So my therapist told me that I needed to cut back on criticizing everything I come across that seems out of place.  He suggested maybe surrounding myself with things that I find to be positive, rather than negative, and perhaps share those with the ones I care about deeply.  Well I tried to explain what goes on here at GGP on Wednesdays, but he was too busy grumbling while looking at my file.  For a guy that looks like a cranky George Lucas with a paddle shoved up his ass left in from his fratboy days, he sure is one to talk to be giving me the tree-hugging hippy crap as a measure to better my mental health.

But, because I won’t dismiss any advice given to me, even by hypocrites, I bring to you today… weird-ass ads that I like, and so should you.

These days, when you open up any video game magazine and see advertisements for the latest games, you… wait a minute; the interwebs made those obsolete!  Okay, fine, some of you probably still read game magazines. Veteran gamers will tell you, advertisements in game mags aren’t what they used to be.  The demographic has not only changed, but also matured to something a buttload smarter than what it was back when you had a photo of some guy dressed as a knight raising a fake sword at a plastic dragon that was probably shot in some warehouse.  Yes, the final product was enough to convince at least a few hundred kids to blow their allowance on that really subpar Nintendo game.  These days, there’s a budget actually invested in marketing and advertising that afford people who know what they’re doing.
