Microsoft France released a new commercial of the Xbox One, and it’s a quite interesting one. It doesn’t show any gameplay, but it aims instead for the heart strings.

Basically it tells, in 20 seconds “a marvelous story of friendship between a boy and his console,” aiming to be the perfect Christmas commercial, and the French are rather big on Christmas.

You can check it out below and judge for yourself if it’s effective.

i dont understand what u mean by heart strings there trying to get people emotional about the comercial about an "object" or somthing? wish they had it in english cause all i understood was him taking it out under a tree and showing his friends.. i did like the canadian comercial with the song it's kind of directed with the ps4 comercial were they actuley show game play..

Plenty of Xbox One adverts to go around!

Ok, the Xbox going for the ball was funny.

This isn't an emotional commercial. It's supposed to be funny. And it also fails to advertise the console in any meaningful way.

That was pretty funny.

Not gonna lie, it's a horrible TV ad but I still laughed.

That was a horrible TV ad.

.....France is weird...no offense to the French.

Kinect... Launch bing... Search for "the ball" ............................
