Once again SONY does a foolish & stupid thing that makes me go WTF

I mean they do frikkin drink commercials with MGS4 in it for Japan where the game SELLS the LEAST..& in NA they aren't even doing a TV Commercial.......

Nice reward for letting Konami keep it exclusive to PS3 SONY..not even bothering to market the game, I mean this is THE BIG game for PS3 this year since FF13 & GT 5 are delayed!

What are your thoughts...will it hinder the sales??

PS: No news on EU marketing yet..

THIS IS A RUMOR

All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I mean LOOK at the trailer in my SIG

if SONY put that on TV it would sell and extra 300K copies to PS3 owners on the fence about MGS4

It will sell but it's still stupid of them to not market it. Why??? Don't they want to sell games and consoles? It's like if Sony is digging their own grave. Makes no sense at all!

I think it will. A TV spot will remind non-hardcore gamers of MGS that they played during the ps and/or ps2-era. It might even bring new people to try it out.
