I was just wondering if any of you guys could help me out with my thesus/dissertation/whatever..... Its going to be centred on in-game product placement, and I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of games that have many different brands displayed throughout the game. The only reason that need help, is that I had planned to use pro evolution soccer or fifa 09, but i turned on my xbox yesterday and realised that all the billboards round the edges (eg ben sherman/adidas) had been replaced with adverts for the game that you are already playing.
i am aware that many car games are rife with product placement - especially ones where you use real products on your car, however, i'm more concerned with billboards that appear as you play the game....
other ones that have thus far been considered, but have been deemed unsuitable for various reasons are:
fight night round 3, nba 2k7, burnout paradise, virtua tennis 3, fallout 3......but similar games would be fine.....
Any help would be much appreciated!
On another note, what do you think of product placement on video games?

A little help here please - in-game advertising related
Battlefield 2142 (changing billboard)
PGR4 (but it's more so for realism in a way)
Guitar Hero (vault, etc.)
FNR3 (burger king fight)
Sneak King
Luckily since this is Giant Bomb we have an entire page about this kind of thing. http://www.giantbomb.com/in-game-advertising/92-1900/
That lists all the games entered with some sort of in-game advertising.
