Bungie’s classic Pimps at Sea series has seen its highs and lows during its storied history — Pimps at Sea 64, Call of Pimps: Sea Warfare, Ar Tonelico Navale: Pimps of Ar Sea El — but fans are assuredly in for a treat with the company’s latest iteration: PimpsVille for Facebook! Bungie COO “and trans-media marketing guru” Pete Parsons explains the new project by saying, “I was talking to Mark Zuckerberg yesterday – who just so happens to be a really close friend of mine – and he said Facebook has something like 500 million users. I’m thinking if we can get one dollar from every one of those guys, we can easily make a billion dollars.” Truer words, Pete!
No time has been given for the launch of PimpsVille, but we imagine that Bungie will wanna get out ahead of kids going on summer vacation. Or it’ll never come out, because it’s totally fake, but you never know. Weirder things have happened, right?
