“The ad has been removed from WipEout HD”, a Sony rep told Eurogamer, “and we are investigating the situation to ensure that any in-game advertising does not affect gameplay”.
Note this doesn’t mean all advertising in the game has been removed; only the ad that was causing the annoying, increased load times.
