This might go without saying, but videogames do a terrible job at depicting sex. Awkward cut scenes, terrible graphics, and unhooking a bra with the d-pad? Is this really the current state of sex in videogames? Most of the time it's so blatant and ridiculous that it pulls you right out of the game. It's not like games have ever shied away from mature topics. Yet while games are filled to the brim with hyper-sexualized titillation, it's rare when a game has anything profound to say about sex, other than "you did it man!" great job. So why are videogames so bad at sex? Watch the episode to find out!
