You must be suffering from a traumatising issue that burned advertisements in your retina. I can't think of any other reason you would see ads in the videos of the Xbox One UI, because there weren't any.
Lol watch it again. There are plenty of ads.

Sony hasn't had confusing PR which would need clarification.
Sony said it's a debug unit and not final.
Devkits and debug kits don't typically get all the bells and whistles nor do they get upgraded on the same schedule and path as the consumer devices. We have no idea when the last time that kit right there was updated, so for all we know we're critiquing a months old build.
Yes, it IS, too early to shit on it. Wait for official videos and hands on of a CONSUMER PS4.

Edit: Don't mean to insult you with that first sentence, just trying to be funny here
Is that so?
I see 8 of the 15 tiles (in the "my pins" section no less) taken up with ads. But they you're right, no ads. And people think this shit looks better then the PS4 UI, LOL.

What's that on the left? Ads for Homeland, Game of Thrones and something in the middle I don't recognize.
Do those things have to go hand in hand though? Why do we have to settle when there's really no reason we can't have a great looking, yet functional, UI without ads.
That video is fake.
And that would be on the right, not left.
Ads for movies, TV shows are the ads you despise so much? I don't mind those at all; ones for buying McDonalds or some shit are annoying.

I don't see the difference. As a gamer, the only thing I'd want to see ads for would be discounts on games in the online store.
Good points.
I'd still prefer the better UI though. If it means overlooking ads then so be it. I can still boot a game instantly on 360 even with it's more elaborate UI. Give me the better brand integration and cool transitions. Shouldn't they be pimping stuff on PS+? Hit me with ads for games and other things to spend my money on but do it in a way that'll entice me to do it.
I just wish Sony would've done something with it instead of the static blue background. Give us some cool transitions utilizing the shapes pattern and ribbon. I want to see the graphics on the console packaging in motion. It doesn't have to be some crazy 3 second long animation, just something subtle and sleek that gives me the impression that they wanted to make the entire experience enjoyable as soon as I turn on the system.
It just sucks seeing the potential go to waste.

There is a clear difference to me. I am sure we all want to live in a society that gives us free games, discounts for nothing.
A lot of people just come in here to try and pimp the Xbone like it's not heading out of the gate as the red headed stepchild of next gen.
Krakn3Dfx said:The same happens on both sides, but the "oh man that UI is so ugly, Microsoft UI is so much better to me and that's super important" spin is pretty hilarious.
I'm not talking about free games, I'm just talking about showing what's available in the Store. A lot of times I don't go into the online store, but if there was a small ad space that showed you what happened to be on sale that day, which I might not otherwise know about unless I actively browse the store, I think that's a win-win.
What I don't want are ads for Under The Dome and Burger King shitting up my home screen.

Mute the video before you watch it.
You can thank me later.
May just be the gif. But the animation feels like it is way to long. Same problem I have with iOS 7.

It's not that, it's all the shit that isn't game related. Same problem I have with the 360.
If I go into the XBL marketplace and see ads for popular or upcoming games- that's fine.
If I go into the movie marketplace and see ads for promotions newly released shows- that's fine.
What I don't like is when my home page or pages which should only contain stuff I want on it have ads, and not only that but sometimes have more ads then actual content. Imagine if your phone's screen was taken up by 50% ads, and it took you twice as long to find something because of that.

It's the Balmer Dr. Evil laugh gif, he's using a banned site.
Thanksit looks like they took down the original video. I found a shorter version if anyone's interested. Just be sure to mute because some idiot voiced over the audio with moronic comments.

Ads?
I thought they said your 'Pin' section shows pinned programs/apps as well as the most recent shows/music you accessed on said apps.
Meaning that "Mindy Project", "This is 40", and "Rianna" are just the last things watched/listened to......
Pessimism is strong in this one....

I know you think you are being clever, but those "ads" are shortcuts to the content that has been put there by the user.
If you want to believe those aren't ads and somebody pinned "Rihanna" and "The Mindy Show" then thats on you, I'm not that delusional.

I must have imagined this then.
I guess that is normal for someone delusional
What happened?
I don't see why he was banned honestly. He had valid points and opinions.What happened?

Ok, whatever, I'm not going to bother trying to convince someone that doesn't want to be convinced. In your eyes the XBO UI has no ads.
So there are no ads on the bone? Thats good news if true..
