Ofcom dont have the same exceptions but they wont care much about gaming claims as has been pointed out, they have taken some slight itnerest in misleading traffic shaping information lately tho but I think its still only slight.

So if you see a VM tv advert going on about how great gaming is on VM or a magazine advert then go ahead I will join in with the complaint. But if the only thing we got is the claim on virginmedia.com the ASA wont care
This was in a gaming mag, so yeah
