    Play the big dig or gateways, one of them has degree deodorant symbols all over them.

    I dont really care though, dont see what the problem is with it. It gets them more money to spend on more DLC

    Blame Ubisoft.
    At least this is better than always-on DRM.

    Probably helped keep the price down for us, but yeah, I bought some degree on the way to work today.

    I agree with the OP, it is very disappointing to see this kind of advertising in paid content. I counted 20 billboards littering one track. That is way over the top.

    I don't mind advertising in games. I saw some in Splinter Cell (ubisoft) and see it just as a method for developers (or publishers) to get money from product manufacturers.

    There's two ways to look at it, either they are using the funds from advertising to better fund the current game, or they are pocketing the money.

    No matter what:

    We get the game, we play the game.

    That's all there is to it to me.
