wish i'd thought of that...

What better way to advertise Killzone, than to just let the target play the game? Awesome. Install the Killzone toolbar for your browser (Firefox v3 recommended or IE6/7) and as you browse your favorite webbasites you’ll get ambushed and thrown right into a battle scene.

Like I said, Awesome.

Tom, your smart, you know about social media, how on earth was this programed and archived... I did not even know something like this was possible.

totally possible. i'd imagine a browser plugin is involved. the beauty is that games these days have their own API's so your web activity and your game activity can be coordinated. its amazing. and im bummed it wasn't my idea. :)
