Forums - Microsoft - ( It's More Fun Time ) New Xbox360 Campaign

sega4life on 23 November 2009

So Microsoft has kicked off it's new Campaign a couple weeks ago.

It's a huge push for the casual, family, adoption of the unit.

Here are some of the new people involved in the new Ad Campaign, will add more if more are added.


________________________________________


Disney has signed with them now to include Jonas Brothers, including a special new opening to their show on Disney.

Check out those videos here.(also interactive website, and Disney Channel Contests) More kids obviously know them or will see these commercials more.


Jane Lynch (the actress) has also joined the new campaign.

You can check out her videos here. More Adults obviously know her or will see these commercials more offten



It seems MS has a good strategy going, pick a station, and set the commercials up for those stations were the person your trying to attract is watching.

Adults get Jane, kids get the brothers.

If you watched the Pats vs Jets game then you saw a bunch of Jane Xbox commercials today, that and the Best Buy MW2 Xbox360 ones.

I saw one of the Jane Lynch commercials and I think it was weak as hell. I understand the whole trying to appeal to a vast audience thing but it was still weak. Now the PS3 commercials are funny as hell.....he doesn't even like candles. MS needs to bring more than the 40 yr. old virgin chic. Yeah adults "get" her but they get her a lot more when she's offering adult comedy, a cougar with dick jokes.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

and adult casual will typically stick with their Wii if you ask me.

no way they will buy one of the "HD console for little boy"

EXCEPT if they buy it for their little boy ...



Time to Work !

they should gather whole Whose Line Is It Anyway crew(though Colin and Ryan would be enough) or Hugh Laurie to make some commercials.

now that would be awesome.

the one commercial is actually really quite good.

The on when she takes the mic and says he cant use it.



For some reason though a lot of the commercials reminded me of LBP.

The sony commercials are really good though. I want them ones in the uk instead of the ones we got now.

They can try but ultimately will fail in Hardware adoption. I suppose this is Microsofts last push before a new console next year

Microsoft is not launching a new console next year. Natal comes out next year

@^ yeah with a new console Microsoft would be mad to not have a new console for it. For a design like Natal it should be built around a new console not one that will maybe get a couple of million then fade away be best from the ground up. May be better to re brand it too without the Microsoft name on it will guarantee a few million extra sales
