Hey that was a pretty great ad. I just wonder when MS is going to start kicking their marketing into high gear because I still have yet to see a X1 add on TV.

Just read that they will start with their huge campaign on Sunday in USA and next week in UK.

Man, they're waiting until the last second to do any serious marketing. Wonder why?

What a great ad!



pretty fun ad, good job MS



What I get from that is that the xb1 is apparently made for One. No one is enjoying the thing together. Pretty big reversal from all the happy families enjoying Kinect.

Presumably because they are sure to sell the inital shipments and they are ramping up ad's to get interest for holidays and beyond?

True, didn't think about that. Why bother advertising months in advance if you're going to sell out your initial shipment anyways? I guess by doing it this way they can probably save money as well as have more focused advertising (read: bigger campaign in a shorter time).



Really fun ad. Great job.
