I have only played a handful of modern video games, but in one of them a radio played a commercial for a Viagra-type product called ENGORGE. It was done straight, but was hilarious, and every time they said ENGORGE, it was done in a loud booming voice with a lot of echo.
I thought it was a commercial you can listen to on the car radio in Grand Theft Auto IV, but I can’t find it in any listing of commercials in the game or anywhere else.
Anybody got a clue what this is from?
Borderlands.
If not, I would suggest YouTube as a possible search area.
To continue the idea to other games, Mass Effect 2 had a bunch of these, which were sometimes hilarious.
Here are the Elcor Hamlet Commercials:
Mass Effect 3 had one: “For a fresh spreadable alternative, try McSorley’s Cloaca Magarine–made from free range organic verren!”
For those wondering, a verren is an unholy combination of lizard and wolf.
Mass Effect 3 (and maybe the others) also had parody trailers for their “Blasto” series of action films. Imagine a monotone giant jellyfish reciting Arnold-esque lines.
To be more exact, Borderlands 1 DLC: The Secret Armory of General Knoxx. The female assassin you are working with conceals her messages within those ads.
“Has a Prothean descended from Heaven? Because this one would enjoy Enkindling that.”
Ah, I had forgotten the radio messages from Borderlands 1 DLC.
Thank you.
The Champ at this kind of stuff were the old You Don’t Know Jack games. I used to love to listen to the end credits for that stuff.
