"Welcome to high definition lifestyle" is the first subtitle in the new Consoul Magazine, launching in Germany on 06/03/2007 with a run of 500,000 copies. High definition all right, but I'm not so sure if it's the gaming as much as it's the girl sitting on the john with her panties pulled down, flushing it at the same time. What is she doing anyway, flushing the toilet while still sitting on it? Oh...yeah. OK, never mind.

The press release was translated by Consoul Games for which we deeply thank. The new monthly trend magazine appears in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and is distributed through stores catering to the gaming & internet scene and other selected outlets free of charge. "With Consoul we look directly at the lifestyle of our customers. We address all, the fun of new emerging gadgets, the digital life of the internet, and naturally our outstanding games and films", said Uwe Bassendowski, Managing Director of Sony Computer Entertainment Deutschland GmbH.

Of course you do, and why not put the almost naked girl, peeing and flushing the toilet at the same time on the cover, while you're at it? What better recipe to sell the magazine dedicated mostly to the PS3 than sex? Is there anything that sex can't possibly sell? It figures though, if the PS3 can't do it on its own, maybe naked girls on first magazine issues will.

Although we haven't yet seen what the Consoul Magazine is all about (for now it's just the cover), gadgets, games and films should be presented in the same manner, only different girls, right? Maybe even different panties, not just pink, but black and red.
