Animators Dream? Playboy Enters Video Game Fray
Fulfilling the animation fantasies of aspiring video game designers worldwide, Groove Games and ARUSH Entertainment, under license from Playboy Enterprises, are producing Playboy: The Mansion. This is Playboy's first foray into the world of video games.
The game itself appears to be a Hugh Hefner meets Monopoly style game where players build their own version of the Playboy Mansion, grow the Playboy empire, hobnob with celebrities, and generally live the Playboy lifestyle. The game will be available on the PlayStation2 for the 2004 holiday season.
This is further proof, for aspiring video game designers out there, that the game design and animation industry extends into all aspects of society and that the boundaries of opportunity are virtually limitless.
