The new secretness: PopCap's latest Evony vs. Zombies ads

I guess the lesson here is create a banner campaign so artfully played that people will run it for free: PopCap sends over another selection of its Evony parodying ads, the one above so perfectly pitched at the most egregious of the originals, and the game itself already so firmly cemented in Offworld's collective mind that I'm tempted to say they truly transcend their purpose. Below: another pair. Of ads.

The ads at their original resolution, as requested, are below the fold.

I want to see Plants vs. Zombies vs. How To Get Whiter teeth next, Popcap! Make it happen!

There is an evony ad right below the "Don't Miss" collection of links. I just find that kind of funny.

Where exactly are these images coming from? The ones posted have always been stretched and filled with artifacts. I'd love to see clean versions of the ads.

They're coming straight from PopCap themselves, and are sent in, you know, banner ad size and therefore don't quite fit as cleanly into a post as I'd like (see: that first post with the initial skyscraper). I'll embed them at actual size below the fold, if it'd help.

That would be beyond awesome. :-)

I'm tempted to buy the game again just out of my love for this campaign. :-)
