Fallout: New Vegas is progressing robot/human 'relations'

Fallout: New Vegas features robot sex.

We know you prefer a little bit of easing into the main thesis of our news articles, but there's just no way we could contain our excitement for this delightful development. The ESRB rating for Obsidian's desert-crawling action-RPG explains, "there is also an extended sequence suggesting (no depiction) sexual activity with a robot." Said erotic automaton will drop bon mots such as "Fisto reporting for duty . . . Please assume the position," and "I suppose I should test you out . . . Servos active!"

On the off chance you think we imagined this bold, innovative feature in some sort of fever dream, you can read the full ESRB description. Or, for a vaguely NSFW look at how this adult subject might be implemented in the game, we suggest turning your attention to The Whitest Kids U' Know.
