If you had this ad playing on your vehicles radio in game while you were driving you'd you get out of it?

No...
I always have the radio playing in saint row, I actually preffer it.
Even sat in a car for a few hours just listening to a radio station once while i was too busy to actually play. Radio in game is just fun i've always found :D

If it was on repeat constantly then I'd be annoyed obviously -.-

man that commercial is annoying! I want to stab my eyes out when i see or hear it. If the ads were that bad and made noise then i would be mad about. Since they are only images i could care less, won't be spending anytime looking at ads. I will be to busy paying attention to the battle.

I have to say that late at night when this commercial comes on it really pisses me off, and its usually followed by its associated product that also repeats its slogan. There are good commericals like the geico cavemen that make you laugh a bit but they don't sell car insurance; on the other hand there are commercials like these that are so annoying they make you never want to buy their product even if it cured cancer you'd avoid it. I don't understand how a company could pay a marking/ad pr department to come up with this as their best idea and then have them accept it for the ad campaign.

Because it makes people start threads in unrelated pc game forums. People talk about the commercial ALL the time. That is GOOOOOOD advertising to companies. The whole point is to get your name out there even if it annoys the viewer.
