Wahhhoooooo


who ever is running Microflops PR should be shot (or given a Medal from Sony)...i mean

First the piss poor sales in Japan and Europe :laughing:

then the release of that book that exposed MS Japanese plans as operation MIDWAY :laughing:.

and now they have alienated themself from the General Public in the UK by cutting the price ofthe console

[size=8]5 weeks[/size]

after launch

and now they are offending them through the adverts

LMAO @ M$ adverts because they ar hardly on the TV anymore

:laughing:


me starts to think that there is a Sony or Nintendo Spy in the M$ PR  camp ;)

I thought it was just harmless fun. But no, it was offensive to fat people, so had to go down. :rolleyes:

Honestly, I thought the commercial was good... :confused:
Sony had some really good ones (from Japan) I think... wish they would bring\'em over here and get rid of those lame ones in europe. :(

mmh, don\'t recall that one... but I do recall the Jak & Daxter one.. where an idiot wonders through a traffic jam dressed as Robin Hood or something..

I love the view other ones with the "third place" logo... like the one with a deer that gets run over by a jeep - but instead of the small deer dying, the car gets all smashed up. LOL, I think IGN had them up once... :D

Thats sad that our world can come to this.  Everything is officially offensive to some one now.

I could see how it could be offensive to some people, but if it is for them just change the channel/mute it/or ignore it.

Also I haven\'t been seeing alot of PS2 commercials lately, maybe because of my location (Alaska), dunno, have you guys seen any new PS2 commercials?

The only commericial that really bothers me are those "and here you are... grounded cuz you smoked weed, and your parents found out.  Smoke weed, and lose your parents trust."

The thing is, it just is insensitave that it happened to people (me).  And when you start to think that its put behind you, you see the commercial and the parents look at you and give you a dirty look.

****s me over. :(

The baby is being born and sent straight to the grave so sudden infant death syndrome people aren\'t happy because they find it offensive.  IMO they should get a life.

I havent seen the commercial but it sounds disgusting and repulsive.

Most of the x box commericals have used bodily harm, or words like \'screw\'

I\'m glad they pulled the commercial

The ad is funny. We\'re all too hyper sensitive. You can probably take any freaking ad and find something that could upset you ( you in the general sense of the word).
