have FTC require game commercials to have a disclaimer if footage on screen does not reflect gameplay graphics quality.

Created by J.C. on October 28, 2013

We are requesting the FTC to require companies that show tv commercials for console-only games that showcase high quality graphics to have a disclaimer saying "Not actual gameplay" during rendered scenes and "Gameplay recorded on a PC with high quality graphics" during gameplay footage on screen. Console gamers deserve to know that they have been cheated and that their consoles can't perform with the same quality shown on screen.

This happens with almost every single game commercial shown.
