Writes tipster Matthew:

The attached pictures are from the Metro newspaper they give away on the underground in London, and as you can see there is literally a 360 advert on every page. I love 360, but at that time in the morning it was a little bit too much Xbox for my liking.
Not just yours, Matthew, but mankind's. Hey Microsoft, ease up. Europe is a cash cow this Christmas.

I just flicked through the Metro when my dad bought it home, i counted 40 odd ads. Really, its a bit OTT, eh?

Does seem a bit much but I suppose they aren't taking Nintendo and the Wii lightly despite what they say in public ("we don't care" etc).
That and they know that Sony are-a-comin'.

How could a magazine need anymore than a 2-page spread (at least)? This isn't OTT, it's just extremely ridiculous.
