How come I dont get adverts on the 360 dashboard?

Bengaboy · 2 Dec 2007 at 00:44

Ive had me xbox 360 now for about a year and a half. Went round my mates house and on his dashboard, he had adverts for mass effect and all sorts.

How come I dont get this?

Were both connected to live, and both are gold members.

Thanks lads

P.S not moaning, just wondering

I think it depends what game(s) you have.

We recently got a new game (can't remember which one) which displays adverts in the window that comes up when the middle button is pressed.

There shouldn't be adverts anyway on it seeing as you pay for the service anyway plus they take up way too much room :mad:

People under 18 don't get the adverts.

Amusingly people were complaining to Major Nelson/official forums etc that now they were adults the account didn't become adult which means they can't receive adverts. This has been fixed in the next update but still, complaining because you don't get adverts. Madness.

Complaining that you do, isn't far off the same madness, It hardly hurts, and they are 360 related, better than free pron adverts...Or is it.

to be fair the adverts aren't all that bad, and i quite like seeing what has been released this week.
