    Have you seen the Doodle Jump ad.
    Its seems a little immature or absurd?
    The "Its better than sex" part

    I find it a little absurd to have that in a ad.
    Let alone the developer has the word in his ad.

    No offence arn, that's what I think

    EDIT:

    Dont go flaming me please!

    I don't like the ad either. Different reason tho - the 'fake review' style of it shouldn't be allowed here.

    I guess.. I wasn't aware it had an official name :D It reminds me of when EGM was still alive; they had some of those pretty regularly at the end and they always pissed me off.

    I think it's a great ad. Made me laugh. That's the part that made me buy the game to tell the truth. It's not like it's a bad word or anything. Just be mature and don't take things so seriously :)

    agree it's a bit borderline due to the look-alike-ness of it. live and learn.

    That's not a question. I'm not sure how to respond.

    This is what I mean. You take things too seriously. If I was serious I wouldn't have put a :) next to it.

    They have paid for the ad space and so they are surely entitled to ad space. If you don't like the ad, send the developer a message ([email protected]). It is standard to assume that for every complaint received, ten more angry customers remain silent. So if they have a competent marketing department, they will take you seriously. You can also protest with your purchasing power by not purchasing the game. Might I suggest PapiJump as an alternative?

    this ad is great, by the way I prefered "Cautious: Don't try playing this game while driving"
    THAT made me really laugh, about sex is ok and funny ;) great looking ad by the way

    I believe that the sex thing came from someone who reviewed the game in the app store and put that as their title, they didn't just pull it out of the air tryna be innapropriate (which imo they weren't)
