its funny and it gives them more money.

although with this much ads id think they give this game out for free

its something that wont change the gameplay, and is it really going to annoy you that much if instead of a can ration you see a moutain dew can?

not only is it something you can relate to, but its also kind of interesting because you'll know exactly what it tastes like haha.

If you *absolutely* have to have it in there, AT LEAST use logos, etc. from the time period. Peace Walker is supposed to happen in the 70's. Mt. Dew didn't use that logo until a lot later than that.

Anachronism FTL.

The first thing I thought when I saw this was "This reeks of Kojima". Like when he got Playboy and Apple to sponsor MGS4, and when he was trying to get coke or pepsi to sponsor Drebin's soda. I love it.

@thatartguy: Have you played MGS? Clearly you haven't because if you had then you'd understand Kojima's sense of humor. To him and with him Anachronism FTW

AFTERTHOUGHT: I wonder if we'll see Mountain Dew Game Fuel return with Snake's Face on it? I hope so. I loved that stuff.

ya id love product sponsorship; it just makes it all the more fun to see like a pizza hut ad somewhere

oh yea and those saying its the 1970's... you do realize this game is about a war torn spy who saved the world from a nuclear threat (shagohod or whatever) while maintaining his badass factor.

i don't think it needs to throw points towards realism ^^
unrealistic games are sometimes awesome : )

... not just the solid series. I understand Kojima. I absolutely hate product placement, especially if it's shoehorned in. It fit in MGS4. Playboy is around and people have iPods. It looks horribly shoved in here. Of course it's going to rip me out of my immersion when the setting and the product is separated by 30 years. It's like watching a movie set in 1955 and seeing a person driving a Prius. It might look more than a little out of place.
