Sony Throws PS3 Into HDTV for Newest Ad Campaign

[DamienHell]

Good job, Sony. We approve of more ads featuring wanton destruction of expensive electronic equipment. Next, how about you throw a PS3 Slim and 360 Elite at each other and see who wins?

I think it would tie, they would both be smashed to bits. It would however RULE!

 

[TheBarefootBandit]

That was pretty cool.

 

[sneak_copter]

Flush it down the toilet.

That ought to stir up some shit
*ba* *dum* *tish*

When I read the headline, I thought it meant that sony built a PS3 into a tv. Dissapointed.

Video was cool though. Slow motion destruction is always fun.

 

[Pendragon9]

That commercial is made of pure awesome. IT certainly beats cheese you can take outside.

 

[Anarchemitis]

Well, I guess Sony is doing their job right.
Where I work, Bravia TVs are probably the most distributed item in the entire joint after Gift Cards and boxes of CDs.

 

[mikecoulter]

I did it first.

 

[axia777]

I say that was badass too. When it hits the TV is so cool. It ripples like water. I want to see what happened to the insides of the PS3. I bet it is just all in little pieces.

 

[Elesar]

...I approve

 

[Gigano]

Hmm, I'm not sure having your products have gladitorial contests with eachother is the marketing way to go when you're a manufacturer of expensive electronics. Still the randomness of it all, and some pointless slowmotion destruction of objects is good enough, I guess.

Anyway, where do we get one for free exactly? Because I've been looking to get one and if I don't have to pay, bring it on.

You have to buy a Bravia tv...so you'll only get set back $1000 dollars or so...you know, after moving to Australia and all. (where all gamers are treated fairly )

Do it with an original xbox, that thing could take out a fucking bank vault.

I laugh...because you are right...and those controllers were truly dangerous if thrown...

Where I work, Bravia TVs are probably the most distributed item in the entire joint after Gift Cards and boxes of CDs.

Do you work in Australia?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What I'm interested in though is that this sale seems to make an active enough push for Sony wanting a greater hold on gamers in the land down under...the fact that it involves the person buying a large LCD tv means Sony can do so without appearing desperate and it looks like pure power play...

 

[ae86gamer]

I prefer the funny commercials.

All they did in this one was ruin a good tv and ps3.

Do you work in Australia?

I work in a Warehouse in Canada.

That was anti-climactic =( I was hoping the initial ripples were the PS3 going into the TV like it was water.

same here!

hey i have an idea (an awful one) for the next ad: Sony drops thousands of PS3s all over Nigeria like care packages, but with no parachutes, then we laugh as people die of massive head trauma!

Note: make sure no one at Sony reads that, they may actually try it!

 

[VanityGirl]

Me and my boyfriend watched this twice just to make sure we weren't missing something.
What was the point of that?

 

[Smasngrab]

a more realistic test would be a controller at a tv, i usualy aim at the sofa instead, controllers are expancive, and tvs even more so.....

 

[LeonLethality]

and this is why sony's ad campaigns are awesome

 

[DustyDrB]

The message is lost on me. PS3: when you can't find a suitable brick.
