Videogame ads are a lost art....

Especially if you're colour-blind.

Grim. Don Draper isn't sending his best.

I don't get it, what does this have to do with it? https://youtu.be/8WYHDfJDPDc

Do they even make video game ads that aren't trailers anymore? The target audience for magazines in 2025 probably doesn't play vidya.

>>715723071 (OP)
based, I saved an absolute ton of these recently. excuse the tumblr filenames

what the ESL are you talking about

>>715724776
NTA but the "ESL" appears to have used capitalization and punctuation better than you. Which is kind of funny.

he's talking about how the ad campaign for mass effect 1 "many decisions lay ahead.... none of them easy" implied a big part of the game would be triaging different crises and distress calls but in reality the game really only has you make two decisions like this: virmire and the batarian terrorist dlc

I miss those kino cinematic trailers they showed in E3. Even if they weren't representative of gameplay, they were fun mini movies or music videos. Nowadays it's just shitty hip hop interweaved with gameplay.

You can stop now btw. Most of these are trash

>>715724889
Yooo still got mine, got the steel case for it that shit would survive a bomb getting dropped on it.

Don't have the charger for it anymore tho

You literally have to kill a party member on Virmire. You can also kill Wrex there. That aside, there's a lot of life/death choices that are of minor consequence, including on Feros ad Noveria. Tell me you didn't play the game without etc etc.

>>715723071 (OP)
That ad and the trailer were so kino. Too bad the game only had a couple actual choices like that but it was effective at setting a tone.

Remember when you were excited for new bioware games?

>>715727871
There's never been a moment in history where that was true.

lost knowledge

I feel like overall we've just stopped really dark shadows, chiaroscuro or whatever it's called. I'm a huge fan of that stuff too

not only vidya ads are lost also:
cheats
periphericals like controllers or steering wheel

>>715723449
Genetic mutants with color blindness shouldn't have human rights, let alone consideration for entertainment. Fucking circus freaks.

typical tumblr faggot quoting his own fucking posts
fuck off faggot

I wish one day we get a space rpg about such a concept. Being a space cop and having to pick and choose your battles. It sounds pretty cool.

>>715727207
i don't know why but i always confuse this game with remember me for some reason

>>715724889
>WinAmp skin
God, I miss it. Musicbee is an ok alternative.

pretencious edge beinge pretencius edge

>>715730297
I still use Winamp because nothing else has that usability in a compact UI.

>>715730318
Did you have a stroke typing that? Did I have a stroke reading it? One of us had a stroke.

>>715730420
I miss grammar nazis too. I miss them, all of them.

Trolling is also an lost art.

Misrepresenting ads is the one thing I don't miss about older games.

>>715729969
What kind of whacky-tobaccy, were they smoking, when they came up with this shit

>>715731201
I thought this was Maximo:Ghosts to Glory but I can tell it's by the same dude that drew that art for that.
