Don't know if it will work?
But it's something that is welcomed from me and i usually hate adverts in games. But i also hate drunk drivers even more. |

I have been known to play a few 'Online games'.
A few of the games are supposed to contain these type of advertising gimmicks...
Non of them work, the advertising that is.
There was an outcry not too long ago by a group of people who paid for advertising & never had a single ad shown within games...
Looks like these folks have just thrown a good chunk of change out the window. |

I'm with you..... not sure it will work, but it certainly couldn't hurt. |

Plenty of companies sticking ads in games, so why not with a message worth while?
It won't do anything though because people switch off or ignore it. Then again, you can get Far Cry, Prince of Persia etc for free that have adverts in the menu screen...and out game has an advert as such in it, not that we got any money for it. |
