I could have sworn there was a girls of gaming thing in playboy. it was all renders and cheesecake, but I'm fairly sure it happened.

Internet says October 2004 was one of the issues. And another in 2005, and 2009.

As I looked this up, I discovered they also did a limited series of trading cards for the one in 2005.

I remember that too. Melonie must have memory holed it, since it's evidence against her position

If you bring it up, she'll say she's not technically wrong. AFAIK, Lara Croft was never a part of that. I found several lists, but I didn't see her on them. And that's who she mentioned.

Nevermind the fact that there were game themed playboy issues for several years.

Her refinement of her argument, (i.e. 'that you'll find none of this in classic games) gets destroyed by the playboy spreads. The only reason that these kind of graphics weren't used earlier is the technical limitations of the time.

ffs. She should look up 'Custer's Revenge' and tell me classic gaming didn't have a seedy underbelly. I want to belly laugh at her.

I remember there being an official Bloodrayne thing with Playboy. Actual art, not a model cosplaying.

Playboy attempted an unofficial use with a model dressed as Lara, but the rights holders were very against it at the time. https://ghostarchive.org/archive/0SUIL

The court yesterday stopped the magazine using the name Lara Croft and the Tomb Raider logo on the front cover of its August issue alongside nude pictures of model Nell McAndrew, claimed by Playboy to be the real-life incarnation of the character.

Mr Justice Lloyd rode in to save the virtue of the heroine by granting the company behind her an injunction ordering Playboy to apply stickers blanking out her name and the Tomb Raider logo from the cover of 20,000 copies.

The judge had been told by George Hamer, counsel for Tomb Raider trade mark owners Core Design Ltd, that Lara's "squeaky-clean image" would be "tarnished for all time" by any association with soft-core pornography.
