Gamespot Advertising Gets a Little Niche-ey
Koobert | 5:19 AM on 05.22.2008 4 comments


The Penny Arcade Adventures review causes some interesting items to come up in the keyword-based advertising that comes up in Gamespot.



The latest Adventures in Lolo cheats? HOLY HELL! That bitch Lala is gonna get her ass saved now that Lolo is buffed out with the hella 1337 cheats. I am so gonna burn through those dozens of puzzles now. Maybe those dawgs over at alottoolbars are gonna hook me up with some puzzle solutions, what what.

Upon further reflection, though, the bit under that is another interesting piece of advertising. I am not sure how gloating really helps with your business plan. I hope your face gets broken, jerk.

As a complete aside, I think I will be downloading the Penny Arcade game. A good story is usually good enough for me, and knowing that it's turn-based rather than a Kingdom Hearts clone that I thought it would be gives me some comfort. Anyone tried it yet? Good? Bad? Worthwhile?

The first thing that I'm getting next month, though, is D, D2, and Enemy Zero... I'm gonna put my Saturn to some good use.
