not it wasn't like that, that's a cracked xbox with hundreds of games. you have to have an advanced level of technical proficiency to hack a console back then - it make look easy in retrospective but most people didn't give a fuck to know even that much back then.

steam? like the store? like as in a store which is advertising what games to buy off of their front page? a store which is innately the advertising... which has always been an ad catalog of games? that steam?
>>722942284
I always thought of those as newspapers, but yeah those are ads i suppose
What about the xbox 360? >>722942665
You are right! I should stop going grocery shopping because all the ads for food on every aisle!
>>722943265 >false equivalency
Do you need the food to be electric for you to understand this 1 to 1 equivalency? >>722943360
Then why are you on /v/?
There are people advertising videogames here all the time. And most of them do it for free too
>>722943810
Okay retard, you win. show me where you can pay through this page to get food? or a game? where do you insert that coin? where is the price tag? where is the bar code? where is the store front? Advertising WHERE TO BUY, go find the dictionary if you are that braindead of an ESL fucktard, to not comprehend what the word means.

You are an underage poop person. Your skin is poop coloured
If you don't want to see what videogames that are for sale don't go to a videogame store
>>722942284
Oh, you're one of those idiots who don't check the settings before doing anything. I bet you have 150 programs that run when your PC boots into Windows.
>>722944448 >>722944003 >you can turn them off, that means they aren't actually ads
PC gamers are a special kind of retard. Go away, this is an Xbox thread.
>>722944862 >holy jesus christ my child, do you even know what your own argument even is? A store has goods. What does a store do to sell said goods?
> >Comprende?
Said the poop person

Hey guys I need help.
Instead of going home and playing videogames I went to gamestop and there are ads EVERYWHERE!
WTF is this?!?!
Why so many ads in a videogame store?
>>722943785
That's literally a modded dashboard and the 'Xbox Live' option is just the generic name to play online. It's like calling the PS2's system browser an ad
>>722941584
I remember there being advertisements to join the army and shit, and also the time that tsunami hit Japan and kids wound up donating like a gorillion dollars because of that
>>722953536
360 can be softmodded these days with just a USB and can play a lot of OG Xbox games, albeit it's Microsoft's emulator and sometimes it's shit.
>>722941027 (OP) >activate Steam to play my games >ads for a bunch of games while its loading >pop-up ad >automatically opens the store page >"I paid 5 grand for this fake frame generator so I must pretend its okay!"
