When can we see some screenshots and a movie of the 360 version in action ? All the current screen shots say 'Current Gen' in the bottom corner, which I guess means that none of them are from the 360 !
Oh Yeah - The 'Game Information' links for this page are broken they take you to a different game completely :-)

Smith cites the blatant product placement in "I, Robot", where the character played by Will Smith (no relation) (probably) shows off his Converse boots, as an example of what the team is desperately trying to avoid.
Why did he cite "I, Robot" when he could have cited Chaos Theory. Anyway, sounds good so far. |

NEWSFLASH:
IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO SEE ADVERTS IN-GAME BOYCOTT THE GAME. Not exactly tricky is it? Well, unles the game is really good, then it will be hard to boycott this. Just think, if you BUY it, it sends a message out to publishers... We, as gamers will accept it... Then it'll be 2 minute commercials (unskippable) between levels... |

Game sounds brilliant, hope it comes out on time.
"One similarity with previous games, however, is that Double Agent does feature in-game advertising, which isn't good news for those who didn't enjoy being encouraged to buy chewing gum in previous games. We didn't spot any Wrigley's ads..." It was Airwaves. There's no way I can forget those Airwaves chewing gum packets inserted very obtrusively into every cutscene. "Oh look, it's an Airwaves packet right in front of the camera!" "Oh look, it's an Airwaves blimp!" Yes, this paragraph was sponsored by Airwaves. I remembered it, so the advertising kinda worked, but it made me want to boycott the brand, so actually it didn't. |

3000 polys for Sam's head?!? It's not as if I'm planning on staring at his head all the time, why don't they put those 'spare' polygons into something else? His head looked pretty good in Chaos Theory.

The caption to the VERY FIRST screnshot: All these screenshots are from current-gen versions - the X360 game is still under wraps for now. seems to confirm your theory... :roll: |

Why would Nivea want to advertise their stuff to videogame playing wankers?
--- Ooooh. That's really funny. :D |

Personally, I'm not fussed by in game advertising. If you walk around london, you're bombarded with "buy me! no, buy me!" crap. I want a realistic game, and a city without adverts not realistic at all.
Boycotting the game is just shooting yourself in the foot, as the man said it's a fact of life now - give me in game adverts over an extra £10 on the price any day, thankyouverymuch. It's not like I'm actually going to BUY any of the products, but as far as I'm concerned, if Nivea want to waste their money and get Splinter Cell IV in my xbox then it's fine by me. |

The 360 is out. Shouldn't it be Current Gen then?
Everyone knows Next Gen isn't Current Gen until the PS3 appears ;) Incidentally this looks like an updated Manhunt to me. |
