I have MAG pre-ordered and THAT COMMERCIAL IS FREAKING HILARIOUS!!! I practically fell out of my chair when poor Kevin realized the kid was applying for HIS job BWAHAHAHAHA, Home run with this one Sony Home run!!!



FOREVER IN DARKNESS!!!

Why is SkyNet wearing a PS3 Logo???


 

A really good ad would be for them to show 256 people playing a game of basketball, baseball, football, or hockey and then say how more players make a game even better.



These commercials rock the socks of rapping ducks.



Kevin Butler = WIN!

Can't wait to see how they have him doing Heavy Rain, God of War 3 and Gran Turismo 5

They can do another montage one with WKC, would be nice to have one with all rpgs. It only does rpgs!

Lag in MAG? Nope, haven't experienced it personally, and I've played in 256-player battles. I can comfortably say that this won't be a game for everyone but know MANY people who are buying it.

Regardless, Sony officially has the coolest ad-campaigns in the biz.

@DGC, if you don't know the type of lag i'm talking about, you wouldn't notice it in the game, especially without killcam.  It's something all MW2 players know and hate quite well though.  Also, just curious, but is your connection speed in mb or kb?  Because 100+mb connection is pretty much non-existant except in a very select few areas in Europe or something military.

@CGI, is it true that they use invisible walls, and that most of the time it isn't actually 128v128 and is just smaller squad battles?  Thats just some of the stuff I heard and I want to know what the reality is.  Is it really 128v128, or is it basically a giant map that is broken down into much smaller map sections via invisible walls and focuses on squad vs. squad combat?

I just had to post to this..

"100mb connection is pretty much non-existant and something military". I know we're quite advanced tech wise but i didn't know it was that bad around the world. I'd say pretty much 98% of all internet providers here in Sweden can deliver 100mb to any household. I sit on a 100/100 connection and pay about 30$ for it. Haha "something military" made me laugh hard.. not laughing at you, but at the fact that a 100mb connection is regarded as something futuristic and Area 51ish :D
