Sometimes, some of us get bored of horror sick shooter games and want something different to play, something not related to blood and killings.
This summer Playboy is making us a surprise by launching a new game called Pool Party.

The announcement was made by THQ Wireless who signed an agreement with Playboy Enterprises for the exclusivity of this branded mobile game which is described as a non-nude game but in which we’ll be able to see bikini-clad Playmates and other sexy stuff included in a set of mini-games with the action placed at Playboy Mansion where girls are engaged in pool party sports like poolside water balloon fights, aquatic mechanical bull riding and waterslide slaloms.

It seems to be the perfect game to be launched in summer.
Adam Comiskey, vice president, international, THQ Wireless, explains:
"Given the extensive appeal and popularity of the Playboy brand, mobile games based on this license are sure to provide a fun and entertaining experience.THQ Wireless is ideally positioned to provide engaging games with the hallmark of the Playboy lifestyle."

"The number of Playboy fans around the world has never been greater and that popularity is reflected in the growing sales of Playboy-branded products and services," added Ed Lang, senior vice president of mobile, Playboy Media Group. "Given the growth of the mobile industry, we’re excited to join THQ Wireless in offering this next-generation form of entertainment to consumers."
