I completely agree with Deathbound.
Real world advertising doesn't belong in the Matrix game, unless they are timeless and in line with the Matrix films (though I can't remember seeing one ad in them at the moment).
I don't want to log in and be bombarded with ads about buying Dells, using Google, taking out a Barclaycard or a loan or a mortgage with the Halifax, thanks. I think most players will agree with me that this will completely ruin the atmosphere in the game, if I want ads I'll surf the web.
Next think you know we'll have cool outerwear with great stats and McDonalds stitched on the back of them.
I don't know what's wrong with SOE, instead of advertising other company's crap to us they should be marketing MxO in the real world, that's how to increase the player base and bring in revenue.
