I think that made my day
It does, just not completely. *smug*


I like Sony adverts, at least they're trying something 'out there'. I love the Ratchet and Clank adverts where they try out the weapons and gadgets in real life.

Does it do backwards compatibility? Allow you to change operating systems? Make French fries? I don't think so. As much as I give Sony credit for coming up with an actual marketing campaign for once, it doesn't do everything, but then again, no one wants backwards compatibility, or a dual shock for that matter...

Sony have always had amazing TV ads, e.g. this one from Chris Cunningham:
Did they make that ad so freaking unsettling on purpose? I guess it worked since I won't be able to get it out of my head anytime soon...

I don't know if I'd always say "amazing [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/94287-A-Look-Back-at-Sonys-Bizarre-PS3-Advertising]"...

UUUUUUHHHHHHmmmm... First off, Fanboy.. second, I didn't buy the PS3 because it sucks; no good games, and I already have a blu-ray player. Third, the comment made us smile, nothing more, it was an accurate observation that the commercial was wrong about it doing everything. Fourth, my computer is way better. Finally, you need to relax about your system that you spent WAY too much money on. Even at 300$ I would not buy one of these piles of black garbage, not including the 65$ for the crappy games. Take it down to $200 and I would consider buying it. It is still too expensive for not much fun; 1 truly original title, Little Big Planet, that's it...

Edit: Also, I am not cheap and I have kids. I own and build computers because they are worth my money... Consoles are all cheap imitations of computers that irk me by taking away developers that could be coming up with new and innovative games on a real platform!

Sony have always had cool, ground-breaking ads imo. They've always emphasised design & image over straightforward factual information (an especially brave move in the 90s when games consoles were still considered toys). This new ad is quite funny, and it'll probably generate a few extra sales, but it's nothing compared to the likes of Mental Wealth, Double Life or the exploding Rubik's cube. They might seem pretentious or ridiculous to some people but I think they're appreciated by the majority of potential consumers, even if only on a subconscious level. In your article you say "Sony's recent PS3 commercials are straightforward, clever, and actually sell you the product", but I think great adverts do much more than that.
I don't find any of those cool, ground-breaking, or particularly great. They're just strange and vaguely uncomfortable.

Funny stuff right there. Hopefully, the PS3 slim will be much more successful on release than the PS3 was.
