An add for DigiMask... Those people who were going to allow you to stick your a copy of your face, and the face of any one else you knew into a computer game, before allowing you to damage them in ways usually restricted to the spanish inquisition...
You know, good, clean, family fun... at least until Nintendo and the American media decided that it wasnt going to allow the American public to use it...
Which it seems ment that noone else in the world was going to get to have a go either? ... Until...

A way of sending your mate e-cards with animations of yourself acting very much like a sims character...
