[quote:9a37c]Ads in games: do you mind them? Personally, I like product placement in full 3D games because it gives me a sense of reality. I'm not looking for "X-brand soda" on a machine in a FPS when the reality could be upped with "Coca-Cola" on there. In other words, as long as the placement is smart (billboards, posters in appropriate spots) then I'm all for it.

Shockwave games? They're a pain in the ass anyways.[/quote:9a37c]



I agree with this guy

I was just anout to say the same thing. 100% agree with that paragraph.

As long as the ads as unobtrusive, I don't care.

Same here, if anything it adss to the realism to see brands you're familiar with. Ads and commercialism are such a big part of everyday life if a games going for a realistic theme thers no reason not to have them.

I don't care.

they are already in some games, so as long as they dont slam a big old Marlboro stamp on a gun in a new FPS then im ok with it.

you see signage on walls in lots of games. If thats all it is then thats OK. As long as it isnt Viagra or Trojan or something along those lines.

doesn't really bother me.

Having other corporations coming into another sector (such as games) and advertising doesn't bother you?

nothin new...ggs buy some racing game and you got sponser shit all over cars, dub magazine rides.

Almost all sports games have mods to place the actual ads in the stadiums, arenas.

i couldnt care, but if you look at those ads in games and go "gosh i really want a coke" after seeing the ad then you should be shot for having a weak mind.

To be honest I'd prefer to have ZERO ads in games.

Games are a place I like to go to to escape reality, I hate advertising with a passion.

If it meant that games would be cheaper I'd be all for it, but somehow I can't see that happening. oOo: plzdie: plzdie: plzdie:
