Activision and Xbox have teamed up to release full screen ads for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on the console's homepage, which players have since heavily criticised.
It then suggests you perhaps buy the game ahead of its full release later this month . Your three options are simply"Buy Now","Get the Vault Edition Upgrade" and, mercifully, the option to"Exit" away from this ad and get on with what you actually booted up your Xbox for.Needless to say, many aren't especially delighted with this decision by the Call of Duty and Microsoft teams .
As a general point, Microsoft deployed similar pop-up ad tactics for both Starfield and Forza Motorsport earlier this year, so perhaps full-screen marketing like this is going to be the norm going forward.
