What's the dumbest game related marketing you've ever seen?

Good as a honorable mention, but those weren't ads

Otherwise I could ad(d) these here:

"16 times the detail"

"It just works"

"You guys don't have phones?"

They were major marketing fails, though, so it fits the topic of this thread. Sony was trying to sell the PS3 to the world at E3. Sony shot themselves in the foot right out of the gate. It's honestly a testament to the strength of the PlayStation brand that they fought the 360 to a (somewhat pyrrhic) draw after that.

I knew pyrrhic victory not draw =p

Tell him that if all other vacuum cleaner worked without electricity and one only worked with it, that would have issues to sell. Now if it done the same without electricity but had a plus the others didn't when on electricity that would be a different thing. This morrow worked at MS?

Yes, but he didn't work at Microsoft for long after those tweets surfaced. Neither did his boss, Don Mattrick, who was just as condescending to prospective Xbone buyers. Microsoft protested over people calling it the "Xbone."

I just googled him. He now works for Sony Music Entertainment.

Understood, it surprises me that these twarts still manage to get good jobs after fucking up majorly.
