I think the reason we haven't really seen this kind of thing much is because even though it's a lot more common and you see it on TV and whatnot, society is still not accepting of it enough to see it passively in a video game and not really think it strange. The truth is, at this point in time, if a game is released featuring a gay protagonist, with the guy falling in love with another guy or something like that, I can almost guarantee that sales would be poor to fair at best and it would bring up some controversy that would probably be more damaging than helpful to the game developer.
The Developers are making games to make money, not to make social statements, so I don't really see anything like this happening anytime soon.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
