GTA posters reach Denver |
Ó
A few moments ago, in fact just a few Incubus songs ago, we posted up an article about GTA: Vice City advertisements creating ruckus in suburban Boston. While Beantown was hostile about the ads, citizens of Denver, Colorado aren't reacting...for now.Apparently, Rockstar Games also entered into a deal with Regional Transport District (RTD), the authority which operates public transit services in eight counties in the Denver-Aurora metropolitan region. We also heard that the GTA posters are actually the first public ads for any videogame in the state of Colorado. Hmm, we wonder how they would react. We wonder if that Jack Thompson will go there and help rally the residents like what he did in Boston.
We know it's just a poster and you may think that it's a waste of time or post. Well, it's just that we couldn't help but wonder what is wrong with these people. Just imagine if every city and state all across this country would rise up and protest every time they spot a videogame advertisement.
We know it's silly and unlikely, but the gaming industry is being scrutinized again not only here in America, but also in other countries. It's just that we can't help but wonder. Oh well, we guess we'll just find our missing "Make Yourself" album...

incubus are gay

3RD
..but the fact that some people are bound to have a hissy fit over it, i.e. Jack Thompson.
the poster is nice, i have it in my room catched at the games convention in leipzig :D
ur all a bunch of gay ***** smokers that love to run throught corn fealds naked backwards
This is off topic. Jack Thompson collected much of his initial material from Janet Reno. So what? If the liberals in Boston hate the ad, what does that say?
I live in Boulder, which is a town close to Denver that has those RTD busses. People are pretty against advertisements in Colorado. There's a law against all billboards in Boulder and I was really surprised to see the ad for GTA because as the post says, the GTA posters are the first public ads for any videogame in the state of Colorado. I don't see how this is post worthy news though. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if people in Colorado took the time to complain about the ads.
Um, the article (and various posters) are wrong. There were GTA:LCS ads at Denver International Airport above the concourse escalators, and there have been other game ads in public places in CO.
They allow this stuff on TV but they scream at us when we put them in our public transportation?
