Wow gamespot, taking it a bit far there don'tcha think? Mcgriddles mark 2 perhaps?
 
Sony = the big mac of consoles. Not very satisfying after the first bite leaving you feeling empty wanting more.
 
If McDonald's came to us and said they'd give us $5K to advertise on the site for the whole year, you bet your ass Grimace and Ronald McDonald would be plastered all over GAF.
 
There's a difference between full out coordinated ads and altering the menu bars and graphics with McGriddle symbols.
 
how much they were able to implement that is almost scary...

this campaign is freaking HUGE... i have seen about 5 different versions of commercials,
and they are constantly being repeated. i bet we will see them every 5 mins during the bowl

Why does McDonalds even advertise?
Click to expand...
Because Wendy's and BK are rivals that they need to compete against. (Arby's and Subway, too)
 
I am getting more and more convinced that McDonalds is hacking in to websites in order to promote thier disgusting foodstuffs.
 
I am sure everyone in America knows where to go if they want to have a heart attack from milk shakes and pseudo meat.
 
You know this sucks and all that and the less I see of McDonalds the better but nothing compares to McGriddles.

It's called McGriddles for chrissakes!

Lewis Black put it best.
"Why do Coke and Pepsi advertise? When was the last time you saw a Coke commercial and thought 'Maybe I'm wrong.'?"

Oh so you because Super Size Me didn't talk about every restaurant in America (I said Restaurant, not fast food), they must be right? I'm sure you'd be surprised by the numbers of thing they put in your food at the restaurant .

I ate at McDonalds last week because my aunt gave me a $5 gift certificate. Big mistake, should have thrown it out. I felt sick and empty minded...

Firefox Sucks?
LMAO

Sure does! Wheelscrolling is much slower in Firefox than IE. Scrolling down huge pages with IE that would take me 4-5 scrolls would take me like 12 in Firefox.

Also when I click on video links, instead of opening them right away in Windows Media Player, it downloads them first, THEN opens them. No thanks.

I actually feel like I'm moving backwards with Firefox, so until they get their act togheter and give me everything that IE has, and THEN some, only then will I use it. I'm very happy with IE and I have absolutely no incentive to change.

Why use admuncher? Just use an edited host file.
Click to expand...

Because that would ban all images from a same domain? And some domains contain both good and bad stuff? Admuncher filters everything and I can customize it to even remove specific elements of webpages that I don't want to see.

You can edit the scroll amount in 'about config'. WMV opens just fine in FF.

As for the host file, most ads are on adservers.

I remember some video files not opening instantly in WMP. Maybe it was mpegs or something. Instead of opening WMP so it would start streaming them, it would download them completely and then open them.

Most ads, but not all. And I don't want to see a single ad when I surf.

And I still don't see why I should stop using IE since I'm perfectly happy with it. There's nothing in IE that makes me go "Gee, I wish this was different/better".

I agree, I absolutely will not touch Firefox until it supports an IDE that allows code to format my hard drive.

WMV open in an embedded wmp, not the standalone WMP. That would actually be very annoying if it did. :lol

Err I was just mentioning that you will not lose site content by blocking adservers.

Ya, I once thought there was nothing better than taking the bus to work.

I like my movies to open in the standalone WMP and I don't consider it annoying.

No, but you will see ads if the adserver is on a same server as the content server.

Bad analogy.

It's actually a good analogy. If you'd ever used Firefox for more then 5 minutes, I don't know how you could live without tabs, gestures, and security that won't make you feel like an inmate bending over in the shower.

Blocking 'ads.msn.com' does not block 'msn.com'.

What if the ads were in, say, 'msn.com/ads"? You'd be fucked.

How would you know? You are still riding the bus.

I tried Firefox for a week. Didn't see anything better about it (and noticed the annoyances mentioned above), so I uninstalled it and went back to IE.

Tabs? Don't see the big deal. I rarely have more than two/three IE windows opened and I don't mind having them in my taskbar.

Gestures? What's that?

Security? Admuncher blocks everything, including those pesky ActiveX install pop-ups. I didn't catch a single spyware in over a year.
