Summer lull in gaming industry: bring out the babes

I know this seems like a cheap post to get some hottie image on the blog, but there is an actual purpose behind it. There's a lull in up-coming games launches for the next two months. That is, except in one area: 'top 10' lists of video game babes. Everyone's at it, it seems, from IGN to Stuff and even Playboy, which is preparing its specially commissioned 2008 list as we speak (no insider information on who's in it, by the way). Ayane (pictured left) from Tecmo's popular Xbox game Dead Or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball is one of those who regularly makes the list.
