Kevin Butler Proves the Power of the Mustache

What's Kevin Butler advertising this time around? ModNation Racers, but who cares! He has a mustache!


I have made more than clear [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/98986-Sony-Advertising-Brings-Kevin-Butler-of-War-III] at this point, so I see no real reason to reiterate all of it: Simply put, he's the best thing to happen to Sony since Final Fantasy VII. Yes, I'm fully aware that they're just commercials, but they're just so damn funny and well-made that it really doesn't matter to me!

This time around, he's reassuring and encouraging some poor gamer worried that the mighty Steve will be able to defeat him on his very own ModNation Racers track. What follows may be the greatest 80s sports inspirational speech seen since 1989.

Well, it may be. It might not be, too. But there's something about that mustache that's just... hypnotizing. It's like an aura of command.

Oh, and I guess ModNation Racers looks pretty cool too, or something.

Like I said, when I get a job, I'm sold on the PS3.

This guy is good.

Its equally amazing that those were all created with only 1-5 items that were in the beta.

Also Funk...

I never get tired of these commercials - I'm amazed how consistently good they all are. Really top notch advertising.

 

[RanD00M]

Ahh KB.This one of the reasons why all other TV ads suck.Because they don't have KB in them.

 

[MR T3D]

Oh...Oh God... Kevin Butler can spontaneously grow a mustache?! He is going to rule the world with that power one day.

I didn't like the Move one enough to write a piece on it. It really underwhelmed me

But the Gundam one is awesome.

ME WANT NAOW!
I want that thing and the game. Damn it KB, you make me proud of being a PS fanboy. Can my cousin have your babies (I would do it if I could, but I can't so I'll have to settle for the next best option)?

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

Yes Mr.Butler you rock that mustache and use it's awesome power. I already have a PS3 but keep that mustache coming.

But the Gundam one is awesome.

I see.

Well I guess you can't like 'em all.

Yeah, I'm with Funk on this one. The Move spot was just a bit...meh. This, however, continues the trend of Butleresque genius.

 

[DividedUnity]

Ahh decent advertising. Nice to see you again. Id thought you had dissapeared after the GoCompare adverts.

OT: that ad makes me want to buy that game it looks awesome.

 

[Jared]

He definetly knows how to advetise! Very funny lol

 

[Lancer873]

SCEA has tended to have a bit of a problem with the advertising department, so this guy is certainly a 1-up... or 50-up... or something.

So is anyone else starting to wonder if this could be the LBP of racing? I'm somewhat interested. Although I suppose there's a problem in that my PS3 went YLoD a while ago... D=
