no sarcasm, aside from kevin butler i hate everything about sony's marketing.  i mean really, the scary baby commercial?  who the fuck green lit that idea?!?

sony has some great offerings and great games but they fail to convey that to anyone.  i'm still annoyed they didnt advertising free access to online gaming and psn+.  i still run into 360 owners that are surprised to hear they only they are getting charged to play their games online. and psn+ ought to be a huge motivator to cheapskate gamers who want a lot of gaming for their buck.

I was more so referring to the fact that about a month ago Sony DID fire majority of their marketing staff. I thought you were slighly alluding to that lol. I agree, the crying baby? How did that ever get on tv?

I really wonder why it is so hard for them to make a decent commercial. They seem to always have a good product but stumble in demonstrating it in a 30sec advertisment. They could at least go the safe route and have a plain jane spec walkthrough commercial so ppl know what they are getting. I do think they also should essensuate the fact certain games are exclusives, not ports in the ad. Someone still might thing AC:L is just portable  ACIII.

@top: did they actually fire anyone?  i thought all they did was restructure so that 5 independanly operating marketing groups all reported to a common set of leadership.  i mean, there was probably some "redundancy" but overall i was under the impression it was the same team of people.

@bottom: completly agree.  i know AC:L is a completely different game but the slogan really just makes it look like a direct port.  that isn't going to sell many people, they need to know it is an exclusive game.
