Line 316:
* ''[[SimCity]]'' buildings fall under this. There's the Kong Tower, Quigley Insurance, Byall Means Travel Agency, Wright and Daughter, Dragon Dr., Justin Brown Plaza, Bob's Grease Pit, Curtin Fabrics, and Pump & Scoot Gas just to name a few.
** And let's not forget the dreaded Wren Insurance building!
* ''[[The Sims]]'', by proxy, is also full of this by way of the brand names of all buyable items. This actually gets averted down the line, thanks to a tie-in deal with [https://web.archive.org/web/20120531134611/http://thesims2.ea.com/about/sp8_index.php IKEA].
*** As an added note, using the random Sim generater in the Sims 2 Debug mode will cough up Sims with ramdomly-generated names that include some Brand X ''last'' names, like Curtin, Byall, Wren etc.
* ''[[Silent Hill 1]]'' has Vestal Gigastore, a riff on Virgin Megastore. And if you know what a Vestal Virgin is, and you've played to the end of the game, you know what a [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]] that is.
