THIS is the kind of marketing the PS3 needs

I don't care if that chick was carrying the fountain of youth, something that anime-ized is just wrong.

Agreed

Not to mention the fact that Microsoft using those advertisement tactics is just downright dirty.

I hope this is sarcasm.The PS3 has sold more consoles in Japan and is still selling more consoles.So they are doing something right.Also it's pathetic that MS has to resort to promoting multi plat games (because they are out of exclusives) to sell their system.If having 90% of the JRPs this gen exclusive is not selling their console,then this certainly will fail harder.

[Erik]

Yes it is sarcasm. But guys have a little fun. I do wonder what the ps3 version of that anime chick would be. I just think it was a neat idea..

The PS3 is selling more consoles than Microsoft because PS3 is way better than the 360.

the issue is not whether or not the xbox360 is better than the ps3, rather whether or not the xbox360 delivers more value per dollar than the ps3

[Erik]

And for that I say the PS3 delivers far more value.

For the main pic with Xbox advertising, people already pointed out Japs hate 360 lol but watching what anime i have watched, not much, there are so many things off with it. Its just too western haha.

But SaintAvy damn! HOTNESS lol, sony wins hands down. Kinda makes me want to know what EIN is hiding from us haha.

[m0tl3sl4y3r]

I'll admit, 360 is cheaper, but u have to pay for the online, which will probably end up costing more in the longrun

but I guess it's up to the person playing

Nah ive seriously, like went to the store with money in hand walking straight to the 360 aisle serious, looked at buying a 360. Sure if you want a casual gamers console its cheap but after putting together all the stuff i needed, and what comes out of the box with a PS3, i was over the price of PS3 by like 50 or 60 bucks and said screw it. Still needed a game too.

I understand two things from doing it though. 1 Microsoft plan works and it works well. Its not cheaper but it is not one pay load of money at once so people are willing to give it a try and build up from there. 2 PS3 is cheaper and it offers alot more bang out of the box and i can understand why Sony is having a hard time dropping the price, if 360 was built complete out of the box too MS would have the same issues. Thing is we are in a "recession" and the government has everyone scared about taking risks, therefore they dont want to cash out 400 bucks at one time for one product.

I agree with u 100%, people bon't want to spen that much on 1 product, thats why people buy the 360

marketing 101 for ya

[InfiniteNine]

Usually humanized product "tan" mascots are created by fans, and one in fact already exists for the 360. I just find this strange.
