  7. [R7] Extreme Car Driving Simulator 1/5 · US You’d think it was a game for displaying pop-up ads: Used to play this all the time when I was a kid (~10+ yrs ago) and I remember having gotten ads at the time; this, however, is ridiculous. You can’t play for five minutes without getting an ad, and even when you’re not getting an ad that bars you from playing, 20% of the screen is ads that are just waiting for you to misclick. Add to that the fa
