I find it really weird that in NHL24 they have very limited ads and most of them are just EA’s own shit. As a hockey fan, it’s actually a little jarring because real arenas are just plastered with ads for a variety of shit. Kind of a weird thing to complain about, but I mean… It’s trying to look as real as possible; having real-world ads in the real world way goes a long way to accomplishing that, IMO.
Plus I think it would be cool as hell to see local businesses advertised based on the arena. It would add to the feel of realism, while also benefitting those local businesses.
Right on the front of the console, with the red banding. The system didn’t come with it. It was only needed for one game (DKC64), which it came bundled with.
I remember Thor saying that not tying a single player campaign to a server would be bad for developers and Louis barely covered that statement here. How? How would keeping single player and any server-based systems separate hurt the dev? Just plan for this from the beginning. 🤦♂️
Word of mouth. YouTube. Pretty much anything that isn’t an actual ad because the only games that I usually see ads for are games I do not give a shit about.
There is one I remember hearing about a while back and I want to find it again that was really dope because it was a full on simulator and had a easy to use builder to build your own tables. People were recreating actual tables for it, though only those in the public domain.
