The Boobs: Pretty much any warm-blooded straight male would love to switch roles with Hugh Hefner (at least in his prime), but to play him in a video game? That's the pitch for Playboy: The Mansion, which has players building the Playboy empire from its humble origins to the commercial juggernaut it's known as today. Activities consist of publishing the monthly magazine and canoodling with Playmates, most of whom will drop their panties for the Hef inside of about two minutes, resulting in topless nudity, though the genital region is always obscured. But Was The Game Any Good?: Not really. It's a surprisingly rigorous, mundane look at the Playboy lifestyle, and frankly, is there much of an audience for a model-banging simulator? The game seems to be an attempt by the porno giant to keep their image alive in the age of the Internet, to get younger people interested in the publication, though given that this effort never rose above being a firmly niche product, it's hard to see it as a success.
