Playboy Does Gaming .. Again

Yes it's that time of the year again, when pimply boys and grown men alike can ogle virtual booty and get their rocks off. Of course we know men only read Playboy for the interesting and informative world views and articles that appear within. And of course anyone ogling.. we mean examining the fine detail of the virtual artwork, such as skin tone, light and shadow effects is sure to be impressed.

For the female gamer though this just perpetuates one of the big issues within the realm of gaming--the inextricable linkage of female games characters and sexual identity. Not to mention also perpetuating the myth (at least we hope it's just a myth) that a lot of male gamers are sad social misfits who buy porn because they don't know how to communicate with real women... or something. The virtual 'babe's issue is on sale in December... -yawn-.
