It hasn't gone viral, it's just advertised a whole lot. Pretty much any time I load a video on youtube it shows up as an ad. Nothing wrong with advertising your product, but there is a bit of a difference.

I haven't read the thread or op, but I dont really take much faith in view counts for anything online. Too easy to manipulate by users that like companies, and by companies that do "social media buzz" as their service.

I voted 45M-50M. I hope I end up being wrong, too, and it gets way more than that.

It definitely helps that it's being advertised..but unless you click the commercial to load the video seperately it doesn't count as a view. At least that's what I read over at gaf a while back

25 million views! And MS said no one would know about it. Hell I've got people at work that hardly play games that know about it.

You are correct:

http://techcrunch.com/2011/06/19/youtube-counts-video-ads-regular-views/

The embedded (forced) ads JWeinCom refers to do not count as a view. Only the videos that get willingly clicked count. So if there is an ad in any website, one must click it to watch it and have it counted as a view in youtube. In orther words it is a very successful ad campaign. Sony was right to fire the previous marketing agency.
