Spam me with the timeline... .Rainbow Six 3 advertises porn

This is news to me... Read no further if you've seen this before.


Quote:

About two-thirds of the way through the game, there's a level set in a garage with posters adorning the wall. The URL at the bottom of each of those posters links to a Web site featuring graphic images, hundreds of links to XXX pictures and the welcome message "Welcome to Interracialporno!"

A multi-player version of that same level can be freely downloaded via Xbox Live and played immediately.

In any situation, this would be a public relations black eye. In the case of "Rainbow Six 3," it's a little more embarrassing. The game, which has been lauded by critics, has been a strong seller at retail. The Xbox version of the game has sold over 220,000 units since it hit shelves in October, according to The NPD Group.

Texan Tony Ashcraft was one of the early buyers of the game and noted the URL as he played. Thinking the link might feature ancillary information on the game, he told me he typed it into his browser, only to find no one owned the domain. On Nov. 22, he bought it and immediately filled it with porn links.
