But the truth of the matter is that Sony is just losing themselves sales by insulting the expanded audience. I don't know about anyone else, but I've bought 5 copies of kinect adventures, and am willing to spend half my paycheck every week on these shitty games, because THEY ARE FUN for the 5 minutes a day I get to play them. I never get bored of those games, and if you ask me, SLOWNY needs to get with the times, because shitty commuter games are the future.

Kevin Butler is there to promote the "hardcore" games. I'm guessing most people who follow KB on twitter aren't too excited about the new Eyepet game.

LOL, no it doesn't, it means Sony failed at attracting the causals, so they've decided to try and be ambassadors to the core gamers. Bit like how Lady Gaga panders to gays to get sales/fanbase.
Anyway I think the 'It only does ____' is great advertising from Sony, Kevin Butler, not so much. But then Sony's advertising has never been great so I can see why they want to hang onto a good thing.
Also CGI who are you kidding (actually who am I kidding) he doesn't need to name Wii/Kinect to know who he's aiming that at. 'pew pew pew' .. you'd need to be a divvy not to get it. Again he's just pandering to the insecure hardcore.
EPIC!
Can't wait to see KB advertising the Vita.

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

The "pew, pew, pew" ad was obvious - not the case here. Regardless, the only people who'd be bothered by it would be insecure. Companies poke fun all the time, if people take it personal, the joke's on them. How many times has Microsoft or Nintendo said something in regards to Sony this gen? It happens, and I see no reason to take it personal. Buy the games you like and forget the rest. |
I don't think anyone's going to be bothered by it tbh, slagging off the competition rarely works as good advertising. In fact the only time I've ever seen it work is I'm a Mac, and you know how deluded Apple fans are so no wonder they protect it. But yeah, the fact that the pew pew pew thing was done means Sony are insecure/jealous ect ect.
I'm not talking about what MS/Nintendo or even Sony have said, heck even MS have said when talking about Kinect 'This isn't just your simple waggle' which I'd class exactly the same, I'm not sure they'd even acknowledge the Wii these days in that vein, they don't need to, they're doing v well.
