What kind of video game players? pc gamers are a different
demographic than console (xbox,ps2,etc.) gamers.

Explain what you mean by branding, what is the end goal? You want
them to frequent your website, subscribe to your services, buy
product, gain name recognition for followup campaigns?

I suppose they are even more ineffective with a technical audience

Test both?
I would guess there are a lot of quality gaming focused sites
(with decent traffic volume) that you might find decent CPM rates.
(maybe community run or by hobbyists). Test them against the
larger sites (www.gamespot.com)

If you're talking about a "branding" campaign then how can you
measure CPA?
