So firstly, Sony is the sponsor of the Champions League, ie the most prestigous actual football competition

And in terms of exclusives, Naughty Dog, Sony Santa Monica and Media Molecule all have PS4 games under wraps (actually Guerilla do as well, but that might be further away)

But the M$ marketing machine is going to be absurd, though it didn't manage to convince people about Windows 8 even though that is fundamentally a good product

Although it sold 100 million software it still didn't convince people... ok. You can name studios but where are the games?

Sorry friend but people that watch Champions League Soccer aren't the people that is gonna get convinced by ads.

100 million people watch Superbowl and most of them stay for Superbowl ads which is a fest itself. The best of the year.

Well the thing is, Media Molecule has been working on Tearaway as well, SCE Santa Monica released GoW Ascension earlier this year and Naughty Dog released the Last of Us in June. They all have second teams who have been working on these games. The games will probably be announced soon, but they already have 5 first party exclusives announced for PS4 (and 2 for PS3)

Oh okay then, nobody in Europe who watches "Champions League Soccer" pays any attention to the ads despite the final being the most watched sporting event in the world. Oh, and this sponsorship leads to advertsing for over 100 matches... Unlike the SuperBowl where anyone watching internationally gets different adverts, everyone sees the pitch side ads which is where Sony sponsor.

And finally, I seem to recally Sony advertising God of War Ascension at the Superbowl yet the game not selling well, funny that
