Claim Text:
1. In a system configured to facilitate user interaction with an interactive environment containing one or more advertising targets, a computer-implemented method for increasing a number of advertising impressions, comprising: a) displaying a scene of a portion of a simulated environment from a camera point of view (camera POV) on a video display; b) changing the scene as the camera POV changes in response to movement of the camera POV along a camera path during the user's interaction with the simulated environment; and c) modifying the camera path or a camera field of view, wherein movement added to the camera path or a change the camera field of view places more of an advertising target within the scene displayed on the video display to increase a likelihood of generating an advertising impression as compared to a likelihood of generating an advertising impression had the camera path or camera field of view not been modified.
