SCEA pays to have all that licensed equipment in the game. That's why it wasn't in the game until recently. And why some brands still aren't in the game. They haven't reached the terms needed to allow their product to be used.

And as far as advertising is concerned, real brands ask for money from the company to be shown within the game. Usually isn't the other way around. Only a few brands are willing to pay to be featured within a video game product.

This is one of those areas that would benefit the Show and whatever sponsor was in game if no money had to change hands either way. After a few years of doing it that way, the Show could then become able to be choosy as to who they let in. and even charge for the right to do so.

I brought this up a few years ago. Unfortunately there are legalities with having fake ads as well. Believe it or not. That's why we don't see many.

I was always hoping for fake add, in the same color / style as the real ones.
But if what you say it's true then it's not going to happen.

Too bad, i really like all the work they do. I just don't like seeing too much of the same adds all the time. Somehow it makes the "total color" of the stadium look off (if that makes sense).
There's not enough variation.
But if it's a legal thing then it is what it is.

Glad they made some improvements though I can't say I ever worried about the ads before.

Wow at that Konami advertisement screenshot!

Where some Rogers Centre love Sony?

Wish they could do something like NBA does in myteam. You can upload your own images onto things like the scorers table, floor, etc. I wish the could give us the ability to overwrite their fake adds with our own uploads in franchise and play now.

The stadiums in PYS were fantastic. One of several areas where PYS, even on PS3, had superior broadcast simulation over current gen The Show. See also player models (I'm amazed by what they were able to do on the PS3), camera cutaways (reminds me of international tennis TV direction: no need for constant quick cuts and a use of beautiful slow zoom/fade out shots) and proper intermittent light showers instead of unrealistic steady rain to name a few.

Can't say the jumbotron designs have ever really bothered me in The Show though. It's what goes on them that kills the immersion for me. The graphics they use on them look like clip art and don't really replicate the in-park experience at all. I'd prefer the boards remain static over the current implementation.
