This is not ok.
I log on after a long day.
I'm greeted to this shit for CODMW4.
Fuck off.
I don't pay for an xbox console & online subscription to have this dogshit forced onto my dash when I login.
To fix, go to settings, background, disable event themed backgrounds.
This shit is not on.
Fuck you Activision.

Bet you feel real cute putting those three wise monkey skeletons in front of your TV to just marginally block the view but guess what, i have high functioning autism and if you tried to pull that kind of shit with me in real life? Why I'd knock your block off.

I heard tell of a man who lost him's life jumping off of an original Xbox console, famed as it was for its tremendous size.

By the subtle context clues i think they want you to buy CoD.
I did get a fullscreen ad on boot days ago, fuck that

you do actually. you saw the 2013 xbone reveal and then kept buying xbox. this is what you asked for.

But anon, that's exactly what you paid for, you fucking retarded console peasant.

Sony has to do the same thing to get a bigger reaction out of /v/

>>750198396
Adverts in general are getting really out of hand. It started to hit home when my Roku Deluxe ($150 at the time) put 3 ads on the home screen. Used to have none. I paid $150 for that shit. That's a lot of fucking money for a little box that just runs TV apps. And at the time there were no adverts on it. Then after a few years, they completely changed it.

That should legally open the option to a full refund. When they change the function of a device to such an extreme, it is no longer the same product. It's like changing your car from a Ferrari to a Ford. I'm still pissed off about that.

there was a startup full screen animated ad for GTA6 when pre-orders opened. there'll probably be more closer to release.

everything with a screen will at some point be used to cunt you with advertising.
Literally every device you own with a screen is going to cunt and fist you with ads.
I love the future!!!!

Nice try, corpo dick heads. The only way you'll get me to view ads is if you conscript me into a military conflict in which I die and am reincarnated as a complete fuck wit.
>>
>>750205543
Okay you got me, those are about the only two examples I can think of. Weird how maintaining actual ownership of your device protects you from being cunted and annoyed with advertisements.
Fair point anon.

>>750198396
i didnt even have 'special event' backgrounds on but the jeet auto-enabled this shit on all my accounts forcing me to go thru the settings to turn this shit off. im not playing your anti-american slop Habib fuck off
>>
>>750198396
You're right, and I hate how minor this has become in the grand scheme of things. Like people would scoff at you because it's "literally nothing bro" when there are things out there that are many times worse than this.

I was watching youtube yesterday. I paused to read something, and an ad slid in from the right side of the screen and windowed the video (like the comments section). I was annoyed by it trying to grab my attention for PRODUCT when I was trying to focus on something else, and quickly dismissed it. Then I thought to myself "huh, wonder how long it'll be before that dismiss button disappears". Ugh.

>Remember how controversial horse armour was
They're literally using a "boil the frog" strategy to slowly roll out enshitification and it's fucking working.
>>
>>750206030
it's a progressive thing anon. They lack the ability to see 'the next step', and will loudly and proudly declare that something isn't a big deal, while being completely unable to see that the next iteration of it will be a big fucking deal.

it's like with immigration
hart-celler in1965 was justified in that was just a few hispanics, it's not enough to change demographics (in texas of all places), and don't be racist.
2026: It's not your country any more white boy.

>>750206202
it's far easier to block the adjew on a device you actually own though. try updating your hosts file on an iphone for example.
>>
>>750198837
Yeah he copied the post word for word. I'm all for writing fake stories here or making elaborate shitposts, but what's the fun in just copy pasting some other bullshit from reddit?

thats it I've had enough

That sucks. I haven't turned my Xbox on in a couple days but I love my psychedelic reggae background I have for it. I would be pissed if they replaced it with cod stuff too.

that's the homepage of a store app. what do you expect to find on a store page? a blank screen? the equivalent would be to change the windows wallpaper to an ad.

95% of /v/'s population is social media browsing retards who just repost screencaps of what they saw on here.
