Coca-Cola is a consumable healing item in Ragnarok Online, an MMORPG.

Games like Tony Hawk pro skater show off a countless number of skater brands making that really smart in game advertising.

In SSX3, 7-up and the Honda Element were advertised extensively. You could get boards with decals of either two things. And in one of the levels you can grind on a pole though the spacious side doors of a Honda Element.

Oh, and for some reason I remember the Sims having a marketing deal with in-game McDonald's products. You should look into that.

OH! And in the Sims 2 you can guy an expansion pack that is entirely clothes from the clothing retailer H&M.
