Anyone seen it yet? It was on Sky One between Buffy and The Simpsons - somewhere around 7pm.

It's an advert for the new 'limited edition' PS2 & GT3 pack.

There are clips of the racing (as you'd expect) but then it switches to the external view, and the car pulls over to side of the road and stops at a very scenic point.

The other cars fly past, and then it all goes quiet, except for birds chirping...

Then it comes up with something like 'in GT3 it isn't only the cars that look good'.

Very amusing - well done Sony!

I hope so. I'll be surprised if there aren't.

I saw it earlier in the week. I did read that Sony wanted to concentrate more on advertising games, than the obscure Third Place ads. Thank goodness they've come to their senses....

Agreed - the machine itself hardly needs advertising, does it?!

sounds like a very cool advert

The console itself didn't get alot of advertising, in the David Lynch advert, I initially thought they were advertising talking ducks with sore throats.

I saw the other gt3 ad at the cinema last week, I am now determined to get a video projector and play gt3 projected onto my neighbours house.

Mind you, I'd buy a talking duck.
