I think SoBe machines were better integrated in those landscapes than ne 'n' Tasty's advertisement.
That's your opinion but personally I think the way it was done in NnT was done way better.

I'm not an expert on digital distribution or gigglybytes, but this (rather blunt) solution offered by some of the other forum members seems like it would add quite a bit of weight to the size of the game. Would this impact the cost of uploading it to digital markets to compensate the additional bandwidth? I'd imagine in this area, the idea is to keep the file size as low as possible, so a couple of low-res advertisments seems like, yunno, the better option.
The half an hour of download to get NnT was long enough (and I know that was quite fast compared to some others). I would have hated to wait longer just because OWI/JAW opted to integrate some HD trailers for other games.
