How Would Google Do It

Theres no doubt that with the best programmers in the world Google is capable of developing and improving upon the technology that Massive has. Its also not hard to imagine advertisers paying per thousand impressions (PPM) for their text or image ads to be shown in specific games, much like they do now for specific sites. The tough part for Google, however, would be the distribution of those ads.

As opposed to signing up websites to display their ads by copying some code on to their site, Google would have to work with game programmers throughout the development process. This would be much more time consuming and would be a much larger risk for Google. In the same way that Massive signed the contract with 2K, Google would have to sign large contracts with game developers and work with them for several months to integrate their ads.

This enforces the fact that the main difference between what happened with DoubleClick and what could happen with video games is that it would probably be more work for Google to distribute their ads over multiple channels (i.e. more games). Since each game is programmed differently, there is no game equivalent to the JavaScript used in all AdSense ads. Every game would need to be tailored to Googles ad network individually. Difficult: yes. Impossible for Google: no way.

When Will They Do It?

In my opinion its not a matter of if, its a matter of when. The potential revenue from the gaming industry is too big for Google to ignore. Oh, and if you still arent convinced, consider this: Microsoft, one of Googles main competitors, also produces the Xbox 360. If Microsoft decided to integrate their newly launched adCenter into Xbox games, would it really surprise anyone if Google countered by announcing a deal with Sony or Nintendo to integrate in-game dynamic advertising for the PS3 or the Wii?more

Game Cheats: Are They "Good" to Use?

...cheats face is that by the time they are able to dedicate enough time to the game, a new game that they would rather play is already out on store shelves.

Whether you use game cheats or not, they are undoubtably a great way for amateur gamers to more enjoy and possibly finish some of today's difficult and challenging games. The game cheats dilemma will always be an ongoing battle between those in the gaming community.more

Pixar Cars Game

...and many more. This does not mean that the Pixar Cars game repeats itself identically in each version; there are differences in game play for the PSP and Nintendo DS versions of the game.

The Cars movie game is not just inspired by the Disney and Pixar movie that bears the same name, in many ways it is a sequel of the movie. You can choose which character you want to race as and the story unravels according to your actions. There are many different fun levels of the Pixar Cars game in the Nintendo DS ...more
