Looking at the crap YV ads Sony have started putting on in th UK the PS3 wont sell crap loads lol it really is one crap ad it's hilarious

I concurr. They seem to have taken the "it probably does just about everything" and decided to throw it all into a 30 second advert again leaving you wondering what the hell that was all about. They should take a leaf out of the MS ads. The MS adverts are clean they focus on a message and they have numerous versions to reinforce the different messages. The only good bit about the PS3 advert is the end, I actually do not mean that as it sounds I literally mean the end when they show the console and the ribbon runs through it, that is the only time the advert makes any sense.

That's just what they suspect US demographic require (emphasis on the price drop) to sell there system. 

Here's the UK's version incase your curious http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cy_YQV8EhYw it's completely different and isn't centered around the price drop. Infact in the UK I've never seen an advert so much so simply around the price of the product as the US PS3's advert.
