ET writes: "You probably know Game of War: Fire Age from its omnipresent ads starring Kate Upton as some sort of sexy Braveheart. It makes sense: Teenage boys play video games and teenage boys love Kate Upton.
Now, the Elusive Chanteuse has taken over the mantle and TMZ debuted her commercial, which has Mariah fighting dragons while her 1993 ballad “Hero” plays in the background.
It’s exactly as insane as it sounds. And we have some questions."

MMOsite: "Arguably, Game of War is one of the largest mobile MMO games. This is in thanks to its rather popular Kate Upton advertising campaign, as well as its other…interesting use of sexually themed ads to drive traffic to the title. The popular title generates over one-million dollars a day in revenue – with paying players spending an average of $550 on the game in 2015.
However, one player went above and beyond that $550 statistic. Kevin Lee Co, a 45-year old man from California, United States pleaded guilty in federal court to embezzling 4.8 million dollars from his employer over a period of seven years. "
That is a crazy amount to spend on a mobile game. But I hope he got his fill as I doubt that he'll get to play it much in prison.
So true... Lots of questionable actions with the stolen money... Season tickets to the San Francisco 49ers and the Sacramento Kings might be a bigger waste than his Game of War purchases. lol
Lol! Reminds me of a woman who did the same thing and spent the majority of it on scratch offs. Authorities were alerted to her odd spending habits.
"players spending an average of $550 on the game in 2015."
What blows my mind is that that is the AVERAGE. Ffs no game is worth that much money.
Man this is a sickness.... Wtf
One million a day ... That's some serious cash for any game
WTF!?
It should not even be physically possible to spend a million bucks on a game...
If he absolutely had to spend it on a game he should have spent it on a promising game on kickstarter or something.
Lee from Bit Cultures discusses his brief, nostalgia-laced obsession with the app Game of War, and how fun shouldn’t come with maintenance fees.
Got to love green screens.
The other day when I seen it on t.v., I couldn't do anything but laugh at the poor attempt.
Is it wrong to find her still hot?
That Christmas music video of her back in the early 90s was when she was nicccce
She still looks good.
Man what a downgrade from Kate upton
