Yeah I definitely find myself laughing like crazy at those.

The one with the girl whose BF hadn't connected the PS3 to the internet yet and didn't like candles was the funniest!



I remembered him in other ads before the PS ones =) Like Geico and another company.

He did Holiday Inn.  Maybe it is because I follow videogames, that I remember these, and not the others.  But I believe his work here is probably the best he has done in ads.  He really cracks me up in those spots, with the mix of WTF and feeling like he is in control.  He does need to do E3.  Love the job titles also for him.  These are the best ad spots Sony has for the PS3 I believe thus far (the Black Onyx was good also though).



This web page says the ad agency being the Kevin Butler spots also did the Mac vs PC spots:

I like the Mac vs. PC ads too.

Sony needs to do something similar to those when the Kevin Butler stuff ends.

I hate the Mac vs. PC ads.  They need to stop singling out Windows' minor issues and start actually advertising their product for a change.  I have much experience with Macs and they have many annoying issues as well, not to mention to get equal performance on a Mac I have to pay twice as much.....

Sorry for going off topic.  The PS3 ads are great because they are advertising what the PS3 does and not taking shots at MS or Nintendo.  The Mac ads just make me want to punch something because of how blatantly they deceive people.

Yes.  Have you fallen for their scare tactics and deception?  They overblow every small windows issue.  Macs have many issues themselves that they never care to mention.
