Is this the full screen ad that is popping up on Xbox consoles.  If so, I hope someone at MS understand this is not a good ideal.  The last thing I want when I boot up my Xbox is a full screen ad popping up trying to sell me something.  I get enough ads throughout my day to have something like this intruding on me getting to where I want to go on my console. This is the type of stuff that will never go well for MS if they continue to do this.

This is a single popup that goes away with a single click?

I mean come on now, the over-reaction of people over something like that is simply ridiculous. Like you said, people are getting ads EVERYWHERE, ALL DAY. 
There is a BIG first-party game coming out and it is perfectly normal to do that... Esp. when it goes away after one click, they did the same for other AAA games this year and I do not understand why people are offended or making a big deal out of it. 

It needs to stay in the store, or it can be on the ad tile but I do not want any intrusive ad popping up on my console when I did not opt in for it.  You guys maybe are ok with it but I only see it getting worse.  First we have the ad tile within the console, now we have whole sections dedicated to ads in the menu, now we have full screen ads popping up.  Just how much you going to accept because you can be sure, MS will continue to turn your menu into a complete ad if you allow them to.  Its intrusive to the console experience and it will continue to get worse.
