Tired of seeing those in-game ads on your traditional mobile phones? Well you just might be looking at the solution for that right this very moment. Kalador, mobile games and entertainment provider, has developed the FreePlay in-game advertising technology, which allows for non-disruptive in-game advertising.

Gone are those irritating pop-up ads disrupting your mobile game. FreePlay technology allows for various advertising models and strategies like pay-per-view, pay-per-click and other ad-tracking metrics that support both textual and graphical formats for advertisements.

Basically, Kalador has teamed up with advertising agencies from the internet to disperse the ads through the FreePlay system. The games, meanwhile, are available as free downloadables. This ensures a mutually beneficial set-up where the game developers are ensured that they will be getting a stream of relevant ads, as well as revenue. "For as long as their games are played, they earn their advertising revenues." As for the advertisers, they also receive maximum value for their ads fees with the FreePlay system.

Everybody wins, and most important of all, the consumer is happy.

If you've been totally amazed by the visual realism depicted in the recently released Fight Night Round 3 screenshots for the PS3, perhaps this new trailer will blow you away. The only problem is it's too damn short! But that's what a teaser should be, right?

With a catchy tune in the background, the trailer has just enough action that will leave you asking for more. It's almost like watching a real fight on pay-per-view. It starts with boxers warming up for a fight, but without a warning, a quick blow on the face sets the stage for an even more intense exchange of head punches. One massive uppercut ultimately sends the bloodied contender to the floor.

This is just a good warm up until you finally get in the ring and outpunch opponents when the game hits the shelves on December 12.
