Linked.

It's not that big a deal as long as it stays within the context of the game. Burnout has ads for all kinds of stuff but it makes sense given the game.

Reminds me of Need for Speed Underground 2 where you'd see ads all over town like Best Buy or Old Spice. As long as they don't interfere in the game or become REAL obvious then it's fine.

I couldn't agree more. I think I would vomit on myself if the game I was playing suddenly became a commerical that I paid for. It doesn't bother me if a character is drinking a Coke and doesn't think twice about it cause that's what we do in the real world. Ofcoarse, if the game takes place in modern society or the future and doesn't turn into "Hey, is that a Coca-Cola product?" "Why yes it is. It tastes great and it really squashes my thirst" "I guess you can't beat the real thing huh?"

*insert Coca-Cola Classic jingle*

game continues...

Or any desert level:

Your character says "Man it's hot out here"

Suddenly some random character shows up

"Need help to fight that stinky sweat caused by extreme heat? Here, try this stick of Old Spice. If you don't like it, I'll buy you a stick of the other brand you use!"

as long as the ad pertains to the game in some way, and the item advertized can be bought with ingame gold, and the ingame gold is found not bought, i have no problems with it.
