obviously they wouldnt show a game...because they werent advertising a game. And nintendo is definitely the only company to ever have people in their ads......

Its the style of the ad that MS has copied. In Nintendo ads they have people on a couch playing games with each other and the MS ad is exactly the same. Including the camera angle where the camera would be where the tv is.

 

 

I'm not sure there are many ways you could depict people actually playing the console other than being on the couch or being on the floor. I think it's a better ad then what sony puts out, sure they show the games, but it feels like they alienate casuals when they only show gameplay and those weird ads with the circus acts. Also, the new buzz game depicts the exact same thing (people sitting on the couch playing games with each other).

Thankfully, neither Microsoft nor Sony have felt it necessary to place a person in each ad saying "come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on".... everytime I hear that my soul dies a little inside (the girl/daughter does it in the Mario Kart ad and one of the guys do it in the Brawl ad).
