[QUOTE="-DrRobotnik-"]My 360 worked flawlessly for 2 and a half years :| Seriously getting old these RROD bashingsUptown

It'll never get old. The Xbox 360 is a design disaster...and it deserves to be drilled to the end so that Microsoft does not make this mistake with their next console.

It'll continue well into the next gen. Y'know, that guy looks just like how I imagin 50% of cows look.

I can think of a few things off the bat that my PS3 can do that the 360 cant. 1) Web Browse. 2) Blu-Ray. 3) Function for more than 6 months

Uptown

My 360 has been functioning for long over 6 months, RROD isn't as common of an occurence anymore. Also, you can web browse on the 360, look it up.

Anyone else think that advertisement for the PS3 is ridiculous? 99% of the things on that list can be done by a 360. Even the Wii does half of those. Blueray and bluetooth pretty much are the only things PS3 does and 360 doesn't, but the 360 comes with a free mic. What do you guys think?

Does the 360 do Wi-fi out of the box? No. Can the 360 charge the controller battery out of the box? No. Does the 360 have free online gaming? No. Can the 360 play a hi-def movie format out of the box? No. Xbox 360- It almost does nothing, Red rings of death included out of the box :lol:

lol nice!

It does offer more features for no extra fee.

It comes with free online.

Free wifi.

Bluray player.

Blutooth.

Sony would be stupid not to advertise based on this.

Maybe they should wait until the wands come out and use the slogan then. For the ps3 slim they could just use the play b3yond thing like before then show some GAMES instead of a bunch of exagerated features. Then again, marketing has never been the best of Sony. The last good ad they made is the "299 reasons to buy a ps2" one at it's launch (IMO), the 299th reason being it's price.

Truth is... it kind of does. Free online, web surfing, you can print and download from the PS3 even, get movies, t.v. shows, play games, watch HD movies both digital and blu-ray format... all basically for free (excluding purchase of content like movies/tv shows/etc)

TheArmyGuy48

@TheArmyGuy48No you phail because that's not even half the advertisement. You failed to mention themes, voice chat, text chat, multiplayer, in game xmb, 1080p, parental controls, game add-ons, games, dvds, free demos, exclusives, trophies (which are the same as achievements), streaming, video chat, harddrive, slideshows, and much more. It actually works out to around 85-90% or so, not 33%. And I said I was exagerating with the 99% and by 99% I meant pretty much everything.

i don't know why i'm even bothering but..... - fanboys are effing children...-

This is the current Ad Campaign

This was the launch Ad Campaign

yeah.... wonder what the general public is gonna get quicker. a price drop on the Playstation 3 (with the different ads highlighting the various abilities of the PS3). Or a crying plastic baby standing next to the PS3, or an exploding rubix cube.

plus i was looking at the part where it flips through the "It Only Does Everything" set. and i read.

  1. Family Games
  2. Photos
  3. Free Demos
  4. Wi Fi
  5. Music
  6. Online
  7. Blu-Ray
  8. Parties
  9. Action
  10. Adventure
  11. Games

I mean how is that no true? I mean out of that whole list hte only thing the 360 can't do starts with the word Blu, can't do internet either.

You wanna call it arrogant. fine. would of you rather had the PS3 commercial be a long winded explanation of what it CANNOT do?

please.

*shakes heads*

It's a good ad, they're funny, they're approachable, they're making it appealing to the general public. the tag line "It Only Does Everything" is a great tagline, it is a confident slogan for the Playstation 3.

and i mean 360 even has their own similari 'multi-media' commercial.

Here

so 360 fanboys (who don't know that i too own a 360) go ahead and blast me. but this whole thing is stupid. Sony finally makes a good ad campaign, and the next thing a fanboy somewhere on the internet starts to find a reason to not like it.

hardcore fanboys, the bottom of the barrel when it comes to the gaming community as far as i'm concerend.

Why do people freakin care!? Its just an ad, and if you've been outside at all in your whole life you must've seen lots of ads and billboards, and they're just NOISE. You're not supposed to believe 100% of it all the time.

For example, I'm a ps3 fanboy and I honestly don't give a damn about an ad thats advertising something I already own. Not the slim, but yeah you get the point.

Guys lets face it there is nothng on any console that the Ps3 can't do. Motion controller got that and a new one coming soon. Blu-ray got that OWNED HD-DVD. free wifi ot that. internet got that. tv shows movies got that. free online thats actually good for what it is got that. quality games got that. internet got that. music PLUS vidzone (can't wait till it comes to NA) got that. everything you would want it has. in fct i would say the Ps3 could create its own genre of entertainment. to me it is just in another league compared to the other systems. o yea there is one thing the ps3 can't do break 54% of the time (:

First when does every system have to play Halo??? And the Ps3 can do custom soundtracks if you are talking about music. But can only play music in a few games because Micro$oft has rights to that. Just to name the ones I have that play music Killzone 2 and Warhawk. And the Ps3 can do netflix lol its been doing it since the start. Because it has a Web Browser plus we can do facebook twitter and all tat other stuff we have. All we don't have IS cross-game chat but Sony could have put it in the update but they are having some trouble with 3rd party developers puttig it in some games. So cross-game chat is all the 360 can do tat the ps3 can;t o yea 360 can alos do a 54% failure rate lulz

If it wasn't for Halo and the fact that I like the Xbox 360 controller just a little bit more, I would pretty much already be set on getting a PS3.

Not getting to technical with it, I think these new ads are def. some, if not the best of this generation. Humorous, sleek, and informative.
