When I was playing bionic commando, swinging around and feeling badass, I was just sad when I saw that n-vidia or pepsi advertisements were just shoved in your face. I only like in-game advertising like the user above, the ones that don't cram it down your throat. I really hate in-game advertising, as it totally ruins the immersion of the game.

It was very subtle: Octacon had a power mac but they never mentioned it, and you use your Ipod to listen to music in-game, but it wasn't crammed down your throat.

For example having just read about battle front 3 I can't imagine Lucas arts putting up Coke billboards into some of the maps. Games from EA though..... I completely expect it.
