heroines in the buff. But many of the games included in the issue have either reported huge losses or ceased production entirely.
Far from the porn-crazed sex ghouls they’re frequently portrayed as, male videogame players appear to be developing quite a potent resistance to exploitative, sex-based marketing practices. Indeed, even Lara Croft has given into this progressive zeitgeist: her breasts and lips have shrunk in recent years, and the rest of her body has been reduced to more anatomically feasible proportions. On cue, her critical stock has risen, and while the first two games in the post-2006 Tomb Raider revamp (Legend and Anniversary) sold unfavourably compared with past instalments, the latest, Underworld, is selling healthily after a lacklustre launch.

Nudity can’t make a bad game good | The Digital Home – CNET News
Apr 13th

EA sent me a copy of The Godfather II for the PlayStation 3 last week. A Godfather trilogy fan, I was excited to see how the game would turn out.
After escaping from Cuba, I was ordained the Corleone family’s New York boss and set out to take over some turf. The first place I was told to capture was a bordello. I had to make it clear to the owner, through violence, that I was now in-charge. After a short drive, I walked through the “front” business and proceeded into the brothel. I was greeted by a woman offering me sexual favors. But there was something special about this prostitute. Unlike the dozens I’d seen in the Grand Theft Auto series, this one was topless.
It wasn’t the first time a woman has been shown nude or partially nude in a video game. Nudity in gaming dates back all the way to the Atari 2600 when Mystique, a “Swedish Erotica” video game developer, started making adult titles for the console.

What Would You Rather Do Than Have Sex? – Lemondrop
Apr 2nd
- Image via Wikipedia
Ladies, you might want to rethink buying your bf a new Xbox game for his birthday. Listen to this: A new study found that a third of men would prefer to play video games rather than have sex with their partners. Even scarier stats: When newly released video games were thrown into the equation, the percent of men opting for virtual stimulation skyrocketed to 72 percent. Lame.
If men can find better things to do, we certainly can. So tell us, ladies, what’s more satisfying to you than doing the deed? Vote in our poll or write your own answers in the comments.

Two Women Create Award-Winning Virginity Video Game – Lemondrop
Mar 30th
- Image via Wikipedia
The game-design world is definitely male-dominated, which is why we’re psyched that two women managed to pick up top honors at this year’s Game Design Challenge at the Game Developer’s Conference in San Francisco.
What’s even better? The game’s about losing your virginity and they managed to design a game in significantly less time than their fellow competitors.
Heather Kelley and Erin Robinson stepped in with only 36 hours to create a game after another competitor left the contest because the theme “your first time” was a little too risqué for her employer.
