I think it's trying to sell the idea that playing a video game is
somehow in the same category of enjoyment as getting laid.

Yeah, makes you wonder why they wouldn't put an ad showing, say, a
woman's vagina in the form of a blu-ray drive. That would make more
sense. >> Stay informed about: Worst Game Ad Ever... |

WTF? Seriously, WTF?
What does a naked dude - with a thumb for a dick no less - have to do with
anything related to the PS3?
Does Sony actually hire professional ad companies, or do they just troll
for art and film school dropouts?
What's the story I'm supposed to get from this ad? "Hey guys! Look what
the PS3 will do to your dick!" Yeah, that makes me want to buy a Sony
product.
I read the ad was only going to appear in Playboy magazine. Again, I just
don't get it. A naked guy is the LAST thing you'd expect in Playboy -
much less would it be considered a reason for opening the magazine in the
first place.

When I posed for that, they told me it was for Playgirl.
And by the way, that picture was in no way doctored.

I also spelled it out, I figured that NSFW could be overlooked while
"NOT SAFE FOR WORK" would be harder to miss.

They don't show vagina's in Japan. They always have it blurred out
even if everything else is shown. >> Stay informed about: Worst Game Ad Ever... |

You should have said, make sure you are alone or something. I have
actually never seen NSFW or Not safe for work in a forward/attachment
before so I didn't know that's what it meant. I know now but I didn't
then. >> Stay informed about: Worst Game Ad Ever... |

Correct, I post mostly through Google Groups which doesn't support
anything fancy. Even then stuff like the blink tag in HTML is
deprecated and even when it did work, only worked in Netscape
Navigator.
I'm sorry someone didn't know what NOT SAFE FOR WORK meant, I assumed
it was relatively common parlance along with LOL, IMHO, IIRC, etc.
