that is the single coolest thing I have ever seen in my life, I am going to spend all night learning that routine. well you said odd so I think this http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=wv7I0BQCIm0 one of the original PS2 adverts made by david lynch and adaptation of the famous Tim Hope viral video of the late 90s. amazingly it never actually even mentions Sony or the PS2 |
Paperboy  Posts: 22 Joined: 24 Jul 2008 | Oh, how about this one? It's not really advertising a video game directly, but it's still pretty horrible. |

Come on, people. We're not even to the third page yet, and we've already had the same video posted three times. Try actually reading the thread first. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 59 Joined: 9 Feb 2008  | Its not a bad advert but does anyone remember the Ocarina of Time ads? Looks fine until it says 'are you going to get the girl, or be a girl'. Way to alienate half the worlds population Nintendo. Can't find any videos of it though. |

I understand why they pulled that one, but I love it, reminds me being a kid again. |
Paperboy  Posts: 13 Joined: 16 Feb 2008 | http://youtube.com/watch?v=mhBEZMe_1i0&feature=related Or at least, the opening to this 8-minute promotional video for the Sega CD, which strikes me as something the director of Pink Floyd's The Wall might have made while really, really desperate for cash. 0:44-1:34 = ????????? On a similar note, http://youtube.com/watch?v=jypqNSZMgnM (Warning: second one may induce seizures. Honestly, it must have caused damage to somebody during the decade-and-a-half since the lobotomized chimpanzees that obviously comprised Sega's marketing team produced this monstrosity- I mean, look at it, for christ's sake) (Edit: Sorry, but this deserves a mention too. Any further comments on it would be redundant) http://youtube.com/watch?v=2k6HjN-_-9g What. |

Wahey, Grimsby FTW. I remember that advert (and being freaked out by it), yet I didn't realise my home town was mentioned until now. |
