Status: offline 		wow, i 've just noticed the incline of ads and marketing on the N4G site. it doesn't bother me, it's just something i just realized.
i guess i could be a marketer since i usually recommend N4G to gaming friends that want to read gaming news.

looks like the site is growing if it's of interest to marketers. which is a good thing.

    As mentionned, use firefox FTW, with adblock plus extension, you can block all the ads or just the irrelevant ones that you don't want to see, try it, you won't regret it... it's free......

    edit: personally i find that all ads are annoying except for google text ads, sometimes they lead to somewhere useful...
