[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 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 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.
