Can someone get a screenie? I'd be interested to see this!

I bet we can expect similar things with HL2 and Radeon.

It's an ad on the loading screen between continents that's about the size Hamma indicated in the very bottom right corner that has a pentium logo on it and say "Runs great on Pentium 4" or something to that effect. I'd get you a screenshot, but nowhere to host it and I'm at work right now

Honestly, it didn't bother me THAT much. (When I still played) But it still kinda irked me a little. Putting ads in a game is pretty much sticking ads for another product DIRECTLY on your product.

It just doesnt make sense! You want people to like YOUR product, not some by product that may or may not enhance your game.

But as much sense as this doesn't make, it's still only one small ad that doesn't show up during gameplay. If it popped up in a window making the mouse cursor appear consistently evety 10 minutes, THEN I'd be pissed.

quit your bitching please, so many other games have ads in them, like Unreal Tourny 2004 for one.

Wrong. I can't say I know the exact figures but i guarantee it's somethign like for every 5 dollars from advertisement 1 cent goes into development, if that.

Intel paid thousands of dollars to put that ad in there. that money's going to something. I dont think Sony's accounting department is bad enough to have it sent to the new DVD Players Sony's making.

That money STAYS in the SOE budget. Sony gets enough money as it is, I doubt they'll have to scavenge every dollar they get and send it through budgeting hell.
