Imagine being responsible for and managing some of Playboy's hottest models. Well, that's not happening. But you can act like it in what publisher Jolt Online Gaming is calling a Massively Casual Online Game, titled Playboy Manager.

This game is supposed to combine the best elements of trading card and turn-based gaming with hot nekkid pictures of Playmates. Playboy Manager, an in-browser game, is the only online game to get access to Playboy photos and videos, both to be used in-game. The game will launch in the summer of 2009, and will be free to play at playboymanager.com.

We’ve wanted to do a Playboy game forever,” exclaimed Dylan Collins, CEO of Jolt. “As enormous fans of the articles, we jumped at the opportunity to bring the game online for a huge audience. Who hasn’t wanted to manage a Playboy model?”

Fans of the articles? I see what they did there. The whole thing sounds a bit douchey if you ask me, but that shouldn't stop you from registering at the official site, where they'll give away 5 lifetime subscriptions to Playboy Magazine.

I like naked women and trading card-based games, so I should like this, right?
