Manwin Aquires Digital Playground



(LUXEMBOURG, LU) — Manwin has signed a deal to acquire Digital Playground’s assets.

With the deal, Digital Playground founder and director Ali Joone, CEO, and President Samantha Lewis will continue to oversee the Canoga Park, California, studio.

Other terms of the deal, including acquisition price, were not disclosed at post time.

“To me this deal is no different from the acquisition of Pixar by Disney,” Joone said, “the consumer is going to see more blockbusters, big-budget productions, and it’s our goal to create the next genre of adult entertainment. This acquisition is a marriage between two industry leaders. Adult entertainment is changing and Manwin has a lead on technology.”

Lewis said that there are “no plans” to change the studio’s signature formula.

“The Digital Playground vision of its contract stars will remain unaffected, with Manwin only supporting them to reach beyond what they think is possible,” she said. “They understand what makes these women unique, and plan to support them in their own endeavors, while remaining Digital Playground exclusive contract stars.”

Fabian Thylmann, Manwin’s managing partner, said that “Manwin’s vision for growth has always been about diversification and building a portfolio that includes the strongest brands in the adult entertainment industry.”

“Digital Playground is a company and brand that has proven to be just that. It is unrivaled and has been ahead of the game since its inception. We look forward to building on the brand with the same passion and dedication that has brought it to its current height.”

Tomb Raider XXX Trailer Starring Chanel Preston Online Now



CHATSWORTH, Calif. — The SFW trailer for “Tomb Raider XXX: An Exquisite Films Parody” is available to view on Kotaku.com.

The site holds a 24-hour exclusive on the trailer, which offers video footage of Chanel Preston as gaming icon Lara Croft.

“Kotaku.com is extremely selective when it comes to covering the adult industry, even though the video game and porn markets generally share a consumer pool,“ Exquisite Films owner Jerry E said.

“We are honored they requested an exclusive on the first trailer for ‘Tomb Raider XXX.’ It demonstrates the reach and visibility this movie has prior to its release and speaks volumes for the record numbers we are expecting to ship.”

Writer/director Jordan Septo utilizes many of the popular characters from the game for “Tomb Raider XXX: An Exquisite Films Parody.”

Adult stars cast in the roles include Lea Lexis (Jacqueline Natla), Kagney Linn Karter (Amanda), Lee Stone (Larson), Gracie Glam (Mia), Nicole Aniston (Julia), Dani Daniels (Tamara), Derrick Pierce (Pierre Dupont), Anthony Rosano (Alistair), Evan Stone (Frank), and Danny Mountain (Sam).

“We already knew Chanel Preston was slated to play Lara Croft herself — and given the look of her (safe-for-work) publicity photos, she’s actually a pretty great match for the character,” Kotaku.com said. “Preston has already taken on the role of Wonder Woman in ‘The Justice League of Pornstar Superheroes’ so she’ll be no stranger to doing it on camera while dressed up as a strong female icon.”

To view the SFW (safe-for-work) trailer of “Tomb Raider XXX: An Exquisite Films Parody,” click here.

On Jan. 31, Exquisite Films will upload the trailer to YouTube.com.

‘XXX Truth or Dare’ will spice up your Valentine’s Day

‘XXX Truth or Dare’ will spice up your Valentine’s Day

(LOS ANGELES, Calif. — January 27, 2012)
What can guarantee a little Valentine’s Day action that roses and chocolates can’t? A naughty little board game called XXX Truth or Dare. The sophisticated and highly stimulating game is hot off the presses and shipping just in time for Valentine’s Day, and a special sale will spice things up even more.

The company behind the game recently announced its core lineup of products, and there’s a version for anybody willing to get wild.

The flagship XXX Truth or Dare caters to straight couples and singles, and two all new LGBT-friendly versions were recently unveiled: “Just for Girls” (Lesbian) and “Men Only” (Gay).

All versions are available for purchase now at: http://www.xxxtruthordare.net.

As part of the recently announced Super Valentine’s Day Sale, all XXX Play Kits (a $35 value) are now on sale for only $15. The Play Kits will complement any XXX Truth or Dare adult board game or just add a bit of spice to that special night. Included in each kit are 8 items to keep participants busy all in one night, in private or not.

Each kit includes: a seductive mask and whip to allow you to take or lose control, an edible thong and two edible paint tubes which helps when a bit of creativity and play is needed, special “cock rings” (3 different sizes), a vibrating waterproof G-Spot toy, a few finger toys, and finally some knee-high stockings.
Based loosely around the original Truth or Dare concept, this sexy adult board game involves body parts, oil, food, drink and lots of sexual tension. This is not the average erotic adult board game with gentle teasing and kinky euphemisms, XXX Truth or Dare is a “down and dirty” adult board game designed for singles and couples who are confident, sexy, and willing to try anything in front of others. In fact, every player is guaranteed to get lucky. The real challenge is actually finishing the game!
The game comes with a large 24”x18” board size featuring engaging and alluring graphics, as well as dice, cards, an elegant hourglass and lots of sexual fun. Add in the accompanying XXX Play Kit, and take things to the next level.
While everyone lucky enough to play XXX Truth or Dare is already a winner, the first to actually reach the end of the board becomes the Master of the game, and all players must submit to his/her will. All players then have to do what he/she tells them, whatever and to whomever that may be.
XXX Truth or Dare is also the perfect ice breaker, and brings great fun and guidance to an already “sexual” experience. Some of the kinky actions include “lean over and lick a pussy” and “masturbate in front of everyone.” With 75 highly sexual truth and dare questions, the game play is always fresh and always kinky.
Swingers lifestyle site Top10Swingers.com had the following review: “We tried this game and we LOVED it! Talk about a party starter! This game will get you naked and naughty in no time so make sure everyone playing is on the same page! Is this a must have party game? YOU BET IT IS!”
The halls were abuzz over XXX Truth or Dare at the recent XBIZ 2012 Retail Expo in Los Angeles among retailers and distributors. The energetic startup producing the sophisticated, high-class game entered the B2B convention merely to dip its toes in the water and test the market, but ended up selling orders for nearly 75% of its entire inventory and immediately restocking.
Industry legends Ron Jeremy, Misty Stone, Alec Knight and James Bartholet were also on hand at the booth to show their enthusiasm and support for the game, sharing spicy anecdotes from late night sessions.
At the expo, XXX Truth or Dare secured international and national distribution links, and are in talks now for exclusive European and Australian distribution with two very prominent companies.
The company is looking forward to supporting new distributors and retailers interested in diversifying their inventory with the games.
