There's a saying that goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words." If this adage is true then the campaign for Grand Theft Auto IV is reaching mammoth proportions as far as the size of ads are concerned.
In downtown Los Angeles, the Hotel Figueroa sports three gigantic murals on the sides of its buildings proclaiming the word that Grand Theft Auto IV is truly coming. The scope of the murals is truly amazing--the artwork spans at least 12 stories high.
Thousands of commuters pass these murals daily and no doubt, there will be at least a few gamers driving by that will pick up the game because of the ads. For a peek at what they look like, look below.

I'd like to see what Fox has to say about this...
Awesome, I've been to that hotel!
Also, take that Chicago officials! Saying advertisements of criminals will convince people violence is ok.
It looks like the governator is a ok with the ads. It would be so hippacritical of him, with his hyper violent action movies, not to be.
"Get to the chopper!"
I believe it's "Get to da choppa!"
You're both wrong, it's "Gettahdachahpa!"
I'm buying this game just for the girl eating a lollipop
Take that Jack Thompson!
