Don't Playstation know how to advertise, lets put a duck, a man with a hand sticking out of his mouth, a mummy and basically the biggest pile of crap i've ever watched.

In America it was no difference, The playstation 9 demo now i'm starting to think maybe nintendo aren't that bad at advertising.

Secondly the PS3 well done sony you have just caused the possible downfall of the PS2 and now people are thinking maybe the PS9 isn't such a joke.

Thirdly can you please do something origonal. I'll bet the PS3 will have the same controller as always as well as the same games. What i admire in Sega and Nintendo is the way they make a completley new experience each time they bring out a new console largly thanks to knew controll systems which create new and origonal games.

Also the Sega Megadrive 2 was a simple upgrade to the Megadrive while the Playstation 2 seems to be the same thing.

That advert was tacky, worst than a couple of kids throwing stones at a boy listening to Robbie Williams. :0)

Image the most bring french lesson ever- everyone silent with heads down do some translating. Then, from the back of the room, the class idiot does his best to imitate the sound of a woman shoved in a cupboard by the PR people from sony and having a gun to her heaed... as says:

"Playstation 2... the third place"

Originality at it's best!

Yeah, the advert was poor, but OH NO!!!

PS2 is NOT an update, it's a new console with new games and the new DVD player. Nuff said.

We don't get along too well now do we Ant but i was talking about the lack of origonality. New games are great and so are sequals but the games i played on the PS2 just seem like the same old PS games with upgraded graphics and the same controller and the great new name (can sony create anything without a number in it) doesn't seem enougth for me to buy the PS2 i'm happy with my PS and 64 and i'll get a Gamecube.

Hmmm, an excellent opportunity for you to get yourself a copy of MS Word - with a spell check.
Anyway, I haven't seen any PS2 adverts at all - other than a blue dot and the aforementioned business duck.

I sincerely hope Sega start producing some games for the PS2 soon (or just port the Dreamcast games on to it) because there only seems to be one title causing a positive stir, and that's SSX - not my favourite genre of game.

I can't help but think the PS2 is going the way of the Saturn in terms of 'not good enough games' but it can't fail.

Let's pray that Microsoft have something other than Munch world up their sleeve!

No wonder the Dreamcast never sold if it encouraged you to throw stones at little boys! :-p
