Marrying interest in sex with advanced 3D gaming technology is a topic most videogame makers and industry pundits have thus far avoided, but that may be about to change, with the release of XStream3D Multimedia's Virtually Jenna.
Wired "Sex Drive" columnist Regina Lynn reviews the game, which is based on the body and character of porn star Jenna Jameson. Lynn comes away impressed with the visuals as well as the subject matter: "It's about time someone created a sex game with such a well-rendered environment and beautifully modeled characters. And it's about time we had a game that devotes as much detail and screen time to sex as other games grant to violence."
Lynn reports Virtually Jenna is the foundation of a complex action game which incorporates sex, action, and mystery. XStream3D plans to deliver the game in segments via an online subscription service, and develop better graphics capabilities as subscriptions rise along with photorealistic capabilities in newer graphics cards. Other planned features include letting players insert themselves into the game using "photo personalization technology" and ordering customized Jenna audio, according to Wired.
There is a lot of pent-up interest in sex-oriented video games, suggests XStream3D President Brad Abram: He told Lynn a beta Virtually Jenna test link posted to a Norweigian blog received 70,000 unique visitors in just a few hours, along with 240 credit card orders, which xStream3D had to refund.
