Mafia II will feature vintage issues of Playboy Magazine

Nudity and sexual themes in general are among the most heavily censored subjects but, despite this trend, some developers have managed to find tasteful ways to include them into their stories. With this idea in mind, 2K Games has partnered with Playboy Magazine for its upcoming game, Mafia II.

Mafia II will recreate the world of organized crime during the late ’40s and the ’50s in the US. Players will control Vito who will get involved in various criminal activities reminiscent of a Grand Theft Auto game.

Title: Postal: The MoviePrice: $26.99 (DVD), $34.99 (Blu-Ray)Release Date: August 26, 2008Studio: Vivendi EntertainmentRating: “Not Rated” (Blood, violence, mature humor, nudity, strong language and sexual themes).Pros: Surprisingly decent cinematography and funny moments. Plenty of guest appearances and carnage. Ships with full version of Postal 2 videogame and includes Boll boxing matches as bonus feature.Cons: Some really low points of humor. Not quite as shocking as promised or bloody as expected but definitely not for kids.Overall Score: One thumb up and one thumb down; 75/100; C; * * 1/2 out of five.

It’s a sad truth that games based on movies generally suck. Movies based on games, unfortunately, usually aren’t much better.

Well, not exactly.
