FIRST WE had Man U exclusively licence its brand to Jump Games, now THQ Wireless has acquired the world rights to develop Playboy-branded mobile games.

Before you get too excited, although they'll follow the Playboy ethic – whatever that is – this games will only feature non-nude, bikini-clad Playmates.

The first title - Playboy Games: Pool Party - is sst to launch around Q3 2008. It will depict animated, bikini-clad Playmates at the Playboy Mansion engaged in 'pool party sports'.

These will include poolside water balloon fights; waterslide slaloms; THQ and aquatic mechanical bull riding. You notice the pair studiously avoid using the term 'water sports'.

Given the non-erotic nature of the games, the phrase 'damp sqib' comes to mind. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
