Seems marketing is trying to make the PS3 as mysterious as possible. Could be effective if people still know that it is a good gaming system and don't need reminding, but bad for those that have no idea what the PS3 is.

With all the hype and kiosks, though, I think it's pretty clever. Even if it [i24da178afe]is[/i24da178afe] a dumb commercial.

That commercial is creepy. That baby seems like it could be out of a scary movie.

That was a retarded commercial, I would give Buster389 -KMA if it was still around for showing it to me.

I don't like it and if I were in charge of marketing it I would definitely not take that road to advertise it. It seems like it's going to make parents feel like this console is going to control their children or has an addicting and an obsessive side to it.

Supposedly the shorthand logo for PlayStation 3 (PS3)

Look at what this commercial did, it made us make a discussion and talk about it on this forum. Now everyone is going to be like " Wow, did you see that weird, creepy, ps3 commercial?"


I believe that it is good advertisement, it gets the viewers attention very well, but mysteriously

///7 looks like 11/17, the date its coming out.

I thought the commercial was creepy and if I were a parent, this definitely would not motivate me to go spend $600 or more to get the PS3. I'd like to know who made (and then who approved) such a bad commercial. Those people are retarded.

Now isn't it funny that when you see a Head on commercial they make fun of themselves yet promote the product? It's a very good marketing tactic.

Yeah, that was clever marketing too. Wasn't really keen on the commercial... After all, the product advertised killed one of my favorite video game consoles.
