Number Two's eyes narrowed and became what are known in the Shouting and Killing People trade as cold slits, the idea presumable being to give your opponent the impression that you have lost your glasses or are having difficulty keeping awake. Why this is frightening is an, as yet, unresolved problem.

I think that ad scares me the most. Her face...

I am getting sick of their ads on here, though. :P

I thought an advertisement was all about, you know, advertising your product.  I don't think they'll be around all that long at the rate they are going, especially if they get the ire of all the web geeks like at codding horror.....

Popcap is the best ever.

Also, I've seen that last ad on a torrent site. You know, there's porn ad after porn ad, and then an ad for Evony online. Except all you see is "TITS TITS TITS FREE FOREVER TITS PLAY THIS GAME TITS TITS TITS evony online btw CLEVAGE BREASTS."

Our world is eventually going to run on estrogen. Cars will be fueled by it, and anyone without a woman in the car will be subject to not moving, ever. Sex will do more than sell, it will control.

For some strange reason all the tits ads were replaced by law firm ads (of course once I hit reply they switched back). lol

That said we haven't talked about Gay Bear Dating enough. This site needs more Gay Bear Dating!

Although in that Annoying Playable Characters thread where some of us veer into side-discussions about wacky Asian diets and skin bleaching trends, a couple of top ads pertained to skin bleaching. 

But, yes, this thread definitely needs mroe Gay Bear Dating.

Btw, I just want to congratulate RPGFan for putting the Argrest War sausage pic front and center of its main page. *slowgolfclaps*

Its no wonder why we keep seeing all these over sekd ads all over the place.

Class act folks. Well played.

Strange... since we put that up, the front page will only give me MegaTen ads. (But I still get Evony on the boards.)

To be fair, I think it's the only pic we had for the game :P

I'll be honest and say I'm still alright with that kind of stiff and that pic is amusing. Love it or hate it, it ultimately did its job of grabbing peoples attention.

Is this in reference to Agarest or Evony? Because the former was Aksys just having fun with the announcement while Evony's is sleazy, misleading garbage.

Edit: Corrected Agarest.

My reaction to that Agarest teaser pic on the Aksys site was "How perverted... I must have this!"

If it weren't an Idea Factory game, the sausage pic would have gotten me to pick up a PS3 for the game.  Sure it's just plain wrong, but I am down with that (as shown by my avatar).
