Haha that FIFA 10 PS advert was epic!! Will try to find a youtube clip - PS3's definitely won the football sales yet this year especially after the slim price cut.

its just the right time now alot more effective advertising a console with a price that wont scare people away compared to two years ago.

they couldnt have done this back then.... the ad ends with "new ps3 slim...out now £249.99"

try that with "new ps3...out now £425" people would (and did) say "wtf! how much!?"

That's a good point.

I have never seen a PS3 ad for a multi-platform game until the NFS one last week. As someone mentioned MS always advertised multi-platform games and made them seemed like 360 exclusives.

Although the developers get "free" advertising on their game when MS does this it must piss them off that the work/money they put in on the PS3 version gets no promotion. This of course benifits MS but not the developers if those consumers who don't know any better assume the advertised game to be only on x360.

Obviously your average gamer will know better so maybe sony isn't too bother and can too see it as a "free" ad courtesy of MS but who knows.

Yes it smells horrid all this smoke and mirrors. Along with them buying timed exclusive map packs, games. It's all very petty aswell.
