Playboy Embraces the PSP

Playboy will soon release content for Sony's PSP. According to Gamasutra, "the company
will offer nude and non-nude photo galleries that have been specifically formatted for viewing on the PSP, taking
advantage of the open movie and image viewing capabilities of Sony's handheld."
What's surprising about this announcement is that Playboy is choosing to release titillating videos and photographs first. We thought everyone read the magazine for the articles, so what gives? Where's the highbrow literature we've come to expect from Playboy?
Concerns about the coarsening of society aside, this isn't the first time we've covered this topic (see previous entry here) so we've got some practical tips for you if you hope to convert your PSP to a Pornstation portable:
-
Protect your investment by using the PSP's wrist-strap.
-
You may want to obtain a privacy overlay if you intend to view this content on public transportation.
-
Thumb prints on your PSP screen: tired. Other stuff on your PSP screen: wired.

LoL the PSP has been opend up to do way more that alot of people have imagined

Not really. It views images, videos, and web pages. Everything stems from that. Sure, there's a lot of fairly neat stuff you can do, but imagine what we could do if we could run executable code... due to Sony's encryption, though, it doesn't look like that'll happen anytime soon.

Yea but i mean the fact that no one here thought a company like playboy was going to open up a hole new service just for PSP viewing.

But Mom, I'm only downloading the Playboy PSP content for the articles.

They already offer the same service for the iPod photo, so it's not a big suprise.

Yet more proof that the PSP is for total losers.

Truer words from a kittylitter-eating cat have never been said. Just stay away from the Big Shiny Red History Eraser Button. Wokka wokka.

Why you must have naked pics and movies with you at all time? Why you not have girlfriend? You play with snake on lunch break? On school bus?
This truly silly absolute!
