An All New Kind of Video Dating


Are you a devoted gamer who doesn't have a lot of game once you turn off the PS3? Tired of sitting home alone with your joystick? A new service called GameCrush is here to help.
If you're an avid online gamer chances are you sign onto, say, Xbox Live most nights and jump into a game of Modern Warfare or Gears of War with either your friends or some random players. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say the majority of gamers you encounter are dudes, and probably immature dudes at that. What if you could pay a bit of cash to play Modern Warfare with an attractive girl? Or maybe relax with a casual game of checkers while you video chat with said female? A new social service launching tomorrow, March 23, called GameCrush (www.GameCrush.com) is hoping there are gamers out there willing to pay for the opportunity to play with girls.

On GameCrush, guys are Players and girls are PlayDates. Players pay to play and PlayDates get paid to play. Guys can browse PlayDate profiles (there are currently around 1,200), view photos, and even chat with girls for free. Publicityhazard's turn ons include vibrating controllers, for instance, and is turned off by three red lights. Once you find a gal you fancy you send her a game invite and if she accepts you get six to ten minutes of one-on-one gaming time.

The PlayDates can set their "moods" to either "flirty" or "dirty"; I'm guessing users of the service will be setting their moods to either "pants on" or "pants off". The service is currently only available for Xbox 360 users, but PS3 access is, ahem, coming.
