Virtual smut city online

Red Light World

It's bound to happen. The porn industry has always been early adopters of technology and with gaming and 3D worlds now becoming popular, it's no wonder smut pedlars have come up with a Sims-like virtual world for porn-viewing audiences.
...the Red Light World, a 3-D adult-oriented virtual environment that offers the sex-starved a chance to visit the Dutch city's infamous quarter and take in its XXX movie theaters, Viagra outlets, sex toy stores and adult DVD shops. Players get to meet sexy singles and more, all without springing for a plane ticket or worrying about getting mugged.
...
As an interactive online experience, Red Light World is actually made up of a large number of online porn sites cobbled together in a way that evokes the feeling of window shopping in Amsterdam's sin-centric neighborhood. Thus, when you walk your avatar into one of the XXX movie theaters and choose a screen to watch a film, the service launches a website with hard- or softcore movies.
