a lot of people were up in arms when this was starting to be dicussed, but i dont mind the ads in game. if anyone noticed, there are internet generated ads in the 360 version of splinter cell:da in multiplayer maps. theyre placed logically on billboards and in little subliminal places like posters inside rooms and such. i didnt realize until i saw an intel core 2 duo ad one time in the map and the other it was replaced by something else. cool stuff as long as theyre giving back to the gamers by either A) lowering retail prices, or B) having servers for matchmaking or dedicated hosted games.
