Description
Anyone remember those creepy commercials?If some freaky stranger appeard in your house with a big plasitc mask and a cape holding out some burger would you:
a) Scream out of fear like a normal person
b) take the food even though you dont know where it came from
c) wonder what made Burger King go this far.
If this is burger kings idea of "Have it your way" who the hell were they listening to?
Their ones now are even weirder. I can honestly say I have never eaten a Big Mac or a Whopper and I could care less. (I'll keep my healthy heart with low cholestoral and clean arteries thank you very much.)

Yep. I got a copy. It was the oddest promotion for anything ever. If you're curious you might find a copy real cheap at your local game store.

It's an interesting concept, including company mascots into other media forms such as videogames, but it was handled rather ham-fistedly. The fact that he was creepier than all hell didn't help either.
Thinking back, I think McDonald's was the first to feature their own likeness or Ronald McDonald in a videogame. I think it was Disney Skate? You could do a mission for a McDonalds that involved delivering Big Macs around town, and you'd get a pair of Ronald McDonald's boots. I don't remember, though, if Ronald McDonald was a playable character.

The ham-fistedness (Is that the right word?) actually just makes things better in a "so bad it's good" kinda way. The fact that he was undeniably creepy is part of the fun. And, no joke, he could jump at the characters out of trash cans (among other things,) to offer them food! Somebody didn't think that game through fully.
Thanks for mentioning the Disney Skate game. Now I have to go wiki walk and see if I can find it. Another few hours of my life I'll never get back...

Two facts worth pointing out:
A. Burger King stopped using this guy two years ago and hasn't come up with anything good since.
B. Wendy's (6,000+ locations) surpassed Burger King (22,000+ locations) in sales two years ago. More sales in fewer locations means Wendy's must be doing SOMETHING right...
IMHO, Burger King has slipped to #3 in the big chains, with Wendy's now being the main rival to McDonald's dominance.

Sheesh, whoever thought "The King" was a GOOD idea anyways? Even if you don't like clowns, Ronald McDonald was never as creepy as this guy. It's no wonder Wendy's has taken their #2 spot behind McDonald's...

My friend Hanna poked me in the shoulder when I was at her house. I turned to see her sitting there, eyes like saucer plates, holding a White Castle burger near her mouth. She sniffed it, then said, "Wake up with the King, bitch."
I've never been the same since.
