Playboy video games? Yep

December 11, 2002 - It's high time we had a Playboy game, isn't it? We sure think so. In conjunction with ARUSH Entertainment and co-publisher Groove Games, Playboy Enterprises announced today its intention to make a set of sim-style Playboy videogames for PlayStation 2, PC and Xbox.

Slated for a 2004 release date, the first of the Playboy games (the title of which has not yet been announced) enables players to step into the mind, robe, slippers and well, body of Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner to establish and build a Playboy empire and... live a Playboy lifestyle. Leisure Suit Larry, eat your heart out.

"Basically the first game is in concept stage," said Donald Case, marketing manager. "We're in talks with several developers right now who are all very interested. We're actively pursuing a few groups of developers in early January. We could start showing the game around E3."

After Sony Computer Entertainment America's recent censorship of Acclaim's BMX XXX, however, Playboy's game will be very interesting indeed when it comes time for final approval. Exactly how far will the game go?

"We're absolutely not trying to push the envelope," added Case. "We don't want to make the game borderline AO [Adult Only], it's going to be an M-rated game. It will, however, have nudity, topless female nudity. And it will be rated by the ESRB. But we don't want to take it to the same level as BMX XXX. We're going to present it in a different way. It'll be classy and sexy, but not in your face. We are still discussing it now, and we haven't decided whether we'll use polygonal breasts or use actual live footage."

...and we haven't decided whether we'll use polygonal breasts or use actual live footage.

Ahhhh, the question that will be asked for years to come.

I would think (hope) the answer would be obvious...

Killer green dinosaurs? Yes. Breasts? No. Although I do admit a certain attraction for one of the Tekken 4 chicks...

I think this quote sums up my feelings on this issue:

SolidSnakeASS:
Video game characters should not have the ability to sexually arouse me.

...but sadly they do.
Go polygonal breasts.

If your significant other has a "hot chicks" problem, I've found it is rooted in her low self esteem and can lead to other problems... I don't get serious with women like that.

That's right, if a woman has a problem with PlayBoy, something is wrong with her, definitely not the guy looking at it...
