MMOrgy: Sexy Sprite

Originally written by qDot for mmorgy.com

Hot or Not. It's a formula that's been used time and time and time and time again. So why not apply it to virtual worlds?

That's exactly what Sexy Sprite aims to do.

They cover every world that has avatars, so no matter if you're on Second Life, Guild Wars, World of Warcraft, or any other MMO.

Hey, I wonder if I could take a picture of my desc from LambdaMOO...

MMOrgy: Naughty America Interview

Originally written by qDot for mmorgy.com

GameDaily has an interview with Tina Courtney, producer on Naughty America (Previous mentioned on MMOrgy here and here). In contains such gems as (and seriously, I shit you not, these questions ARE consecutive in the interview):

_

Why did you go with 2D instead of 3D?

Well, with 3D you're trying very hard to be realistic, and if you don't succeed in making it totally realistic then it looks really cheesy.

Since you can go to the plastic surgeon, what can you have enhanced?

Your breasts and your penis size.

Now, I'm not sure if that's savvy editing or pure coincidence, but that's comedy gold right there.

MMOrgy: Articles on Cybersex

Originally written by Isabelle Pavlova for mmorgy.com

We've gotten a couple of articles on cybersex in today, and since sex in MMOs still mainly hinges on textual interaction (at least, until qDot gets around to finishing up something usable), we thought they'd be appropriate.

First off, a rather old article from Sex Therapist Dr. Marty Klein on whether cybersex is actually sex, and why people have cybersex at all. Between then and now, all we've gained in terms of widely-used cybersex technology is more fonts, so much of the analysis in the article is still applicable today.

Off the news wire, Reuters is reporting that a poll of Canadian students showed that 87 percent had reported having some sort of text/voice/video internet-based sex experience. Interesting statistic, especially with the number of students also likely to be playing MMOs.

MMOrgy: Gay Neighborhoods in Second Life

Originally written by Isabelle Pavlova for mmorgy.com

GLBT issues in online games have become a major issues in the past few weeks due to the ever-present Blizzard issues. While doing some research, I found this academic project site that outlines some of the gay gathering places in Second Life.

As this project was done in the Fall of last year, it's questionable as to how many of these places still exist, though we do know that Haz Pazaar is still around.

NaughtyTech - A New Player Enters the Fray

NaughtyTech - A New Player Enters the Fray

So I've been checking back on the Naughty Tech site every so often since they went live last summer, and it looks like they've finally got something going. Posted on their site last week is a demo video of their new Teledildonics control software, combining toy and camera control into one GUI. It's an interesting idea, really, and I like their setup better than the other's I've seen so far.

They've got a rather hidden blog too, http://www.naughtytech.com/blog

Always good to see more competition in the teledildonics field.
