Forums - Microsoft - Kinect JoyRide Commercial released.

Microsoft will advertise this to hell and will sell like crazy.

Am I the only one who thinks that there is no way a young boy would get excited after losing to his sister?

What a happy fucking family! People are going to eat this shit up and ask for seconds. I like how the Kinect device nods at the end, kinda saying, "hey I'm alive and cute, you must own me".

Haha yeah I've always liked that ^^



 

That was a horrible commercial.... what I got from it was that the parents want to fuck each other, you have to air thrust to boost, the boy is an annoying brat, the family have a huge living room, children now see a loss as fun, everyone I've ever known suffer severe depression in comparison to their enthusiasm and that Joy Ride looks like a completely unappealing game. Obviously it's not aimed at me, but I still can't believe people are stupid enough to fall for commercials like these, gives me a ShamWow, Mr. T Cooking Appliance, Ab King kinda vibe.

Remind's me a little of this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqziShsZhgw, except the girl in this video is kinda hot and has a nice smile.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

It is safe to assume that when it comes to casual gaming; Marketing quality = 90% of total sales.

This is good marketing.. the question is, are there more casuals out there that havent already purchased a wii?

 

personally the commercial makes me want to vomit all over my shoes.



̶3̶R̶D̶   2ND! Place has never been so sweet.

I thought this game wasn't supposed to be that good..based on previews...I'm surprised MS shelled out money for a 90 second commercial on this when they could've spent it on something that is supposed to be extremely awesome....like Dance Central.

Did the previews  say you had to stand to play?  That alone gives it a big ding against it.  I did see that video over xbox live.



That commercial made me 1000% sure I'm not getting that damn game. They should make it free again.



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

Oh look, an advert for the Wii made by insincere psychopaths...

Haha, well put.

More like: To Wii and Move "Hey, I'm alive and cute, I'm gonna pwn you"

Call me a boring old traditionalist but I'd rather play that game with a controller of some description in my hand. I think it will appeal to the casuals, but mostly only those casuals who have not played Wii. Whereas Dance Central and the fitness applications will appeal even to those casuals who have played the Wii equivalents.

That's what makes this sad they will eat this up.
