The gaming industry as a whole has always dabbled with the notion that “Sex Sells” but very rarely have they done it in a good way. In fact, the games that result from these ideas are almost always terrible half-assed atrocities aimed squarely at the pants of adolescent hormones. No where does this seem more true than with Ubisoft’s latest game for the Wii that utilizes the Wiimote in naughty and provocative ways.
