Forums - Sony - Why doesn't Sony advertise the PS3 in NA much?

AnarchyWest on 06 September 2008

Could be where I just live but latley I haven't seen any Sony TV advertisement for the PS3...I remember at launch there were commericials all the time, then last year there was the  "Ladies and Gentlemen" commericial...Earlier this year they had MLB 08 the Show...But for the last 3-4 months I haven't seen anything to do with PS3 with the exception of the MGS4 commercial that I saw once. Im hoping this Holiday season Sony start putting out advertisment for the PS3 one with Socom would be great...

Anyone else agree?

Nothing to show commercials over...

Resi 2 and LBP will obviously have spots, but right now, not too much to show.

Expect it during holidays. Sony is trying to save some $$$.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Because Sony see North America is a lost cause. There is no way they can catch up to the Wii or the 360 in this upcoming holiday season. Sony is really pushing the PS3 in the Europe market where they can easily beat out the 360 and take some of the Wii market shares. PS3 is like 4 millions units behind the 360 in North America.

 So what was the point of the BC 80g model? I dont think they do see it as a lost cause (North America)

 i completley disagree with Sony being a lost cause in NA. They may never catch the 360 userbase in NA but its still am important region to sell systems and half of Sony's studios (SCEA) are in NA!
