facepalm

The ad doesn't even mention the ps3. I didn't get that message at all. I do agree that it lies about 3G gaming though.(you can only see leaderboards, unless seeing leaderboards counts as gaming.....*thinks hard*)

I didn't say it mentioned the PS3. People just seem to think they can play Vita vs. PS3. Even in some other threads on this site, people think they'll be playing Call of Duty Vita vs. Call of Duty on the PS3. Who knows? Maybe they will.

One thing I do know--Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is advertised as a "Cross platform game". How do I know? Because, as soon as I purchased the Vita version, I googled it and saw mention that people that purchased the PS3 version would get the Vita version for free. I was pissed beyond belief! Then, I did a little more research. Turns out, you don't get the Vita version for free. You can't play vs PS3 players, either. What they meant was that, if you purchase DLC on the PS3 version, you get the same DLC on the Vita version. That's your Cross Platform right there. Awesome, eh?

One could argue that's once again people not doing their research properly and not reading between the lines.

I don't see where the PS3 links into the advert. Or is this about not being able to game over 3G? Because that did seem misleading. Will 3G online gaming be available in the future?

I don't want to turn this into a PS Vita vs 3DS discussion, hopefully it can just stick to misleading ads, but I forgot to post this 3DS ad a while ago which pissed me off, it was quite misleading and arrogant.

mind to elaborate?

Yes, dishonest people could argue that.

Yup! just like Axe commercial that if I use it every girl that smell the scent of it will make the girls fall in love with me. Welcome to the world of advertising.

The end kind of ruined it but I don't see how its arrogant.

OT: No, people need to sort things out. I never got a vibe that told me that I can play with people on the PS3.

Over here in Uk-Land, we call Axe Lynx and I can confirm it actually works, what is suggested is the same as what actually happens.
