Sony has already begun its advertising campaign for the PS3 Slim, but Xbox fans have sought to highlight the advantages of their console with some guerilla Photoshop work:
This is of course a tacit reference to the astonishing progress the Xbox 360 has made in reducing the size of its power brick…
Sony itself has a rather curious TV advertising campaign, though it fails to include anything so crude as an actual game, or for that matter any details of the product itself…

Those commercial are scary. :O
Why can't sony do something cunning instead of these odd ball commercials? Sony never learned how to advertise. I have a ps3 and it's the best console ever but I really dislike those commercials. :/
Umm.. If you've ever looked at sony's marketing record, you'll see nothing but failures in advertising.
- Racist PSP billboard ads where a white person is dominating over a black person.
- Sony's own website where they were actually trying to perform side by side comparisons of Gran Turismo HD vs. Project Gotham Racing 3, claiming their screenshots were so much better while the PGR3 screens were crap. Unfortunately they didn't bother to check the better screenshots they were promoting, were actually the PGR3 screens.
- A fake PSP "fan" site, promoting the handheld as a cool multipurpose device. It was easily determined that site was made by sony's marketing staff.
- Decapitating a real goat just to serve soup from it's body to promote God of War II.
- Gran Turismo poster that includes a rear shot of a car, but it includes PGR3 in the license plate. Which means it's an image from stolen from Project Gotham Racing 3 again.
I can list more, but it just keeps on going, and it would take an eternity to describe the stupidity of sony marketing staff.
It's curious, I was under the impression that their previous advertisings included at least some game footage or something, but now that you point out this... yeah, maybe they just aren't as effective now.
WOW Dosent think like this, i buy a Xbox 360 yet
FUCK SONY ^^
I forgot to mention the idea for the ad they're showing here is actually stolen from a photographer named Phil Toledano, where he did a similar photo series in a video of people's faces while they were playing video games. The photo series were made in 2002.
You can see the video here:
http://mrtoledano.com/frame_videogamers.php
Toledano has been asked by several gaming sites if sony asked for permission and he has replied, "It pretty much looks like they happily ripped me off..."
So there's a good chance there's going to be a legal issue concerning this ad soon.
This pretty much lists yet another marketing flub by sony's marketing staff.
No shit the PS3 commercial wouldn't have games in it.
i think it's time to build bigger power supply for XBOX360 in returns for bigger b00b's game.
.
Hey, I like my power brick. It's perfect for dashing someones brains out.
I buy a Ps3 too well i like the Xbox 360 more but the Picture is Cool^^
I'm an Xbox owner and I found this hilarious
You sure it was 360 fans who made that, or trolls?
LOL HAHA!
Seeing as your ps3/360 (not wii because its shite) is going to go into a slot on yout tv stand, or next to or under or ontop of your tv and might not be moved (mine isnt), does it really matter how big, slim or wide it is, btw, ps3 is slicker than the white 360's but the elite kicks any ps3's ass in shape and slickness.
As a PC man if i ever want to buy a console i would prefer PS3 because of principle. I absolutely refuse to pay every month for playing on the internet with others.
I never had to do it in the PC and am already paying my ISP for internet connection. NO am noty gone a give you money for something that is suppose to be free.
Microsoft even tried to make PC online(am not talking about MMORPGs) gaming a subscription thing. It's disgusting. Why should i pay you for something i se to do for free?
If i have to pay to play a football match with my friend through the internet then i prefer to do it on my PC or a console like PS3.
I don't care if people like the X-Box and want to play it's games but they should refuse to use it's online system to teach Microsoft a lesson.
PS3 trying to achieve bankai.
Kodansha wannabes.
ill stick with my atari 2600 slim
I shit bricks seeing this.
power bricks?
Wow, those TV ads are shit, what the fuck were they thinking.
I will stick with my Wii...
Hilarious, Xbox 360 Haters trying to make the PS3 actually worth buying.
PS3 is FAIL, PERIOD, call me when Sony actually makes a profit.
Sony not making a profit = me getting a superior product at a discounted price.
You and your Shitbox are FAIL, PERIOD. Sony would make a profit if they'd charge us 60$ for online play. But guess what? Yeah! We don't have to pay for online play!
wait what? you dont really have to pay on online play on PS3?
really? reply me back
and dont forget unlike the shitbox 360 the ps3 has a browser,which is also free. its funny how the 360 being a product of microsoft,yet it lacks a browser
Your fiance is such a lucky guy for having a wonderful and understanding wife/husband-to-be.
Of course you dont have to pay for using the online mode on a PS3..
Yes, online mode for PS3 is FREE. As long as you have an internet connection you can use it and play online.
Seriously, you have to buy SO much more for your Xbox to match what the PS3 comes with and it ends up costing you more than it would have to buy a PS3 to begin with. My fiance works at Gamestop and he has all the consoles and I know how much he has spent on each one and his Xbox 360 definitely cost the most. -___-;
I just have this slight feeling that Xbox Live is gonna be a little less crowded (if it was to begin with.)
it was and still is...of little 6 year olds on halo
The 360 symbol in the top left looks like someone cut a x shape in a potato, then took a picture of it.
more like an orange
it's supposed to be a shiitake
PS3 rules! and Sony.
Shit!!! the old man kick's some gamers but XD
*bites lip* "f-" (head explodes)
harsh.
just because of this pic, ill buy a ps3
if i buy ps3, im a gay(saw the first pic!)
Where's the dude's shirt? and underwear for that matter...
Down below in one of the circles obviously.
This only demonstrates the truth ...
