They're doing a graffiti ad for PS2, is what the commercial I saw last night said.

I'll watch to laugh at corporate vipers doing horrible graffiti more than I will for the video game connection.
 
I totally forgot about tonight's "Apprentice." Thanx for the reminder.

Plus, the preview last week (the tagging/spray painting) was about a video game promotion?

Oh God, you have no fucking idea. I hated how they kept calling it "Playstation" as if it were an indepedent company that has its own publicly traded IPO. "PlayStation made 6 billion in revenue last year"...no motherfucker, Sony made 6B from the PlayStation brand. PS is a brand, not a company. WTF...seriously.

Things to get bent out of shape over...
-The number of victims of the Tsunami
-Prolonged war in Iraq
-Millions of abortions each year
-People mistaking a brand for a company

Whats with you?
 
At least the person that should have been fired was.

She was taking credit for the whole thing, saying that she would be best at it cause she knows tha streetz, and then it lost and she was all "WHAT? GT4 takes place in more places than urban New York? Why din' anyone tell me?" God forbid she do an iota of research the product that she was in charge of marketing.

Although, actually, I liked her team's ad better than the other team's. They were both bad, and obviously had no idea that it's a serious racer, rather than a rice rocket byproduct. I know it was reaching for an urban audience, but you can still apply an urban style without ghettoing up the subject matter.

"No faith in humanity" moment: The team that won brought over a group of kids off the street to help give them ideas on what to include, and predictably, they said "yo have money fallin from the sky". They put in a fist clenching money with a big gold knuckle ring saying 'PS2', and it went over well with the focus group.
 
Checked out the episode, thought both of the graffiti looked like dog vomit. And yeah, I agree with AlphaSnake, I got annoyed with those "PlayStation" entity references.

Is this thread about, the tsunami? No. Is this thread about Iraq? No. Is this thread about Abortion? No. I think there's a trend here, and it's clearly pointing to a billboard that says "shut the fuck up".

Fixed
 
Jesus Christ, in that scene in the Sony conference room, John and Audrey were telling her that GT4 has more than just urban areas. And she has the gall to say that nobody told her?! Man, if that arrogant fuckup didn't get fired I was going to be pissed.
 
Damn I'm gonna have to catch the rerun on CNBC. Anyone know when they show 'em.. Normally I fucking hate the apprentice, but videogames???

Too bad they weren't campaigning for Super Monkey Ball Deluxe. I'd like to see them compete with Chad.
