Video games get very, very naughty Edit

Online games have so far mainly revolved around the killing of fantasy monsters. The occasional fight with a Stormtrooper provides some variety. Companies are now developing a handful of games—though calling them that is a stretch—designed to give players a very different option: making love, not war.

In “Naughty America: The Game,” set to launch early this summer, players will assume the forms of alluring but cartoonish people who meet, flirt and have sex with other player characters.

Characters will have their own apartment, but the world will have also have “public sex zones” and themed rooms, said Tina Courtney, the game’s producer.
