Microsoft set to include Massive ads in their games

Taken from Microsoft's press release: CLICK TO VIEW Not being big fans of in-game advertising here, this looks like a bit of a disappointment. It adds realism of course, but who wants realism when they are playing a videogame? We're struggling to understand the real point of this deal, other than making a bit more money. Hopefully this won't stop Rockstar from using hugely original fake advertising in their GTA series, and any other games that fancy a pop at creating their own in-game advertising which is usually a lot funnier than the real lot out there.

why wouldnt you want to make games more real? Now i dont want to be playing a game and then all of a sudden have to see some add pop up, but haveing to go and blow up a taco bell rather than a no name place would be cool. besides if there is advertisment in the games the games will cost less to make and in turn become better.

3 - FREE XBL

Looking into the near future I can see free XBL Gold. Just agree to have advertising on your dashboard and you will have free XBL? I don't mind advertising ingames It makes it more real but I think free XBL is behind this!!

4 - yep

Need for Speed: Most Wanted had Burger King signs in it. I thought it was cool.
It would be nice if the game developers would lower the price from $60 to $50 with cooperation advertisement. N4S:MW didn't lower the price with the BK advertisement though. I bet they don't lower the price. They will have some other excuse to where the money goes. I don't think XBL gold will ever be free. Maybe only 20% of 360 owners have gold, but a majority of the other 80% who don't might not have the internet. If you don't have XBL gold, get it, its well worth the money.
