I didn't see any of these last weekend, but I've seen a few others. Maybe that's the stuff that works in America, trying to sell an image above everything else. Sony's ads are pretty much the same. Nintendo, on the other hand, shows gameplay.

Anyway, I doubt that's going to prevent the One from going into freefall mode come the new year, because eventually the hype/image needs to be backed up by substance.

PS: The Jennifer ad was stupid.

Tad disingenuous and surprisingly naive

There are plenty of gameplay ads for the Xbox One, you must be avoiding them intentionally. But advertising is all about creating an image, a lifestyle and a sale.

As for Nintendo... havent seen a wiiu ad for months.   You are a little salty lately arent you... "freefall mode"? nice.

It seems that there are only hard core M$ fans that can buy into the idea that the XB1 will succeed in more ways than just one(gaming).  Too bad people aren't giving the whole idea of it a better chance.  Once the mainstream media gets a chance to really use the XB1 in a home environment, things could change quite quickly on the whole "it's not worth $499" line of thinking.
