Uma ação que vi na última semana, e que pra mim já se tornou forte candidata nessa categoria, é o webgame para promover “Killzone 2″ de Playstation 3. Funciona como trazer uma parte do universo do game para o seu navegador de internet.

Depois de instalar um plugin, o usuário pode ser a qualquer momento atacado pelos terríveis soldados Helghast enquanto estiver navegando. A barra de ferramentas mostra a mensagem “you are under attack”, e você tem 15 segundos para matar os inimigos.
