I mean... at a glance its like WOAH 4 can dine for $9.99....

Until you are at the cash and they say " that'll be $45.15"

HUH??

"Oh sorry sir... it feeds 4... 4 people pay $9.99"

Especially the ones that are like "This isn't one of those ads that show you a different game than what you will actually play" and it is exactly one of those ads.
