Virtual Girlfriend
"Tomagotchi with t**s?"

Artificial Life, a Hong-Kong based company is releasing a game that features a 'virtual girlfriend'; a computer generated woman that appears on your phone's display. Like a tomagotchi you want to mate with, her "romantic activity" (no idea what that means) is relative to the amount of money spent on the fem-bot. This is a crude reflection of the developers' experiences with women. Unless the developers are women, which would make sense too. Link Thanks to Boing Boing
