Xbox Live to feature content for lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, and trans-gender audiences.

The Xbox 360 will become the first console to feature Logo: MTV's station for the lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender audience. Along with this, more videos, TV shows, and movies will be added soon.
After having huge success on Xbox LIVE Marketplace with content from MTV, Comedy Central and VH1, this month MTV Networks is bringing two more properties to the service:

  • Country Music Television. On June 6, country music fans on Xbox LIVE will enjoy a great lineup of TV shows from CMT, the #1 country music network in the nation. Fans can download the first seasons of hit shows such as, “Comedy Stage,” “Foxworthy’s Big Night Out” and “Prankville” starting tomorrow, with more series and episodes rolling out this summer.
  • Logo. On June 11, Xbox 360 will become the first gaming console to offer content from Logo, the network for the lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender audience from MTV Networks. Xbox LIVE will offer a bevy of popular Logo shows, from comedies “Wisecrack,” and “The Big Gay Sketch Show,” to scripted dramas like “Noah’s Arc,” and other programs including, “Curl Girls” and “Real Momentum Documentaries.”


Beginning June 12, two of the biggest anime distributors in the US will join current Xbox LIVE partner ADV Films with popular shows, movies, gamer pics and themes, making LIVE Marketplace an unparalleled online source for quality anime content:

  • FUNimation. The epic adventure series “Samurai 7,” adapted from Akira Kurosawa’s legendry film “Seven Samurai,” is coming to Xbox LIVE Marketplace. Also coming from FUNimation: “Trinity Blood,” “Gunslinger Girl,” and “Basilisk.”
  • Geneon Entertainment. Die-hard fans and those new to the genre alike will enjoy the U.S. HD debut of the anime classic “Akira,” available exclusively from Geneon on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. Also available from Geneon Entertainment at launch: “Gun Sword,” “Last Exile,” “Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo” and “Lupin the 3rd.”

    Well, I guess the lesbians, gays, bi-sexuals, and trans-genders need something to appeal to them too.

      I'm some what sure Microsoft won't allow pornography onto X-Box Live.
      But I have been wrong before.

    I don't find it funny.

    They are just making Xbox Live for everyone.

    I don't find it particularly funny myself, but it's another good move by Microsoft to bring content to everyone. The more important part of the article, I think, is the anime though. HD Akira for the ultimate win. kthnx.

    Neither do I, really. It's interesting that they are broadening Live with new shows, especially with somewhat controversial content (although I don't understand why people find them so controversial). Don't see whats so hilarious about gays in general. Sure, shows make them seem funny, but they are pretty normal people in real life.

    Oh well. I'd like to see the reaction those weird religious fanatics are sure to have, though. I wonder if it will top off the "9/11 is God's way of getting back at gays" thing, but so far nothing has.

    Isn't that Gunslinger Girl show (borderline) hentai? That close enough for porn, ZTR?
