"New PS2 ad just on C4"

There's just been a cool PS2 advert on C4.

It's supposedly interactive and allows you to 'choose' fro mfootage of 3 games - GT3, Onimusha and Red Faction.

A series of 'votes' are counted, and - this time - GT3 won. Presumably they have another two to cover the other games.

Nice one Sony!

This has nothing to do with the ad. But I thought it was a little strange that in my stats it said I had made 360 posts, only having become a regular on friday. But now it has gone back to what it should be - 323.

I was talking about BBC1 and BBC2.

But anyway a new version of the ad has just been on Sky One and involves Red Faction (I think), F1 2001, and Extermination - which is the "winner" this time.

Channel 4 and C4 definitely have adverts on them. Otherwise you wouldn`t have been able to see the GT3 ad.

Or maybe it's because those channels don't have adverts on them. :-)

I haven`t seen it advertised at anytime on BBC 1 or BBC 2. That`s very strange. Maybe they think nobody watches those channels. :-]

I saw it on E4, if that counts...

Seems to be on during Big Brother, so maybe they're going for a known large audience.

Haven't really watched much else on TV, so I don't know where else it's appeared, if anywhere.

It's 'which title would you like to see footage of', so they only need to change the voice-over and the footage.

It's supposed to be 'interactive', so it wouldn't be too unrealistic if it changed - it'd just come across as 'we've seen GT3 27 times, let's choose something else this time'.

I reckon, anyway!

If so, then wouldn`t they have to change the theme of the advert? I mean, if they choose Red Faction as the most wanted or anticipated, over GT3, then it would appear unrealistic. They`ll have to think of another competition involving the same 3 games, but with a different winner, e.g. most revolutionary title: Red Faction, most sword swishy title: Onismusha etc...

Has anyone seen this ad on any other channel apart from C4?
Every time I've seen it, it has been on 4.

Anyway, good ad.

COOL AD SONY
