So wee've all seen ads on newspapers, billboards, the internet and TV.  But of course, you thought that the games industry must be safe from ads (not including the ones that show up when you start a game), right?

Well, here comes Google again, to try and take over the gaming world as well.

At least it's Flash games for now, but don't be surprised if your favourite FPS tries to sell you viagra when your mind is focused on delivering headshots (try not to shoot the ads, I doubt they'll break).


Okay, ads have been in games for a while, though not on such a mass scale.

damn ads are so annoying.. i won't click them anyways, so don't motherfudgeing show them to me -__-

battlefield 2142 featured in game ads...the only ones that I ever saw was for Intel quad core cpu..they were billboards in the city, just like in a real city so it wasn't obtrusive, and made me feel a little bit more at home...but in the future...HA...so either no one else wanted in, or intel said they wanted to be exclusive advertisers.

I don't know...if they do it like in 2142 its not bad, and would make things better if they lowered the price of the game..which they did not for 2142 :(
