Playboy Cozies Up With Sony PSP

By Ed Oswald | Published April 20, 2005, 1:02 PM

Last year it was iBod; this year, it's the PlayboyStation Portable. Playboy's online division has announced a new service for the PSP that will allow users to see pictures and video that has been specifically formatted for the new gaming console.

A sci-fi themed photoshoot of model Amy Cooper will be the first images available on the PSP. The service, in PG-rated clothing, will be available to non-subscribers in the form of two free galleries and a video. A racier version of these galleries and videos will be made available to subscribers of the magazine.

Fail to see how...

I mean I love Nintendo, but the DS wasn't really innovative now, was it?

voice recognition, dual-processors, dual-screens, touch screen, backwards compatibility... none of which the PSP has... nope. No innovation there. I don't know what I was thinking.

Dual processors, as in one being the GBA and the other the DS processor? My GBA has that too! One for the GB and the other the GBA.

Also, don't forget the screens are tiny and look like garbage and the design is ugly too. Now that's innovation! :)

Oh yeah, don't forget about the DS being a phase-change system, and it was only out there to compete with the PSP. GB2 is going to be their main system. (However, I am not 100% sure if this is true.)

Yeah that's true. I don't have a DS for that reason. I wanted one, but I decided to hold out for the next system. Looks like it's going to pay off too. It's already coming out later this year.

And about the GBA having dualprocessors... do you know what a processor is? lol... far as I know GBA didn't have two processors, just two instruction sets.

DS is the biggest BS ever, i mean 2 screens, wow thats so cool now i can look at my a** while i shoot. Obviously had their heads up theirs to come out with the DS. Need some convincing? Try the PSP for awhile to see real quality.
Fact: DS = BS

BTW that aint foul language is it, i mean DS aint a swear word yet is it?
