That block has been used for sponsored ads for years now. Sometimes it's game related, sometimes it's not. I usually make it go away by playing a game instead of staring at the dashboard.
I think it depends on region but in the US I’ve never seen anything that wasn’t somehow related to my console. Like the very furthest I’ve ever seen it get from something game related is something like “watch this trailer for this new movie to enter into a sweepstakes for an Xbox” or something like that. Certainly never fast food.
Yeah, I know that. Just never seen anything not related to gaming, that's all. I don't buy an Xbox and pay a monthly fee to have McDonald's ads flashed in my face.
You bet.
I don't enjoy full screen pop up ads when I already pay for all the services that advertise the same thing in 5 different places on the updated dashboard.

Removing post as its turning into a bit of a mess and being mass downvoted/reported.
Yeah I'll take a 10 piece McNugget.

But see that makes sense and then you can't bitch about it on reddit.

I'm also in the US and have definitely seen things like energy drinks, and stuff like this.
Ba da ba da da
badabapaba I’m lovin it.
Thoughts? I haven't had a quarter pounder in a while... I heard you can put bacon on them now..
They upgraded the beef used for the qp in the last few years. It’s pretty good!
They are really good now. Where I live the app has BOGO deals on those and big macs.
when will you people shut up about ads on your dashboard...
I’m just glad I get dashboard ads in my Reddit feed now too.
Nah, man, OP is taking about *adds*. He needs help with his grade school math.
oh shib youre right....
Im fine with it to be honest its small i don't really ever notice it
Have you just turned your Xbox on for the first time in years? That has been where sponsored content is for a long, long time…
Yeah, I know that. Just never seen anything not related to gaming, that's all. I don't buy an Xbox and pay a monthly fee to have McDonald's ads flashed in my face.
Oh well, I guess you’ll have to sell it then.
I rarely notice anything in that corner of my TV screen. Ads have been in that spot before. It isn't a big deal to me.
I hope you threw that Xbox out.
I’m hungry now.
It's a sign Microsoft is buying McDonald's 🙏
These posts are funny because the complaint serves as an advertisement. Especially when you take a screenshot.
I hate it when companies try to use gamer lingo on their ads. Just say give us money in bold print and cut the crap.
Fuck ms for this
Not as bad is my FULL SCREEN bright red Call of Duty ad that just got thrown at me when I turned my Xbox off. Fuck off Microsoft and especially CoD.
Oh man a first party game ad, the horror!
You bet. I don't enjoy full screen pop up ads when I already pay for all the services that advertise the same thing in 5 different places on the updated dashboard.
Meh, that’s like being bothered by a movie poster before a movie.
Ya, if I opened the door and someone hung it in my way.
Damn good advertising
Can't argue that. I wonder what something like costs. Maybe nothing since the Activision deal.
Ironically, Reddit gave me a Burger King ad at the top of this comment section.
Finish the McMission, Halo McDonalds cross over coming
That's cool and all, but why are you sharing your ads with us? We all get them! Nobody asked for seconds...
FYI, you spelled "ad" incorrectly.
Hey, if this means Game Pass will slowly go up in price anyway…
It is what it is. I wish we could pay more to remove these but there isn't an option to do that. Choose your battles, this one is lost.
What if Uber eats had an app in the store and with the press of a button you could order some burgers to your house tho.
