[QUOTE=TheHydra;40300249]it makes me mad when people do things i don't like on the internet[/QUOTE] if people like this (read: me) didn't exist, internet forums would be boring as shit agree-fests. think of me like a jaguar or something, pouncing on the docile packs of white teenaged gazelle. or a gnat or something. i think that's more fitting considering the fact that i'm not even arguing about important things. [editline]16th April 2013[/editline] a tactcal camouflage bloom-covered always-online slim jim sponsored jaguar with john ravioli's smug face tattooed on my ass, and shiny teeth because of crest toothpaste. yeah, that's it.
i dont know what the bleeding fuck you are on about
[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;40295266]Halo has Doritos Call of Duty has Mountain Dew Sim City does Toothpaste. Wonder what it would be for other games. Maybe Cheap Carnie food for Bioshock Infinite.[/QUOTE] Well, at least Simcity went with a product that's good for you :v:
EA's making a smart move. Once the casuals have finished playing their cod and rotting their teeth with their gamer fluid, they can sit back and relax with their Simcity and Simcity sponsored toothpaste [editline]16th April 2013[/editline] ™

[I]brilliant!![/I]
EA keeps saying if people don't like their decisions they should vote with their wallets. Then they point to all the things they've sold to say everyone likes it. In reality people just want some toothpaste.
advertising in games is funny and i hope it happens more
Whats next? Coca-Cola for the Fallout games?
[QUOTE=SelfishDragon;40295319]It's healthier than Mountain Dew I guess, I don't really get why anyone would be angry about this though. What harm can be done from them doing something like this?[/QUOTE] it's the most random fucking thing that you'll never buy in high quantity video games + toothpaste = what the fuck
[QUOTE=VTG;40304104]it's the most random fucking thing that you'll never buy in high quantity video games + toothpaste = what the fuck[/QUOTE] Unless a hurricane is coming, you don't need high quantities of Mountain Dew, Doritos, Slim-Jims, OralB, or anything of that level. I don't have a problem with this or the Nissan thing. Haven't played SimCity, but apparently parks act the same as the Nissan thing. There isn't any promotional buildings in this one, so I find 0 problem with this. A reward for products that I buy is a plus, even if I don't have the game. I'm not going to stop drinking Mountain Dew, eating Doritos, snapping into Slim-Jims, or brush my teeth with OralB because EA/Activision/Microsoft/Whoever puts DLC codes in them.

Do you find that they are the ultimate gamer snack?
[QUOTE=TheHydra;40304880]Tell us more about how you would like to snap into a Slim Jim®, "The freeman". Do you find that they are the ultimate gamer snack?[/QUOTE] Slim-Jim®'s are terrible "gamer snacks." The quality of a Slim-Jim® differs between box to box and stick to stick. One box may have crunchy Slim-Jim®s while another may have them taste like they weren't even cooked. They are pretty good as a on-the-go snack or something juicy to dull your hunger, but normal beef jerky would be better for "gamer"s. Lasts longer and arguably tastes better. The only time you can actually [I]snap[/I] into a Slim-Jim® is when you either get a good 15 pack, or buy the 2/$1 ones at the convenience stores. Also what the fuck are gamer snacks. The only time I saw anything that were labeled as "gamer snacks" were really shit gummy candy at a Barnes & Nobles™ checkout. If you want me to talk about Barnes & Nobles™ I will gladly do that too.
