Re: Ads in Games
Actaully sundance psychologically its more complicated than that. The name brand is stuck in your head. So even if you dont want it, doesnt mean it hasnt effected you.

Re: Ads in Games
I'm with Toomas, as long as it's out of the way. Ad revenue can help pay for the seemingly rising cost of games.
