Digital Cowboys 101: Sex in Video Games
Episode 101: Originally published April 18th 2009
Guest: Daniel Floyd, animated internet lecturer for Extra Credits, which can be found here on YouTube. Co-hosted by Tony Atkins whose deep-focus gaming podcast ‘Cane and Rinse’ can be found here.
It’s been many years since we first discussed the depiction of sexual activity in video games and honestly, very little has changed, leaving this still very relevant. Many issues are raised including the general public attitude to even a whisper of sexual content in a medium still perceived to be aimed mostly at children. We talk about the developers who push the boundaries and which games have held back the course of maturing portrayal over the years.
And of course we discuss the Fox News Mass Effect “SEXbox” debacle.
