Politics on XBox

Please do not turn this thread into a political debate EMW80. People are very sensitives about their politics and it can easily derail threads such as this.

Everyone has their point of view, and everyone is entitled to it. However these are the xbox forums and this was a post about the Xbox. Iets leave political debates for a political forum

THEOWENKILLER: I'm sorry, apparently I didn't make myself clear on the original post.

My problem is not with advertising, my problem is that they are POLITICAL ads, from ONE party and ONE candidate.

If you'd like to take a moment to go back and re-read what I posted originally, I'll be happy to wait...

Do you think those politicians get those adverts for free?

They probably paid a fortune to get a prime spot on the xbox dashboard and i`m sure microsoft would gladly take their money.

Yes i get that,what i am saying is that ONE politician paid for his advert to promote himself,if his opposition wants to pay i am sure he can get his advert on there to.

This is not microsoft taking sides,its a business selling advertisement space to whoever wants it.

Yeah... let's all be glad this hasn't happened yet. That, or Master Chief's power armor looking like a Nascar jumpsuit, covered in corporate logos. *ponders that for a moment* On second though, I would love to watch Master Chief doing TV ad spots for mundane
products.
