Video Game Ad of the Day: Rise of the Robots
by Matt Keller on Oct.01, 2011, under Video Game Ad of the Day
The game which pretty much defined deceptive advertising in the video game industry.
Rise of the Robots is infamous for its pre-release promotional campaign, which feature some pretty amazing (at the time) computer generated graphics. Of course when people actually loaded the game up to play it, they were presented with a smelly and pitifully basic fighting game. This ad, which is quite different to the rest of the campaign, is for the US release of the 3DO version.
