I'm not really a hundred percent sure what you mean by naked games. Are we talking about porn games? If so: essentially, the draw of a pornographic game is that people enjoy watching people have sex - it's a masturbatory aid. This is why the porn movie industry is so popular. Beyond puberty, most people tend to enjoy a good session of bashing the bishop on a fairly regular basis (some more than others), and there are many people who prefer to have a visual aid of some sort.

The porn game industry is taking visual pornography to another level insofar as creating pornography that is not only stimulating, but interactive. Instead of just watching the video and 'clicking your mouse', you actually click your computer's mouse to affect the pornographic environment. It gives the player something more of a sense of involvement, and often provides some form of entertainment value beyond just something you use to get your proverbial rocks off.

Now, there are a fair number of porn games that deal with some very questionable subject matter, including rape, incest, bestiality, scatology, necrophilia and the list goes on. These games (and, admittedly, most porn games of any sort when all is said and done) are looked upon as a big problem, because of the taboos associated with sex of an unusual nature and/or the violence associated therein. I don't really condone or play those games, but they certainly are out there, and there are obviously a large number of people (especially in my country of residence - Japan - a virtual mecca of unusual pornography) who play, enjoy and even would consider them connoisseurs of the genre. It's a profitable industry, so making a porn game commercially generally leads to a fair bit of revenue as well.

Now, why are they funny?

For a number of reasons -  of course. For one, the reasons that were stated before, that sex can be a really funny topic if people are willing to stop taking it so damned seriously. Look at Leisure Suit Larry, that series did a pretty bang-up job of parodizing sexual culture by portraying a complete loser whose one goal in life is to get laid. The humor is generally pretty good, and some of it is even vaguely tasteful. Alien Rape Escape (An AGS game) was another one of those. Good stuff.

Another reason is that a large portion of the porn games available on the internet are of such bad quality that it's hard to take them seriously. The sex scenes are often badly rendered, the voice acting (if present) is often atrocious - which is congruous with the general quality of acting in porn movies that have a plot of some sort, and the situations presented in the games are usually kitschy at best.

Because of the stigma on sex in much of the 'civilized' world, it's a fairly untapped market in the mainstream, but there's a lot of potential for good games that involve sex or sensual/stimulating content. Especially if presented tastefully. However, because it has sex in it, or even just nudity, a lot of games would be considered controversial (even look at the buzz that The Forgotten Element stirred up when it was announced, and that doesn't even present a large focus on any nudity that's implied in the game) if they do. I'm developing a game at present which begins with a dead, naked woman who has committed suicide. Why did I choose that? I felt it was a powerful image, and it sets the tone of the game quite well, I think. It doesn't have anything to do with sex, but I'm imagining that some people will take umbrage to it when it's released, eventually.

Pixeled tits are for some reason so much better than real.

It's because they're made by real people, like you and me.

[Minimi]

[Pumaman]

I think this thread probably answers the question of whether the forums have gone downhill lately...

[Tuomas]

Exactly, and here we were all foolishly worrying about it.

[JimmyShelter]

I wish I wasn't too tired to make jokes about goin downhill.

[Haddas]

Don't worry CJ. It'll return to its former glory eventually. What comes around goes around.


Also cooties.

[Minimi]

I was just adding my 2 cents to make the same point... everything will fade eventually
