Not.
I don't touch much with ads so I avoid most of their campaign of horseshit, but the current CoD definitely had a double xp cross promotion with Little Ceasars pizza, and they've done Mountain Dew in the past. So you get punished with half progression if you don't constantly throw money at it already.
Wasn't it Mt. Dew and Doritos, or has it mainly been Halo hitting the double dip on that?
They've been doing it for so long now, I've forgotten. I think the earliest I remember was those WoW-based sodas that had a pet tied to which flavor you got.
Then came the wall of Master Chief watching you walk down the aisle trying to do your shopping.
The Little Caesars One is still going on. I saw an ad for it last night.
[Very joke] Wait... if I buy the latest fishgame I can get double XP at Little Caesars?! If only I even knew where to buy those things!
