Forums - General Discussion - Most elaborate nonsensical video commercial ever for the PS3

I like those, and I like this but I guess people want logic in their commercials, I don't lol

I understand why other people find 'em weird, but I prefer weird stuff over the same old crap.

Still the commercial makes no sense.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

God, any excuse after the fact eh ckmlb? Oh well, if the worst thing Sony does is their commercials then I think we can all consider ourselves blessed. They're probably trying to appeal to the mentality that was the adult swim crowd several years ago when random and chaotic humor was the in thing.



I actually that thought that commercial was very well done. Doesn't do much to showcase the PS3, but good cinematography nonetheless, albeit random.

And judging by how many comments/interest that ad has been getting, I'd say Sony reached their objective with this one.



True True, they are getting attention and Publicity, i wonder if it will translate into sales though. Only time will tell.



Except there wasnt anything funny in these, just lots of ad acting

Well there's a guy who starts masturbating to a soccer match.. I think that says it all.



This is your mind on drugs.

This is taking 'appealing to the adult market' a bit to far...



So was the suitcase full of money supposed to represent what you need to bring to the store in order to buy one?



I have seen those, IMO a strange way to promote the PS3. Are consumers supposed to identify themselves with any of those people shown in the commercial? Everytime I watch them I feel speechless. I rather watch some more lighthearted Ratched and Clank, Singstar or Little Big Planet footage.
