Google AdSense is coming

Posted in: Gaming, No Comments »

Google has their hands on everything and now they’re going after video games. The good people over at VentureBeat wrote an article detailing the process.

Apparently Google has already developed and have started testing an “in-game advertising technology” that will stream ads into popular videogames. A demo of the technology revealed that it’s a simple integration for developers (naturally) and seems to be green lighted for whenever Google wants to unleash it.

Google will call it “AdSense for Games” and won’t leave any type of game out as they will cater to “console games, disk-based PC games, web-based PC games and cell phone games.”

For some people, in-game ads drive them nuts. Personally, I don’t give a shit and actually find it interesting what companies want to shell out money for them. What do all the WorldGaming disciple think? Leave a comment!!!

We already got our pre-orders in!! Continue reading Nike Air Max Beijing 2008 Collection Preview….and WG is very very happy!!!

Great article on the Tech Black Market over at Fast Company:

“Inside the shadowy underworld where rogue employees sell holes in their companies’ software. The buyers: security firms, mobsters, and — surprise — the U.S. government.”

Who says tits, ass and pornstars don’t sell video games? Obviously not THQ, who has given porn star Tera Patrick the massive responsibility of fronting the new Saints Row 2. In the first “dev diary,” Tera Patrick says some shit I didn’t catch about the Saints Row series while taking her clothes off, with gameplay footage edited in for good measure. This teaser is mostly interesting for the fact that you can wear a hot dog suit in Saints Row 2.

Click the link below for the video, ENJOY!!:

Not trying to get to political, but sometimes folks ask for this kinda isht!! Enter Karl Rove, who the House Judiciary Committee has just voted to hold in contempt for failing to respond to a subpoena to face questioning from the Committee on the prosecution of former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman.

The final vote was 20 ayes and 14 nays. With Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) voting “absolutely, 100% aye.”

Amazing……

San Diego Comic Con birthed some dope innovations, but this might take the cake!! Darth Vader’s villainous persona has once again re-inspired by a handful of artists, including Medicom Toys’ 17 inch vinyl featuring all that body to get funky with. But you can’t get these, the pieces were allegedly auctioned off for charitable causes. Yeah!!! for charity…… BOOOO!!! for us……Fresh…..

In this June 26, 2008 file photo, Cheech Marin, left, and Tommy ...

Here’s to the almighty dollar breaking down old fueds!!  Cheech Marin, left, and Tommy Chong (together at Sunset Strip Music Festival opening night tribute event in Los Angeles) have decided to squash their beef and get their smoke on!!   The two will reunite for their first comedy tour in more than 25 years, and we here at the WG offices are so randy about it, we’re rolling fatties till we get callouses.  Cheech couldn’t have put it any better when he told AP Radio that he and Tommy Chong ‘looked at each other going, “If we’re ever going to do something it has to be now because you’re not getting any younger and neither am I.”

Amen brudda, amen…….
