[QUOTE="Spartan070"]If you think an ad connecting the X1 to the NFL is a bad PR move you are delusional....ChuteboxEveryone who gets into fantasy football uses a PC or their phone. This will do shit. Fantasy Football? rofl....
[QUOTE="Spartan070"]If you think an ad connecting the X1 to the NFL is a bad PR move you are delusional....ChuteboxEveryone who gets into fantasy football uses a PC or their phone. This will do shit. Lol. The Xbox brand and football are extremely popular. Even if you have no idea what the xbox one is this commercial will catch NFL and XBOX fans attention. Now in an entire day of football I have not seen this commercial on TV, I think that's where MS is screwing up
Average Joe consumers will see this and go "PS4 and X1 are the next game consoles...but the X1 also does other things, cool." Not how us at SW will look at it but its how average joe will look at it. Spartan070They'll also go "oh the same stuff for $100 bucks less" and that's basically how most console wars have been won.
Looks good to me. I think i will go pre-order another xbox one. If sony did this, you guys wouldnt shut up about it. Fact.Â

Not popular enough to make someone spend 500 bucks on the system then subscribe to xbl just to be able to do fantasy football though. Xbox fans already know about the xbox one though, so there is no point to that. Not to mention current xbox fans are fans because they game on the xbox.

Nowhere in the commercial does it say it's $500 + an XBL subscription.. Perfect marketing.. deal with it..ÂWhat would a PS4 commercial show? Killzone and Driveclub? :lol: That won't sell consoles son. They might be great games but that commercial won't sell crapÂ

Probably no games in this commercial because it was promoting the NFL portion of the X1. Just a guess.FoxbatAlpha
Whoa man. Youre not allowed to use your brain around here man. Â That commercial made its debut during the broncos/ravens game. It would have made a ton more sense to show some clips of killer instinct and ryse to people that are watching football.Â

Spartan070Nah they will go "PS4 for the game, X1 for the NFL", and the X1 will get fvcked everywhere else outside of America.

Or maybe Madden. I mean, there's the slam dunk.[QUOTE="Spartan070"]Average Joe consumers will see this and go "PS4 and X1 are the next game consoles...but the X1 also does other things, cool."

Actually, to track fantasy, they just use their phone. Xbox One is solving problems nobody has and Apple answered years ago. Spend 500 bucks to track fantasy on your TV, or do it with the Widgets your TV has built into it or on your iPhone which is what you've done for the past 2-3 years...
What the ad didn't do is show why Xbox One makes watching football better than it is now. Instead it's just saying "oh yeah, you can track Fantasy* (*NFL.COM LEAGUES ONLY) and Skype with your "friends" while watching the game! $500! THIS IS NEXT GEN TRUST US IT REALLY IS EVEN THOUGH YOUR PHONE DOES IT BETTER"
GENIUS.
No one here needs an ad to tell them anything about any console. We're all core gamers who have known how we felt months ago.
This ad is for other people, not really interested in a purely core gaming experience. Hence why it focuses on another aspect of this Video Game console.
xbone is clearly targeting the TV audience as a major part of its business. They are only showing enough games to keep the gamers interested.nutcrackrHardly true, and you'll see with the playstation (in fact we already have) that the TV/media side of the PS4 is important as well.
Why do you think Sony dedicated so much of their E3 to social features, TV, moves etc?
:lol:

Yeah, and how many Non gamers watched that?
This forum is full of little moaning girls.
It's like you morons don't know the perpous of advertisements. Why invest all that money in ads to only appeal to the basement dwellers who have already made up their small minds? Everyone here has made up their mind, or are at a point where an ad isn't going to change it.
We have already seen all the unique exclusives, and know all the games that will be available, so why show invest money to show them again on national/international TV?
