Massive Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Microsoft, has signed multi-year deals with both sides of Activision/Blizzard. Massive Inc. is in the business of advertising, and they've agreed to support up to 18 Xbox360 and PC games with in-game advertising. Please note that the in-game advertising does NOT extend to the Blizzard side of the deal.

Massive Inc. will be the exclusive advertiser found on Blizzard's websites, and it's Battle.net service. Blizzard, however, is against in-game ads, so on the websites are the only place you'll find them.
