If you’ve ever played Rainbow Six: Vegas online for the Xbox 360, you would notice some cool things, especially in Dante’s and the Calypso Casino. I’m talking about the marketing. In the middle of the Calypso casino floor, there stands a white Dodge Charger R/T, the Dodges are the only vehicles that appear in the Single Player story mode, except for the Helicopters. We also have many ads on the Casino walls, just like you would find in a real casino. Ads for Superbad and 300 are up the last time I played, with a 300 Billboard that can be easily seen when you spawn at the Rooftop Skylight in the Calypso. Really great marketing, and it also gives it a feel of authenticity, not playing in a casino with generic posters, but real live things updated daily. The next big step in Video Game marketing, is probably getting the corporate giants who put their ads in professional ballparks, football fields, and hockey rinks to actually put the same ads in the virtual stadium in the exact same spots. I can see EA doing it very soon.

Room 1409
July 19, 2007So I was with my cousin in Germany, and she was telling me about how she was on the American Base, and some D.O.D. kids were hanging out, and then all of a sudden two really “ghetto” kids got in a fight, and one of them yelled
“WATCHU GONNA DO, MOVE ME DOWN ON YOUR TOP 8 ON MAHSPACE??”
It was seriously, the funniest story I ever heard. Well, I don’t have myspace because its gay, but I do have a facebook, and the “Top Friends” application. Today I was moved down by that “friend” see below post. I refer to him as friend because nobody here knows him, okay his name is Eddy. Seriously, he moved me down on his top friends list.
