Playboy is a monthly magazine, founded in 1953 by Hugh Hefner and his associates. The magazine is published monthly and features photographs of nude women, along with various articles on fashion, sports, consumer goods, and public figures. It also has short fiction by top literary writers. Playboy's use of "tasteful" nude photos is often classified as "softcore" in contrast to the more "hardcore" pornographic magazines that started to appear in the 1970s in response to the success of Playboy's more explicit rival, Penthouse.
In a 1966 presentation for La Choy, the magazine is featured during a Superman-esque introduction which claims that the La Choy Dragon is "sexier than Playboy."
A copy of Playboy can also be seen on the conference table for a Wilson's Meats Meeting Film.
Several artists whose work has appeared in Muppet/Henson productions have also contributed to Playboy.
The Magazine, also known as Playboy, Smut, or Lustful Lali-Ho, is an item in Final Fantasy IV. While never actually said, it is heavily implied that it is pornographic in nature, since the screen turns pink when Cecil reads it. It can only be obtained in the Developer's Office, and since this was not in the initial American release, the magazine could not be obtained.
The magazine actually serves a purpose in the Nintendo DS version. After getting a copy, placing it on a stool in the Developer's Room causes it to be confiscated, one of the requirements for getting the Reach Augment. There are in fact multiple pornographic magazines in this version: the Lustful Lali-ho, being found in the Dwarven Castle, and the Ninja Sutra, several of which can be found in Eblan. On an interesting note, you can use it in battle, but it will not do anything. It is apparently Cecil's favorite magazine.
It should be interesting to note that Cecil is not the only character that can read the magazine. Since any character can be in the lead, then any playable character (except for Tellah and Edward) can read it at any point in the game.
In The After Years, many copies can be obtained. If the player fights the Game Designer in the Developer's Room after giving it a Lustful Lali-Ho, they will sometimes receive a Discovery Book, an item that increases a character's max MP by 50.

Trey Stewart, known as Playboy X, (born 1983, could die in 2008) is a character in the Grand Theft Auto IV and The Lost and Damned. He runs the African-American crack cocaine ring, the North Holland Hustlers.
Contents |
X began his criminal career as a crack dealer in Liberty City, working for Dwayne Forge. Forge ran the Hustlers at the time, controlling the majority of crack cocaine in northern Algonquin and Bohan. When Forge went to prison in 1993, X took over the gang (at the age of 10), and brought it to new heights.
Playboy became one of the premier gangsters in the city, and his success earned him a lavish penthouse in Northwood. Almost immediately Playboy began to turn away from the "old school" values taught to him by Forge and began the 21st century as a 'gangsta', favouring bling and increased reputation over loyalty. He also sought to expand his horizons, becoming friends with cocaine empress Elizabeta Torres and monitoring all drug deals in the city. Eventually he was introduced to Niko Bellic through a heroin deal and the two began a business relationship. Playboy X also makes a brief appearance in The Lost and Damned where Johnny Klebitz refuses to meet Playboy during the party.
The major move between the two involved pressuring Yusuf Amir, an entrepreneur from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Amir was under intense pressure to cooperate with the Mafia, who had shut down his construction site under the guise of a union strike in order to extort funds from him. X believed he could maneuver himself into Amir's favour by employing Niko Bellic to dispatch the mob gunmen besieging the site. Niko cleared out the site in the Playboy X mission "Deconstruction for Beginners", but Amir was unresponsive. Instead of rewarding X with shares in lucrative construction contracts, he permanently closed down the construction site in memory of those who had died. However, it is reavealed in The Ballad of Gay Tony mission For the Man Who Has Everything that Amir continued construction on the soon-to-be Amir Towers.
Eventually Dwayne Forge is released from prison and tensions rise between him and X almost immediately. Playboy ignores Forge and attempts to distance himself from his former mentor, leaving Forge feeling bitter, heartbroken and betrayed. Eventually Forge retakes his former base of operations, the Triangle Strip Club, from associates of Playboy's, the Trunchez Brothers. Playboy is furious and it is clear that the bad blood between the former partners is going to come to a head.
He is voiced by Postell Pringle.
In a mission entitled "The Holland Play", Playboy X offers Niko $25,000 to kill Dwayne Forge. He alleges that Forge is talking behind his back and attempting to usurp leadership from him, even though PBX claims he offered half of the business to Forge. Subsequently, Niko is also hired by Dwayne to kill PBX after word hits the street that there is a contract out on him.
If Niko chooses to kill Dwayne, Playboy has a change of heart, upset that his mentor was killed. He blames Niko's cold-heartedness for the betrayal and severs all ties from Bellic. Later, his answering machine even claims that "you don't know what you got until it's gone." If Niko sides with Forge, he shoots his way through PBX's penthouse and corners him in an alleyway, easily executing him and returning control of the gang to Forge.
If the player chooses to perform an execution with a pistol on Playboy, Niko plants the barrel of the gun directly on Playboy's throat, and pulls the trigger.
As a token of gratitude, Forge gives Niko the apartment Playboy once inhabited, along with the GTA III outfit which was worn by Claude, which can be found in Niko's wardrobe (only in Playboy X's Apartment).
Playboy X claimed that his goal in life was to make enough money to support young African-American youth in Liberty City. He hoped to become a major philanthropist and community hero.
