‘Mafia II’: ‘Say Hello To My Little Friend!’

Offers Violence, Blood, Mayhem in 1940s, 50s Underworld

Aug 24 2010 Posted in Gaming by Ted Webb with View Comments

Mafia II“Mafia II” offers gamers and would-be gangsters plenty of chances to invoke the famous words of Al Pacino’s “Scarface” character, “Say hello to my little friend!” Set in a violent, bloody 1940s and 50s underworld of crime and mayhem, the new video game was released on Tuesday by 2K Czech for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.

The game’s main character is Vito Scaletta, the son of Sicilian parents who immigrated to the United States. The setting is Empire City, a fictional metropolis that conjures up comparisons to New York, Chicago and San Francisco.

Scaletta’s goal is to move up into the top ranks of the mob, which of course means he’ll have to lie, steal, cheat, betray and murder to get there. The game is rated “M” for Mature for violence, cursing and nudity. The nudity part involves  1950′s Playboy covers and centerfolds that are part of a licensing deal.

“Mafia II” involved a great deal of historical research by writer Daniel Vavra, according to a CNN review. Players can drive historically accurate cars (which they can customize) and listen to music from the era (the game includes 120 licensed songs from the 40s and 50s which play on the cars’ radios and other places).

Players also get to bribe cops, engage in shootouts, and find guns, food and clothes in the city’s shops in neighborhoods. Scenes include classic mafia hangouts, a bourbon distillery, Chinese restaurant and a dock warehouse.

Brett Favre Sent Jets Staffer Pix of Penis

Jenn Sterger still has them and shares with her BFFs

Aug 4 2010 Posted in NFL by Mark Leevan with View Comments

Jenn Sterger is a hotty  Sports Illustrated columnist and model.  She is  claiming that Brett Favre has such respect and strong feelings for her that he took pictures of his junk and sent them to her cell.

Sterger claims this happened on many occasions. She claims to still have them, and shares them with BFFs for giggles.

The 26 year old Playboy and Maxim model and tight end, and Favre were flirty when they both were associated with the New York Jets.

She told Deadspin, she didn’t want to lose her job so she didn’t call any audibles that would lead him to think his passes were nothing but OB.

Favre also allegedly sent her sexts and odd emails, according to the report.

Comparing pictures of Deanna Favre and Jenn Sterger, it’s remarkable how much they look alike, family pics here.

Sterger told USA Today

“I always felt sports TV was a bunch of guys in suits yelling at me. Other shows don’t exactly know how to use social media and the Web. Since I’m practically living on the Web, I’ve got a pulse on what going on out there…..And I’ll be personally accessible to the audience, except for my personal phone number.”

Hefner Plans Playboy Private Mouth-to-Mouth, FriendFinder Postpones Bid

Jul 14 2010 Posted in Business, Featured News by Ted Webb with View Comments

Holly Madison, Hugh Hefner, and Bridget Marquardt Playboy’s in hot water like a sauna at the Playboy Mansion, and founder Hugh Hefner wants to save it through a kind of private mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Rival Penthouse owner FriendFinder Networks has delayed its bid to gobble up Playboy Enterprises Inc.’s outstanding shares, though CEO Marc Bell says an offer is “forthcoming,” Bloomberg reports. Hefner, the 84-year-old star of the TV reality show, “The Girls Next Door,” is hoping to join a private equity firm to make Playboy Enterprises Inc. a private company, taking it off the New York Stock Exchange. Hefner’s bid to take the company private is for $123 million.

Hefner founded Playboy in 1953 and still owns most of the shares. The company achieved major success in its pre-VHS, pre-Internet heyday, with pictures of naked women increasing its circulation to nearly 7 million during the 1970s. But now its circulation has dwindled to around 1.5 million. The company’s profits have been hurting under decreased advertising revenue thanks to free porn alternatives on the World Wide Web. Most of Playboy Enterprises Inc.’s revenues today come from licensing for products ranging from men’s underwear to slot machines.

Hefner is the owner of nearly 70% of Playboy Enterprise Inc.’s Class A common stock and 28% of the Class B common stock, according to The Wall Street Journal. He’s offering $122.5 million, or $5.50 for each share he doesn’t already own, almost a 40 percent premium above the $3.94 stock price that closed this past Friday. The price reportedly rose in trading earlier this week, following Hefner’s offer, and the planned second offer from FriendFinder.

