On February 1, 2007, Microsoft announced on their Gamerscore Blog some new policies that developers must follow related to Gamerscore and Achievements in future releases. [67] All regular disc-based games must have 1,000 Gamerscore points in the base game; the title can ship with fewer than 1,000 points, but anything added later must be free.
The Gamerscore (G) is an achievements system that measures the number of achievement points accumulated by a user with a Live profile. These Achievement points are awarded for the completion of game-specific challenges, such as beating a level or amassing a specified number of wins against other players in online matches.
TrueAchievements was designed and programmed by Richard Stone, and launched in March 2008. It was conceptualized when Richard Stone determined that the current GamerScore system devised by Microsoft was inherently unbalanced; it would sometimes appear to offer only a few points for difficult tasks in-game, and many points for somewhat trivial tasks in-game.
YouTube discussed its pause ads last year, when it said it would bring them to connected TVs. When a video is paused on a smart television, the video shrinks and an ad shows next to it.
When you visit AOL.com, you’ve probably noticed banner ads mixed in with the news stories and other content. These advertisements typically appear at the top or right side of the page, sometimes even expanding over your screen. With Ad-Free AOL.com, you’ll no longer see these ads.
Linear video ads — the ads are presented before, in the middle of, or after the video content is consumed by the user, in very much the same way a TV commercial can play before, during or after the chosen program. Non-linear video ads — the ads run concurrently with the video content, so the users see the ad while viewing the content.
These ads do not require players to have access to an Internet connection in order to display the campaigns. [9] Limitations include ads becoming outdated or irrelevant as consumer habits change. [9] Because these ads cannot change once released to the public, they also lack the ability to be customized based on player demographics. [9]
