I watch a fair amount of TV...don't see many adverts but here goes. UK based so UK ads.

M$ and 360: They currently have their adverts in 2 ways. Ones that advertise a console as a media device, where they should someone pulled some dodgy face then it swings round the back of their head to 'show' what they are seeing/thinking and it's meant to show that the person is enjoying themselves etc. Then they Plaster a price over the add saying 'From £129.99'. This is fine except one of the adverts says you can download Movies, but still advertises the £129.99 price, yes it says from but consumers don't see the small print saying HD required.
There is also oddly an advert for James Bond game, and then at the end it saying available on 360 from £129.99. Isn't it a Sony owned movie franchise?

Nintendo do their same old same old, get random celebrities to advertise their products as fun family things, Wii has the Redknapp family at the moment playing Wii Fit and something else (can't see what), which includes Jamie, Harry and the lovely Louise. DS is the same, advertise with a celeb playing the games, currently this is Mario Kart DS with all of Girls Aloud (Nice ad just for them) and then one with Patrick Stewart and Julia Walters playing Brain training on a Plane.

Sony...well, to be honest I haven't seen one in a while. Seriously. Except the FIFA 09 one and that was good.

Overall, I prefer ...well, currently they all suck. If Sony's recent ads I've seen online are actually being shown on TV then, them but I haven't seen any so...



Hmm, pie.
