Some of you are missing the point. It's not about how big the ad is, or even what the ad is about, it's the fact that the put an ad IN the game. I don't care if it's an ad for greenpeace, it doesn't belong in the gameworld. Even if you like what they are advertising, it still destroys your immersion in Oddworld.
Given the choice, I'm sure all of us on this board would rather have the game without the SoBe ad in it. So why are we disagreeing? Tell Oddworld that you don't want it! Email them, tell them you'd rather they take the ad out!
You don't have to go along with it just because you like Oddworld. They aren't Gods, they make mistakes. This is one of them. Don't let your admiration of Oddworld make you complacent. Just email them and ask them to remove the ad! Simple.
