@Stinkleroy : I was just answering PjotrStroganov's post on the possiblity of the advertising revenue funding free DLC. I am well aware of the current financial meltdown

I see the Red bull advertising in 2097 to be very different from downloadable ads that are going to pop up each time a track loads up. The last thing I want to see is different adverts for crap I dont want/need every time I want to play my favourite game. TV is bad enough, without it spilling onto video games.

I think these kind of adverts shatter the illusion of the futuristic world that Wipeout delivers so well. The 2097 Red bull adverts at the time didnt really affect the game, or the futuristic feeling that much. If we get bombarded with different adverts for Swinton Insurance for example, it will just kill the game for me, and im sure a lot of other people.

Its a shame really
