As far as I know, the final decision on the ad was made by Jolt.

I remember the good ol' days of R1, when instead of squandering money on adverts they just got PC Gamer (and possibly others, but I only read PC Gamer) to do a review of it.
Why didn't they do that this time? Or have the Creators been sitting around doing nothing so there isn't anything to review apart from the advert?

PA broke a promise, no never!
From offering graphics cards as prizes to asking the community to design an advert, it's this kind of thing which is wrong with the whole management of PA.
Pissup in a brewery springs to mind.

It was held, winner was picked and the design was submitted to Jolt. But apparently they did not like it and came up with another image. I have no idea where from, but it's not particularly appealing in my opinion.
I'll prod Spinner about getting the contest ad designs online so at least they can be viewed for what they're worth.

I did mean to find a copy of PC Gamer and finger through it, but I'm guessing that it'll no longer be the current one. If anyone could scan the ad it'd be much appreciated.
