Real brand ads are going to be a thing in any racing game that has a real world license. Or even without a license, since Pole Position had Marlboro and Pepsi billboards in 1982.

One of the Need For Speed games definitely had serious product placement for the Sidekick (which was not a Nokia phone btw).
