Sony tend to aim their ads rather than do widespread family friendly ads in the uk.
I even saw an ad for Festival of Blood in a late night C4 programme
Sonys ads tend to be confusing or they target specifically the core gamer.
I mean to us thats just fine with the Kevin Butler ads. But a this point they fall on deaf ears. All core gamers made their choice at this point. Casuals are the only thing that can keep PS3 and 360 going at this point.
So its confusing how Sony still has Kevin Butler because his job is solely to amuse PS3 gamers who allready have a PS3.
At least they've ramped up the advertising, so people can stop using the same lame excuse "They are barely advertised" Uncharted 3/AC:B/Fifa adverts/posters all over the place nowadays.
It's funny, since they've brought the rights to advertising - like MS did with FFXIII and COD it makes it seem like the game is exclusive to that system!
Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

I dont watch tv much but in Australia i never see any ps3 advertising ive seen mw3 and a short 20 second uncharted trailer thats it
.
My favorite Sony commercial is still from the PS2 era
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
I think Sony slept with this guy's girlfriend or something.

I think the problem with Sony advertising is it is inconsistent. Sometimes it's great, sometimes its WTF. Today, for best results, consistency of message is best unless you are supporting an evolving message (somewhat like MS has been).
Take Apple and Nintendo for example, really good, clear absolutely consistent messaging that constantly re-enforces the brand and the core messages for the brand.
Sony advertising I find is like some of its franchises this gen, such as Killzone and Resistance: it keeps changing trying to find the optimal place to be but never seems to do so or stay steady.
MS has also been variable but nonetheless more consistent than Sony, particularly more recently.
Consider how Sony started this gen basically with the message MS has been pushing more recently - entertainment hub and gaming device. At the time it was an early adopter message, but instead of sticking with it Sony switched to pushing a gaming centric message as sales of PS3 disappointed and sales of 360 grew, basically switching tack to try and match MS's much simpler - it's HD gaming - message. More recently Sony has swung back to the original message with "it only does everything" but I think they've never really presented that message well. MS meanwhile have simply allowed their message to evolve from gaming to entertainment hub in line with the market.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
