Sex: Achievement Unlocked
I'm not trying to pick on anyone who likes these aspects of games, but for me they simply don't work. They are unappealing and take me out of the world I am trying to immerse myself in. If I don't desire an orgy in my real life I am sure as hell not going to desire it in a video game. It is a simple over looked concept.
I believe these sexual scenes in video games and the rewards attached to them further stereo type of men gamers. As a male gamer I am supposed to see sex as some sort of trophy. I am also suppose to be looking to have sex with more than one man or woman otherwise I am simply not manly enough. God forbid I like monogamous sexual encounters. Subtleties of sexual arousal seem to be gone in marketing they have forgotten sex isn't an achievement to be unlocked it is a normal part of human intimacy.

About Avitagone of us since 10:00 AM on 04.24.2012
I have been playing video games since I was a little kid. One of my first memories is at the age of 6 playing the original Legend of Zelda on my sisters NES. You could say I was hooked from the start. I was always a Nintendo fanboy at heart, we bought gameboy pockets and then the colors, we owned an N64 and I loved to play my friend's SNES, but after the N64's generation I began to broaden my horizons. As of recently Sony began to grow on me and Xbox won me over from the start. While I never owned a Playstation or PS2 I didn't miss on some of my favorite games on them such as: FFVII, FFIX, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, and Legend of Dragoons. I just happen to play those at my friend's house on his systems. Now, I sit at home with a Xbox360, Wii, DS Lite, Gameboy Color, N64, and of course my trust Sega Genesis(all which I still play to this day).
It is hard to decide my all time favorite games, but some include: Final Fantasy IV, Bioshock, Legend of Zelda (NES), Streets of Rage (1 or 2), Sonic 2, Pokemon Red/Silver, Banjo Kazooie, and Halo Evolution: Combat Evolved (the sequels are good but OG is where it is at).
