A new kind of Virgin comes to gaming photo

Virgins and video games, it's sort of like peanut butter and jelly, really. So, it should come as no shock that the actual company Virgin wants to somehow get more involved with the gaming industry. Just announced for the UK only, Virgin is planning on streaming their radio filth to the PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii. Check out the deets:

If there was an award for making a radio station available on as many different platforms as possible, Virgin Radio would win it. From April 10th, the network of stations will be available via Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 3, increasing the reach of the station to a younger audience.

A specially compatible Virgin Radio Player will allow the station to stream content to the units, and users can buy tickets and CDs, as well as download tracks through the Virgin Radio Ticket Store.

Thank God. Now you little virgins won't feel so alone. Thank you mega corporation!

Wow! the combination of 1000s of dust collecting Wiis, un-bought PS3s, and Virgins shit catalog of music, this is sure to be a winner.

You really need some up to date equipment, Niero. I had no idea you ran the site off of that.
