Has anyone seen the commercial for the XBox game Pocket Bike Racer with the Burger King jumping the ramp? If that game takes off, there has never been a more brilliant product placement ever in the history of advertising.

How will the competiton respond? Ronald McDonald in a third person shooter (ala GTA)? Post your suggestions.

I think you nailed it.
GTA:Burger World
You start out slinging fries on the corner and build up your roll till you can afford to take over the local burger joints and expand your empire. There will be rival gangs wearing crowns or wearing their hair in braided pigtails. You'd have to rescue Grimace after he was kidnapped by the Jacks. (Jack in the Box)
You'd find Wendy and make her your *****. It'd be too cool.

it isnt so much product placement as it is burger king produced the damn game, along with 2 others which will be sold exclusively at burger king. Including a stealth action game where you must sneak up and surprise people with whoppers...

You have two ****'s, or are you talking about your balls?

Sorry for bumping this thread, but this joke has been bugging me for the last couple days.

Thanks in advance.

I would have liked "A whopper? more like a mcnugget" better.

McDonalds already has McKids for NES. You can't top that, best game EVER.

When I was in college, one of my philosophy professors flipped out at one point during a lecture, and responded to a benign question with:

"You wanna talk about lies? YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT LIES? How about the myth of Christianity? Iiiiiiit's a WHOPPER!!!"


So, my goal, is to get a videocamera and imagine- then film- as many situations as possible for which the punchline could be "Iiiit's a WHOPPER!!!"

I've done it once. At McDonald's. "I need a burger... a big burger, your best, actually. I just don't know what it's called. I'm worried tha-"

"Ah, sir, you want a BigM-"

(pulling burger king bag from behind my back) "Iiiiit's a WHOPPER!!!"

"Hey, I started out mopping the floor just like you guys. But now... now I'm washing lettuce. Soon I'll be on fries; then the grill. And pretty soon, I'll make assistant manager, and that's when the big bucks start rolling in."
