Is America not ready for sexy dares?

Ubisoft We Dare videoGame developer Ubisoft has a new offering for Wii and Playstation 3: We Dare. Ubisoft describes the product as "a sexy, quirky, party game that offers a large variety of hilarious, innovative and physical, sometimes kinky, challenges." Judging from the commercial, the game itself looks pretty tame, offering harmless cartoon characters that players manipulate with the Wii controller.

But the ad itself goes much further, suggesting that couples will want to spice up the action with some controller action of their own.

The catch, for Americans anyway, is that Ubisoft won't be selling the product in the U.S. According to the online gaming magazine IGN, the developer has even now blocked the ads from appearing on YouTube in the U.S. The rest of the world can see this (totally harmless) TV ad, but not poor, puritanical America. But you can still watch them on IGN's site.

Mixing the concept of dares with sexy situations is one of Nakedism's favorite ways to enjoy getting or staying undressed. You hardly need a video game for that. Still, it's kind of sad that America's reputation for social conservatism has stopped Ubisoft from even trying to sell such a mild product in one of the world's biggest markets.
