    As this is AH...

    Q. If the wife is battering me around the head with the frying pan for playing too much, do I put down the joystick, ignore the adverts and give her flowers or do I put down the joystick and go the pub?

    Call everyone 'f****ts' when they start going over the top with their 'awesome' ideas.

    You could beat her into submission with your joystick?

    Some questions:

    1. On a scale of 1 - 2, exactly how big a pack of c-units are EA? (Ans=2)

    2. "Have you ever considered anything other than a virtual life"?

    3. "Video game piracy. Its cheap and easy, good times! Its gonna rape the industry therefore leading to no new games, bad times!"

    Do you feel the insertion of adverts, subliminal or more obvious, are an un-necessary interference in the game and if so, would they be considered to guilty also of spoiling your game play?

    Does the adverts take capitalism too far?

    Does in game advertising provide an opportunity for younger children to become more social aware of their monetary environment or does it just make them more aware of the commercial side of life and the items that they could be lacking in their life that might provide supposed fulfilment?

    Would the prossie thats hiding under the bed from the wife, actually come out from there just to see a game advert?

    That's more for those mindless marketing people who get to choose between 12 different types of moodily lit toothpaste.

    I'm sure there's plenty of questions about which advertising media to use, TV adverts, game conventions, PC magazines, free demos, dedicated websites, sponsoring sci-fi / target market audience programmes/events.
