Sex and the MMORPG experience
With the ongoing race to make more and more sophisticated MMORPGs, I'm curious why no one has put any work on adding a gameplay system to handle sex. In World of Warcraft (probably the current king of the heap), players can craft weapons and armors, collect herbs and mineral ores to create potions and enhancements, swim underwater, fly through the air, even run a complete buy and sell business straight off the game's auction house system. We can dance, we can flirt; why can't we have carnal knowledge?
Ok, now back up, you pervs. I don't mean actually turning the game into porn or some kind of rape-fest. That's called the Internet. Try it sometime. What I'm talking about is a gameplay system that handles the wonderful intricacies of attraction, arousal, and *ahem* intimacy?

Webtrix:Remix of world`s most popular puzzle game Tetris
Webtrix is a remix of the great puzzle game Tetris. The object of the game is to arrange the falling figures to complete horizontal lines within the playing field. Webtrix starts with a clear playing field (19 cells high by 10 cells wide) and shapes randomly falling one at a time from the top of the playing field. The shapes are made of four adjacent small blocks arranged into 7 different patterns. The player may affect the falling figures by moving them left or right or rotating them clockwise or counterclockwise within the playing field while they are still falling. When a complete line is formed, that line is eliminated from the playing field, and the player scores points. If the player cannot complete lines, the figures eventually build upon each other and reach the top of the playing field, thus ending the game.
