The next Galactic Civilizations II print ad design

Published on Wednesday, March 1, 2006 By Brad Wardell In GalCiv II News

The new full page advertisement is done and being sent off to PC Gamer, Computer Gaming World, and Computer Games Magazine this week.

We decided to take a bit different approach.  If you flip open your favorite game magazine, the typical ad formula (which our first ad followed)  for a one pager is pretty artwork at the top with a paragraph of text at the bottom with a couple of screenshots.  This time, we're doing something that's a lot more "busy".  We wanted to highlight the ship design feature since players seem to really like that feature a lot.  We are also getting ready to produce a 2-page spread series of ads.

 

 Update: Penny-Arcade, Gamespot and other ads now up too!
