Remember back when people said Myth on PC was selling out? (Destiny)

I’m with Fooch. It’s one of the big reasons I’ve steered folks away from the Director’s cut. There’s a very strong Kojima element that was lost with the generic brands.

Off the top of my head, the only product placements I recall were the iPod in MGS4, and some random brand of instant noodles in MGS3. I wouldn't say either were 'major elements' in the experience.

Every game has a combination of sensible product placement (iPod, Sony gear, like phones and Walkmans), overindulgent-but-fits (Big Mama’s Triumph motorcycle and the Regain 24), or stupid, but funny (Monster energy drink and the Famitsu magazines). It’s a long-running shtick (and don’t get me started on Peace Walker).
