YNOT – Microsoft has given software developer Thrixxx a thumbs down on the latter’s plans to sell a software key allowing Microsoft’s Kinect to be used for sex games.

“Xbox is a family-friendly games and entertainment console and does not allow adults-only content to be certified for use on its platform, and would not condone this type of game for Kinect,” Microsoft said in a prepared statement. “This isn’t the first example of a technology being used in ways not intended by its manufacturer, and it won’t be the last. Microsoft did not authorize or license its technology for this use.”

Thrixxx, which has created sex-simulation software and games since 2003, utilized the Kinect’s open-source drivers and Windows 7 to control the action in a virtual sex scenario.

According to ABC News, Brad Abram, vice president of business development for Thrixxx, believes the company may be able to sidestep Microsoft by working with another unnamed company.

“The Kinect controller is astonishing new technology that allows users to experience cybersex like never before,” Abram said before Microsoft’s negative reaction. “It’s novel, sexy, social, age-spanning, crazy and a rush to have virtual control at this level.”

Presently, the software is in early alpha stage testing, but Abram said plans remain to release a product in 2011 as an option for all games using the Thrixxx engine. Eventually users will be able to employ full-body or hand gestures, voice commands and even real-world sex toys like vibrators to control interactions in the game and between two active participants.

“Imagine being able to control a game experience with a real-world dildo in hand and having someone else remotely enjoy the in-game interaction online,” Abram said.

A demonstration of the technology can be seen in a video posted to Gamerotica.com, the official user-generated content community for Thrixxx games.
