I've always had issues with MS's Xbox advertising. They don't seem to advertise that often anymore since the beginning when they had that great voiceover actor (who was also in They Live and played the father in Something About Mary).

Now they are launching a new system... and where the Hell are the ads? I know that they are sold out for launch, but still, they need to push hard now that they have a lead on the next generation consoles. I just don't understand their strategy.
