Product placements in games
« on: January 10, 2018, 02:37:52 PM »
So last night.. I was streaming a session of NBA JAM on twitch.. and in the middle of the stream I came across an ad for a pizza joint on the background... one of my viewers did some research as I streamed and found out its a real pizza joint in Chicago..

what other games had hidden/not so hidden product placements by their developers.. or games based on real life locations.. would love to look into this.

I know when you beat MKII you can get a Revolution X ad if you turn it on

Hahaha.. talking about BLANT ADVERTISING..

what about location  wise.. like the pizza joint in NBA JAM.. are there others? I know in street fighter II - the golden nugget for balrogs' stage.. thailand spots for the other bosses..

there are obvious big title new games in places like hollywood - but im looking for more easter eggs .. like this pizza joint was probably one of the devs favorite places..

any stages or locals that are "hidden" in the games that people normally would miss.
