      I was thinking the same - i hadn’t realised that it ever went away (as I don’t play the genres traditionally associated with in game ads).

      I remember when Quake Live introduced it, but it never really gained any traction.

      A popular server-side mod for Counter-Strike (the 1.6 era) introduced in-map texture substitution for advertising as well… but I think it was pissed on by the community so much that it never saw widespread use.

      Sounds like the time is right to try again.
