I'm pretty sure I blogged about this story when it first hit, but when you crank out as much awesomeness as I do it's easy to lose track.
GameCrush is a new on-line gaming service where sweaty nerds everywhere can pay hot chicks to curb stomp them in Gears of War 2. I know it sounds ridiculous but you ever played Halo online? I'd consider paying extra just to play without all the racist 12 years olds much less with "cute" girls.
Six-minute sessions involve real face-to-face time over webcam with the girl over a casual game of checkers, pool or Battleship. Those looking for more hardcore action can game time over Xbox Live and PlayStation Network.
GameCrush has created four zones to help define the type of interaction between Players and PlayDates (the girls). These zones include:
* The Arcade - Fun is the name of the game. Nice and chill.
* The Arena - For serious gamers. Butt-kickings handed out left and right.
* The Academy - Learn tips and tricks from experienced PlayDates.
* The Edge - Not for the faint of heart. This could get interesting.

You know what's totally sad. I also think I would pay to play in the Academy zone. I've played Modern Warfare 2 on-line for about 20 minutes and I racked up all of one kill.. and I think that guy was in the bathroom at the time.

Now I know what to buy your son for his birthday once he reaches his teens.
I'm guessing that by the time Logan is in his teens they'll have some sort of Robo-Virtua hookers on X-box live. Of course you'll need a gold subscription..
Wow... that is really weird/sad. Like Grant Morrison's Invisibles made into reality.
I remember playing lots of Rainbow Six and Castle Wolfenstein. I have never been blown up and riddled with bullets by more obnoxious kids in my life.
The Y2K-style survivalists that frequented the Tom Clancy games were at least interesting, though.
