12kill4 Posted June 9, 2009 Question: If you decide to cast your pod all the way from the Leipzig Gaming convention in Germany- will these episodes be call Mein-kampf grenades? (thought I'd start my posting off with a nazi joke as a challenge to Godwin's law...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commodore75 Posted June 15, 2009 Oh, I have another one, or rather a two-part questions: a) What ads don't you want in your games?, and in which games don't you want them? For some reason I get realy uncomfortable when I see military recruitment ads in my "age 3 and up"-rated game*). I guess we have a duty to protect the God-given rights of companies to maxemize thier profits, so I don't realy have a problem with tabacco/booze/pr0n-ads in games rate 10+/13+/etc, but military-ads in todler-rated games ... though if the same ads were to appear in my teen-rated games, I don't think I would have any problem with them. But I guess that's just me. So what about you? *) But I still love that specific game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted June 15, 2009 the answer to both a) and is: all of them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commodore75 Posted June 15, 2009 Aahw, come on, what's wrong with some diet pill ads in Barbie's Horse Adventure, or an innocent Roids™-ad in a wrestling game? And who doesn't want Bacardi ads in their driving games? Dang puritans... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Commodore75 Posted June 15, 2009 My bad. I forgot the sarcasm-tags in my last post. P.S. But my question still stands. P.P.S. I'd also like to hear what the forumgoers have to say. (I know there are people who don't mind military recruitment ads in "3+"-rated games.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted June 15, 2009 if the military wants to recruit people through games then they should make their own game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toblix Posted June 15, 2009 Actually, didn't the US army make World of Goo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commodore75 Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Didn't they also make another game ... a "more realistic" one? "Full [spectrum Warrior]" or something? [EDIT] name of the game, also, maybe not "realistic", but rather give an insight into where they wanted infantry fighting to go. (Looksie! Ain't it cool?)

12kill4 Posted June 17, 2009 Didn't the Army make you breakfast this morning? Didn't the Army make Daikatana? Didn't the Army make you SUCK IT DOWN? Didn't the Army make the Yellow Submarine? Didn't the Army make video games? Didn't the Army make the Army make Army out of the Army? Didn't the Army make nothing? But how did the Army make nothing because nothing can't be something so how can you make it? Didn't the Army make a smaller Army with a pretty, female version of the Army who he met at the Airforce's birthday party last year? Didn't Chuck Norris make the Army? werd.

Commodore75 Posted June 18, 2009 FWIW America's Army 3 is out, so I guess that means USA:ers won't have to worry about recruitment ads in their games, the rest of us OTOH... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LucasTones Posted October 30, 2009 I have a lame question, which is irrelevant but you only have one podcast left: Did any of you guys play LBA2? If you did you surely think it's one of the greatest games of all time and has been sorely forgotten. Beyond Good and Evil was pretty much a copy of that game, with a similar world and very similar plot. Someone needs to resurrect interest in it! Was it way ahead of its time, or am I a ridiculous fool? *sigh* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
