[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.
.....it's an advertisment.... are you taking this so seriously?mgkennedy5I wonder if he tried to jump into his 360 after watching an Xbox 360 commercial.
[QUOTE="ColdP1zza"]
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!I wonder if he tried to jump into his 360 after watching an Xbox 360 commercial.[QUOTE="mgkennedy5"].....it's an advertisment.... are you taking this so seriously?Rockman999
I did, and I barely got my foot in before the disc tray broke.
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.
the funniest part is how it actually does less than the previous 'gen' which did less than the launch consoles. what next ps3 extra slim with no blu-ray?
washd123
Why don't you explain what it's failing to provide?
Mines does Ha! but seriously all PS3's do have backwards compatibility.More like, does everything except backwards compatability:lol:
edwise18
LOL Oh no it will have a Blu-Ray drive..... with no Metal casing on it and the bare motherboard in the brown box with PS3 spraypainted on the box with a stencil!:lol: Just becarefull when changing the disk that its turned off or the laser will brand your forehead for life.:lol: TREY4LYFE!the funniest part is how it actually does less than the previous 'gen' which did less than the launch consoles. what next ps3 extra slim with no blu-ray?
washd123
no, it does backward compatability, it plays ps1 games, but i guess thats not bc?More like, does everything except backwards compatability:lol:

Im suprised that no one has brought back that old George Foreman grill PS3 pic with the new slogan on it. LOL can someone do this!:lol:

You got the ratio wrong8)
Great marketing campaign though. I mean jump in, and play b3yond were weak. Wii want to play was great. ya but in the "wii we want to play" all it was asian guys visiting soccer moms and their kids playing wii sports.[QUOTE="Arctic_Grillz"]Its called marketing your product.nhh18

No it actually does everything whats the point of this thread is it that you cant comprehend a simple commerical. Its meant to be funny not to be taken seriously.Anyone else think that advertisement for the PS3 is ridiculous? 99% (exageration) of the things on that list can be done by a 360.

On a different note my bro got the slim today i must say i am pretty jealous.
get one too so u can avoid the jealousy its not good to be jealous it is evil. lol ill try to see if i can trade in my 40 towards the slim. Your right though its not good to be jealous.[QUOTE="ColdP1zza"]

@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.
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.

I am sold! :D I buy another PS3 just for this!
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.
[QUOTE="themyth01"][QUOTE="sexxxyboy"]360 cant even do uncharted 2. someone link plzsexxxyboyps3 can't do Halo. Your point? killzone 2 killzowns haloSure it does. KZ2 is great and all but come back to earth. There is a reason not many play it much anymore.
[QUOTE="sexxxyboy"][QUOTE="themyth01"] ps3 can't do Halo. Your point?cainetao11killzone 2 killzowns haloSure it does. KZ2 is great and all but come back to earth. There is a reason not many play it much anymore. I cant lie i dont play KZ 2 anymore but i also havent touched Halo since October 2007 so KZ 2 is better IMO.
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 (:
Oh boy, you were doing well except for the last sentence.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.

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
its an ad, you dont expect a company trying to sell its products to say, 'hey look we have our Ps3 consoles at $299, its nothing special but buy it cause we got salaries to pay & bills to settle'
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.
