Pfffffffbahwhahahahahahahaha
Sorry, I...just......really?......The eurovision song contest is the audience they're going for? I assume the extent of their campaign will not only consist of stickers right? Riiight? I mean, they will actually run ads on the damn show exclusively right? A show that my mother and grandmother watch......I...don't know how to react to this.
Sorry about this gibberish.

They will show at E3 their new singing videogame, first edition with the songs of this year's Eurovision. It will happen.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Thank you. You've just made sense of the world again.

Because if there is one thing Europeans love it's Microsoft consoles.

I don't get it.

Why does a singing competition need to have an official game console? Is it MS trying to take the karaoke game market away from Singstar? Not sure it's much of a strategy as a way to boost sales in Europe. It will boost profile but to what end I wonder?

When has advertising in an event viewed by 200 million people ever been bad?? It's viewed by everyone from babies to grandmas.

Xbox for casuals confirmed! :o

You are from UK so you don't feel this, but most of Europe say playstation when referring to xbox or any video game system.

I think this a great move to raise awareness of the brand, it needs to start from the old people when giving gifts to the children/grandchildren.
