Forums - Sony - Kevin Butler to star in PlayStation ads for rest of 2010

Source: playstation.joystiq.com

 

Kevin Butler, you need not worry: Your job as Sony's VP of First Person Shooter Relations is in no threat of ending. Neither is your job as Chief Weaponologist, VP of Epic Footage, VP of Big Action Moments and -- our favorite -- Family Activities Director. In an interview with IGN, SCEA senior vice president Peter Dille talked about the company's new "It Only Does Everything" slogan and marketing campaign. "It's been tremendously successful. Consumers love it. It's great to hear people like you guys love it. And the results are really in the sales because it's really been flying since this coincided in September with the launch of the new PS3."

The tremendous success of the ad campaign has guaranteed its continuation through 2010. "You can expect to see Kevin Butler inject a lot of life into the PlayStation brand between now and the rest of the year," Dille commented, and promised we'd see the tagline quite a bit "when motion control comes onto the scene." We personally cannot wait to see the ad Butler will star in for the PlayStation Motion Controller.

 

Rest of the year!? Why not for the rest the generation?

Excellent.



This is great, the Kevin Butler ads are funny, and they do a great job explaining the strengths of the PS3 as well. I vastly prefer the "It Only Does Everything" commercials over the "Jump In" and two japanese guy commercials, although there was that one 360 commercial where everyone starts shooting each other that I love...



Currently playing: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, NBA2k11, Metal Gear Solid, Picross 3d

Yeah, why limit this to this year only, I want to see Kevin Butler's face in every Playstation 3 commercial for the rest of this gen. Its too good of a ad campaign to give up, especially with the possibilty of them going back to their old ways



They are the greatest commercials. I love them. Every time I see them I laugh my ass off.

Good news. It's possibly the best ad campaign Playstation has ever had, and the great thing about it is the freedom that the current ad formula presents. As PS3 owners (or potential employees) could have any concievable problem, they can literally make jokes about anything.



 

good news to me!!! "don't fix something that ain't broke!"



I like Kevin Butler, hate the "It Only Does Everything" slogan, but that guy is FUNNY!



the guy is creepy he has no facial expressions no emotions like the terminator
