Zeddas: Servant of Sheol on PC - Advertisement Review

The great thing about video games is that they can be about anything. You aren't limited by what an actor looks like or where you're located, you can create a game about any world, any person or thing and about any story. And that's not all, when you've created your masterpiece, you can call it whatever you want. Knowing that, it sort of makes you wonder why somebody would name a game Zeddas: Servant of Sheol. I can sort of understand the Servant of Sheol part, but Zeddas? Is that supposed to be a place? You can name your game anything, from Happy DVD Snapper to Kill Em All 3, and yet you come up with Zeddas? I guess I should just be happy you didn't go for the palindrome and call it Zaddaz.

Here's what I have figured out from staring at this terrible advertisement: Zeddas is a brothel that caters to some very specific clientele. Or maybe this is actually something a lot more wholesome, like Zeddas Day Care Center. It's hard to tell when the lights are so low. Can somebody turn on the lights? Anyway, all I can tell is that Zeddas appears to be run by a bunch of weirdly proportioned women in various stages of undress.

Unfortunately it's impossible to look at this advertisement and not immediately notice the morbidly obese woman in the middle of the group. It's not just the fact that she's the size of a house that made us notice her first; it was the fact that she's wearing a red dress and one of her breasts is the same size as the other four girls combined. When you think about advertising the common logic is that you get the thin and sexy woman to sell your product, because a pretty girl is hard to resist. Apparently nobody told that to Synergy Interactive, because no matter how hot the other girls are, the only thing I can see is that 500 pound woman in the red dress. If this is what I can expect from Zeddas, then you can count me out as one of the servants of Sheol.
