Virtual Girlfriend + Real Money? This has all the potential to be a very interesting case of virtual prostitution. The BBC
reports on a new 3G mobile phone game developed in Hong Kong. Virtual Girlfriends are certainly not new and quite popular among Japanese gamers. But here the twist seems to be that you have to pay actual money in order to buy her virtual presents. This game seems then to mix Virtual Pets with sex and virtual economies. I do believe this sort of mix could be quite successful, as long as the presents do not cost a lot.
