Virgin Mobile to Launch Text Message 'Dating' Game

According to the WSJ, Virgin Mobile USA is set to announce today the launch of a dating text message game that allow its customers to test if they have the right moves in approaching others for romance.

"The game, developed by Vibes Media, puts players on a virtual date where they respond to questions and react to situations.

For example, if a female player is losing momentum, the response might be, "C'mon, throw him a bone once in a while -- the poor guy can't tell if u like him or NOT." Then she will receive a message with several choices. Each text message choice brings the player one step closer to getting a virtual date, or striking out."
