Well it was posted on DN1 that MxO was added to them in april or may (took me ages to find it last night, not looking again :p) but I'm pretty sure someone posted somewhere soon after the transition that SOE would honour SOE game cards for MxO (the search feature on here atm is hopeless so I'm not searching for that either )

SOE recently seems to be very unorganized, a factor of how they run that I've experienced first hand. I'm very upset that they pay little to no attention to prepaid game cards. These would really help those whom don't have access to credit cards, or dont have a credit card account of their own, myself included. It seems no one knows where these game cards have went, and why I can no longer buy them from EBGames. Advertising in the game has never really bothered me, but this does...deeply...
We here at EB Games DO in fact sell cards for the Matrix Online. However, they are not just FOR the Matrix Online. Please go to your local EB Games/GameStop and ask your Game Advisor to give you a SOE Online Entertainment Game Card for either 30 or 90 days. If they can't find it, it's underneath "EverQuest: Planes of Power" in the search function (dunno why, but it is).
SOE Online Entertainment game cards work with all SOE games, including EverQuest I, EverQuest II, Everquest Online Adventures, Star Wars Galaxies, PlanetSide, and The Matrix Online.
And I'm not lying. I do work for EB Games, and I did remember stocking the SOE cards just a week ago. And they did have t3h Morpheus on the front.

Past that, I think the advertisements look good in the game, as long as they are kept to Matrix standards. Things such as use of bland colors and an overuse of the colors green and red, for example. I think that makes more effective advertising in the Matrix because people are more apt to study things that blend in. Me for example, I've trained myself to pretty much ignore bright colors in the Matrix because I know it's a silly advertisement. So.. perhaps making it look like a part of the game might make more players study it.

I want any adverts. Even if they a bright yellow buy banana's adverts.
Well maybe not, but white ad space for rent signs aren't very nice everywhere.
