I saw "The Getaway" advert (PS2)(U.K)or the first time today, it showed decent amounts of game footage, and definitely gave it good atmosphere. Infact, it could be the best computer game advert I've seen in ages. What are your favourite computer GAME tv adverts, no console ones though.

Anyone who says the ocarina of time advert shall be shot by Insane Bartender.

I dont know about my favourite game advert but the whacked out PS2 ones are generally pretty good. I recon the Getaway one was pretty good but the graphics shown looked really gritty. The first thing I said when I saw the advert was 'what crappy graphics' but, yea, gaming is not about graphics etc etc!

Whats the worst advert? Prob the Metroid Fusion one for the GBA, I recon. Even the CGI is pretty lame but when the GBA screens kick in just before the advert finishes, that just takes the p*ss!

The Mario Advance 3 advert
"Thanks Yoshi"
Plus, you can't always rely on advertising, take Metroid Fusion as an example
