Seen@Gamescom: The Battlefield 3 MiG-21

[jkipp82]

Even though we'd been warned that a Battlefield 3 branded MiG-21 jet would be advertising this October's shooter, the sight of a massive jet sitting amongst thousands of Gamescom attendees was jarring.

Maybe even more jarring was the awkward dummy sitting in the MiG's cockpit, dead eyes staring into the Koln Messe's depths. Actually, the tens of thousands of dollars it cost to brand and ship the jet from Berlin to Cologne is most jarring of all. But hey, we totally got our picture taken in front of a jet! Wooo!

I have to say that is pretty cool marketing, having a branded jet its close to every kids fantasy of owning one:)
