Fighting Game Has Unique eBay Promotion

Posted on August 16, 2006

A new fighting style console game called Battle of the Gods is currently running an unusual eBay promotion. The game developer, Classified Productions, is running an unusual online auction to sell a spot as a background character in the game. In other words, if you win the auction you get to place your own likeness inside the video game itself.

In the game you can play as different gods and goddesses from different religions and engage in battles. The game will be available first for the Xbox 360 and the PS3. No date has yet been set for its release.

The promotion is sort of similar to the when authors let you become a character in their novel.