Playboy stops Portuguese edition with Jesus-like figure on cover

Jul 8 2010 Posted in International by Tamara Woods with View Comments

Playboy cover

Playboy has been shocked and is pulling issues from stands, according to Daily Mail.

Playboy Portugal paid tribute to Nobel Prize-winning author Jose Saramago’s The Gospel According to Jesus Christ. Sounds innocent enough, until you factor in the nudity. Apparently, Hefner is lounging in his robe, displeased.

The magazine’s Portuguese subsidiary, Frestacom-Lisbon Media Publishing, reportedly neglected to show the cover to Playboy before publication, thereby breaching the licensing agreement between the two companies.

Inside, the Portuguese edition of the magazine ran a photo shoot featuring Jesus Christ among topless models. A long-haired, glimmering Jesus-like figure is shown among various naked women. One of the women, who is heavily tattooed, appears to have died in his arms, reports say

Theresa Hennessy, Playboy Enterprises vice president of public relations said they did not see or approve of the July issue of Playboy Portugal edition before publication.

It is a shocking breach of our standards and we would have not allowed it to be published if we had seen it in advance.

I wonder how much these issues will go for on Ebay?

Lady Gaga To Pose For Playboy?

Jun 9 2010 Posted in Music by Cover Media with View Comments

Lady GagaLady Gaga is considering posing naked for Playboy.

The 24-year-old pop star is famous for her outrageous fashion sense and often goes out in her underwear. She has previously refused offers to appear in Hugh Hefner’s iconic adult magazine, but is now said to be considering it because she thinks it will help her “grow as an artist”.

“She thinks it will be an experience, and she’s always looking to grow as an artist,” a source revealed. “She doesn’t think there’s anything distasteful about it. She sees it as just another form of expression.

“She’s always looking to shock and entertain, and something like this would be perfect for her. She wants her shoot to be like nothing Playboy has ever seen before. If she doesn’t drop it, her nude shoot will be like nothing Playboy has ever seen!”

But Gaga’s friends and management team are trying to convince her that stripping off for the publication is not the right thing to do. They fear posing nude would destroy her “edgy” image, and are advising her to keep her clothes on.

“Most of her inner circle are fuming about her plans to strip off,” a source told British magazine Heat. “Her business people are trying to convince her the shoot will be seen as lowbrow and cheesy, and will alienate her fans who like her edgy appeal.

“No-one wants her to do it. It goes against all her ideas about creativity.”

Hefner confirmed he has asked Gaga to pose for his publication, but didn’t mention if she had accepted. He did say he was convinced the star would bring something very “special” to the magazine if she appeared in it.

“We’d love to have Lady Gaga in Playboy. That would be a very special issue,” the 84-year-old lothario wrote on his Twitter page.

Gaga turned down an offer to appear in Playboy in early 2009 because she said she wanted to focus on her music. At the time, she said she might be interested in posing nude in the future if it would boost sales of her albums.

“I mean, if I was a glamour model, I would be delighted (with Playboy’s offer), but for me it’s all about the music,” she said at the time. “Ask me again, though, when I have a new album to plug.”

May 11 2010 Posted in Entertainment, Featured News by Dan Evon with View Comments

Hope Dworaczyk was recently named the Playmate of the year. But not only does she get to gloat about the title, she also gets the honor of being the first Playmate to be shot in 3-D.

The June issue of Playboy will have 3-D pictures of Hope Dworacyzk for its centerfold spread. It is Hugh Hefner’s latest move to rejuvenate the classic Playboy brand.

Playboy circulation has fallen from 3.5 million to 1.5 million since 2006.

“What would people most like to see in 3-D?” asked Playboy Hugh Hefner. “Probably a naked lady.”

“This particular picture is one example of how books and magazines are different (than computer images),” Hefner added. “You can hold it in your hands, save them, and as Dad used to, put them under the mattress.”

The 3-D issue of Playboy, featuring Playmate of the Year, Hope Dworacyzk, will hit news stands this Friday, equipped with your own naked lady ogling 3-d glasses.
