Playstation 3 invokes servitude of doll youth! Also: the Gears of War commercial!!!!

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

Actually, yes, the Gary Jules version was commissioned specifically for the Donnie Darko soundtrack.

I retract that statement then. Also, you know too much.

The Gears of War advert is stupid, its just misleading people into thinking what its not.

On the other hand, that PS3 advert was awesome. Ive always liked Sony's advertising, except the first PS3 advert, that was terrible...

[fantasyjunkie]

good or bad advertising, doesn't matter. I can't afford $600

[RiseToFall]

The commercial for GoW kind of sucked, though I think the game will turn out to be pretty good. It's a straight up shooter and looks to be fun. I do have to say that even though I like this game, I absolutely hate Cliff Blezinsky.

[Sephex]

Obviously, a shooter set in a generic post-apocalyptic cityscape rendered entirely in dull browns and grays, whose protagonist is another generic square-jawed space marine, is certain to appeal to the arty Donnie Darko crowd.

Numbr 3456 why I wish I could hang with you in real life: No ****, man. My thoughts exactly. I pretty much said this when it was shown during the previews of a movie I saw on saturday.

[Vermachtnis]

Seeing that doll thingy crying does not make me want to buy a PS3.
That new commercial with the exploding Rubix Cube does though, cause exploisions are awesome.

[Yamaneko]

How is the GoW commercial misleading? They show in-game graphics and the main character blasting stuff and getting fired at in a post-apocalyptic landscape. If you find fault with the music then you should also find fault with all those WW2 shooters that are set to similar music. It's a cinematic technique where tranquil music is used to emphasize the dangerous environment the character is in.

[Spammerman]

There is also another version using Highway to Hell for the GoW commercial.

My biggest gripe with that GoW commercial is it doesn't tell if the game might be any good. For all I know it could be some really smurfed up tetris inspired puzzle game that happens to be a DooM rip off.

I likes the Ps3 commersial with the Cube exploding. It looked cool, and my dad laughed (The only times he laughs is when watching Family guy or south park. Everyone laughes with those shows though.)

[~SapphireStar~]

What the hell?
That had to be one of the creepiest and worst ads Ive ever seen!

Trust me, from what I saw, this game kicks ass. You start ass-kicking right after the tutorial, and it has a chainsaw bayonet Look it up on google videos. The AI is smart enough to duck sometimes if youre shooting at them, and they'll jump over the wall that your on and blast your brains out if youre not careful.

Multiplayer looks nice too.

You seem to have missed the point of what I said. Who cares if you can go online and find that stuff out. The commercial is suppose to do that and if fails at that...big time.

[MecaKane]

No it's not.
Look at the PS3 commercial.
Look at all the other hype-o-tron commercials!
Look at the smurfing commercials for the Simpsons movie trailer!
Those commercials serve their purpose, they let people know something big is coming.
