One thing I thought of doing was finding an MMORPG that is localized in the language you want to learn, as well as in English. Play it in English and then switch over to French and join a guild. A couple reasons why I though this could work:
-Because the context is limited, you should be able to intuit more meaning on your own in much the same way that people learn languages from birth.
-You can start with written words and move up to spoken language (Teamspeak, ventrillo, etc.)
-You are subverting the carefully designed rewards placed in all MMO's for your own needs. -the better you know the language, the better you can play, and the better you will be rewarded.
Possible downsides - a lot of the language will be slang, or be particular to the game itself.
