I'm kind of tired of seeing Valkyrie Profile II and Infinite Undiscovery advertised in Play Online Viewer.

Is it possible to add some titles we can relate too more?
How about Final Fantasy XIV, and FFXIII, maybe some SE DS titles or FFIV PSP or Dissidia?

I mean why even have the advertisements there at this point if they aren't going to be updated with the three hottest SE flavors?

Edit:
With some possible discounts for buying through play online - a possible reward for being a FFXI subscriber? Like purchase FFXIV through the Play Online link and get a 10% discount or free shipping?

Really I forgot all about them since most people spam past that page as soon as it comes up.

Because SE is bad at advertising. See: Every game they make.

SE has a firm belief that fans visit their (main) site often. On the front page, there is a little flash wheel with all the upcoming projects and releases. Well, there was a few months back, haven't been lately. That alone counts as "advertising" from what I've seen. Now, that being said, they make a mini-site for every game that contains a nice amount of information. They also rely quite heavily on game previews and reviews in magazines and on external websites.

The advertising banner on PoL seems to vary with installation disc, as the one I had on XBox at first was different after I lost it all and had to reinstall with a newer disc. I distinctly remember the same 3 ads on my bro's PS2 (before he sold) being the same for 4 years. If anyone can verify with the most recent expansion disc (via a BRAND NEW install, not updating), then that would be the easiest way for you to update your ads. Just a thought, unless I'm wrong.