PS3 Slim target demographics are women and gays ...
I lol'ed.
Also, these Photoshoppers have way too much time on their hands...
maybe better then xbox with targeting rapist's and lolicons
proof?
at least we all can see the truth behind ps3
At least he has his pants on.
barely...
.....
still looking like a fool

こころは、もっと動く
Mind is moving more
maybe if you would have one in the first place....
Lawlz at the RROD on the Xbox360 one.
Yea! Free gifts of RRoD (Red Ring of Death) with every XBox lol. Courtesy of MS which its customers CANNOT refuse to receive XD
hmm i will buy a ps3 slim now, even though i have like two freaking xbox 360s, yes im an idiot.
I have 3 360s and a second PS3 on the way. You should get a PS3 too, it is a really nice console.
Why do so many people have multiple Xbox 360s? You see people posting everywhere saying they have two or three of them. What's the point? Is it as a backup for when they break or is there another reason?
It does go a long way to explaining the Xbox 360 sales since it seems every Xbox 360 owner has at least two.
Well they are cheap and you can play games in system link which is awesome. there's probally other reasons too why should you have more then one Xbox 360 ;)
His crotch ?
His PC wins the match.
"I'll raise you a Wii" so sent my mind to the obvious place.
or the owner just liked the first one so much they decided to buy another. if i can apply this logic to me buying icypoles, then i can apply it to almost anything
the reason for that is because they either fail at life or got red ringed too much
...and I'll raise you a Wii :D
my PC wins the match.
So it works also as an umbrella, brilliant !
Them people was on crack when that commercial aired
yes they look like they're on crack, lol my moustache looks like that first guy in the video.
Why can't console fags set their differences aside? And appreciate GAMES instead..
This, is, SPARTA!!!
360 Design>any PS3...
the 360 with it's curves is still the most sexy console there is. I really don't want any Design Changes at all.
Sony should get better designers for their consoles. The PS2 already looked like a pile of shit, PS3 was even worse.
and no, fanbois. I'm not saying that the PS3 is shit, just it's Design. The console is still awesome for its 4 great exclusives it has (MGS4, GT, God of War, Killzone).
you know that the 360's desing is the same as the old modles of dell computers(the ones you see in school) right?
umm... since i'm not american, i have no idea what you're talkin about D8
I don't have any of the new Gens, but I agree about 360. It has an attractive design.
When I first saw the PS3, I was thinking of a mini grill. And I am still disappointed that Sony didn't change the Spider Man font for it.
they did they changed it back to the font of the ps2
If all you're basing your preference on is curves then you need to take another look at the PS3, it has more curves and is more complex looking (even though it looks like a grill) than the 360, which is basically a rectangular box that is curved and slightly pinched at one end. Plus the PS3 has a glossy black finish (unfortunately the ps3 slim goes with matte) which is undoubtedly sexier than a matte white/grey finish. Top it off with those touch sensitive buttons and the disc slot similar to the Wii. The Wii is sexier than the 360. But my vote goes to the PS3 since it's black.
i forgot something.
The Wii. It has a certain old-school touch because its just a box without any curves at all. That's what bugs me. xD
PS3>Wii... wii is just too simple, i don't know.
I guess personal preferences are still personal preferences :P
my problem with the PS3 design is, that it is just too bulky, it looks like a fat girl.
The 360's design looks like its made after a girl with a slim hip. I really love to look at stuff like that. o.o
Tho, the shiny black paint looks good, even tho you see fingerprints easily on it. :/
Thats why i said, that the 360 really doesnt need a new "slim" design. It looks good as it is. :3
Who is sitting there staring at the console? Who cares?
I don't know if you have a car, and if you have one, then i don't know if you are into tuning.
I dont just "drive" my car, i want it to look sexy. That goes for everything i buy. I'm a casemodder as well, i dont have that usuall average looking PC case as well. My 360 is a bit modded too. The PS3 just doesnt appeal to me, sadly. :/
I hope the next PS will have PS3 emulation and i hope it wont look like shit. Till then, i'll play the exclusives i want at my friends place. lol D:
Yeah, i know. I'm weird. :D
Sony needs to rethink it's advertising campaign. If anything it makes me want to not buy a ps3.
I hate these commercials!
The definition of the term "slim" has changed nowadays, huh.
Those ads were pretty...interesting. You could basically put any other product advertisement in it, and I think it would work. But I like a good facial expression any day of the week.
My Mom got a PS3, and I finally got to play it. I was so pissed when I learned that it wasn't backwards compatible. RAGE. Are all of them like that?
the new 80 gigs are but they gonna patch that soon and add it later so dont worry your cute little ass about it
PS3 that cannot be chipped = it sucks, so no thanks!
I actually think its not that bad of a add, I've no doubt made all of those faces one point or a another playing various games lol. Its kinda of a nice thing when a game is good enough that you immerse yourself enough into it to get those kinda emotions going imo. Oh, and probably has something to do with the new facial recognition software they're working on with the eyetoy.
That advertisement was fucking POINTLESS. I don't understand how that shows anything about the PS3 at all besides people have an orgasm while playing.
Also, the fanboyism here fucking pisses the shit out of me. I have a 360, but it doesn't mean the PS3 completely sucks. I would like to get a PS3 in the future, since the only reason why I got a Xbox was for Tales of Vesperia and Fable 2. Plus it was more affordable at the time than a PS3.
LOLBOX360....
The only thing I shall complain about is the model in the picture.
Too skinny + No real muscle = Not appealing.
That's the point, retard.
ps3 SLIM, get it?
