The Man Responsible For Xbox Dashboard Ads Says He's Sorry

[the-pi-guy]

"Nowadays the Xbox One UI is nearly all 'ads', i.e., links promoting content and apps in the Xbox ecosystem," he said. "So it's nice to see that the idea caught on and if you hate the Mt. Dew ads, I am truly sorry."

Ads like that are messed up.

The ads on vita are about the max I can deal with for a paid system.

I don't have an Xbox or a Vita, so I don't know what that's like.

Vita ads

If you go to the view of all open apps, it displays three ads on the bottom.

Then some apps have their own ads. PS Store and Video player are the obvious ones since they're stores. Game apps have ads for DLC and other games by the same devs, so they aren't really ads.

Three ads on the right. This is the home screen that you see every single time you do anything.

Then to the right is a full page of ads, but that is more or less the store.

PS4 have ads on the Store too... I don't like but if they show only on Store I will accept that
