Valve Settles Subway Advertising Issue

Gamasutra reports that Valve and IGA have settled their legal issues in the wake of the Subway advertising issue. From the article: "The joint statement explains 'an amicable resolution of differences regarding in-game advertising in Counter-Strike', which 'also absolves IGA's advertisers and IGA's advertising agencies from any liability', but does not specifically mention whether IGA will be permitted to run similar campaigns in the future."

Well, there's your problem.

You're not supposed to eat it. ;-)

The terrorists are still holding up in the Subway (tm). I told my CO this was bad; we couldn't possibly take out those filth while protecting the delicious and low-fat subs with less than six grams of fat each. It's downright impossible to hurl a flash-bang into that proximity without scalding at least a loaf or two of that freshly baked bread that comes in your choice of french, white, wheat, or new multi-grain! What are they thinking?! We should leave this place to the radicals, let them enjoy the new Subway salads with a variety of low-fat and carb-free dressings to choose from. Instead, we should go to one of the many greasy burger-joints where we will dine on fare that has up to 300 grams of fat (mostly trans fat!) per serving! What use is a silences M16A2 when healthy and delicious food is on the line?

Gabe didn't want to go on the Subway diet.

This was more out of fear he'd have to curb his eating habits.
