A couple of days back I poked fun at the French BLUR advert for attempting to use sex to sell the game and for forgetting to turn on the controllers for the models in the advert.

Oh, how I love the Kevin Butler Sony adverts. Today we have something very special for you, Kevin Butler in really tight orange pants, with other manly, inspiring things too.

Well Activision have decided they aren’t taking that lying down and have hit back at themselves to show how …
Now this is some hilarious advertising, if not a touch creepy. This new video advertisement for Serious Sam HD has been done in the style of one of those terrible infomercials that you would see on TV courtesy of companies like Verimark. They boast that the game runs at 6005 polygons per krundle, has been injected with Digital Awesome and …
If there is anything that can be said about Sony’s Playstation 3 adverts up till now, it’s that most of the were just plain strange, but not exactly in a good way. Times have changed it seems as the new advert for the PS3 Slim pricing doesn’t involve strange babies and odd statues holding controllers but actually utilises an old …
Have you ever double-checked your doors at night because something just didn’t feel secure? …
