The first PlayStation 3 TV spot for Spain will be aired today the during break of the Real Madrid vs. Barça match [for you out there in America, this game is pretty much like the Spanish Superbowl]. They ran ads in some newspapers that go "Enjoy the break, discover PlayStation 3." Wonder if they'll show the shitty spot from thisisliving.tv or a different one.

I've just seen the ad on tv. Same one featured in thisisliving.tv
Sucky tv commercials FTL
edit: they also aired another one for Formula 1. It features Fernando Alonso flipping in the air as the Sixaxis moves.

I just saw the commercial on MTV Nordic or whatever that crap channel is called. It was the Russian dude in a tub with a handgun, the girl jumping on the bed and some girl sitting in a guys lap talking about "this is living" and game experiences obviously. After that PlayStation 3 Production came up, with the date 23.03.07.. I jizzed.

Is game commercials even allowed on TV4 since they broadcast from Sweden? I think there's a law prohibiting commercials directed towards children. And most probably see game related stuff as directed towards children. I cant remember seeing any game commercials on TV4, have you seen any?
TV3, TV6, Kanal 5 air a lot of 360 commercials, but they broadcast from the UK.
I'm still undecided whether to get a PS3 at launch here or wait untill Christmas when lots more AAA titles are out and mayvbe a price drop, these are the only times I can really afford to get a new system unless I save up and cut back on games for other systems, Resistance and Motorstorm at launch are really swaying me though.. any suggestions?

Just buy it, so that you're able to concentrate on games later on. VF5, Motor Storm, Calling All Cars, Resistance and Warhawk say you should buy it asapCedeo said:

Formula 1 Championship Edition / SIXAXIS commercial (Spain):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbXFnjTZWHk | At least it's better than the paneuropean spot...
BTW here stores have started receiving their PS3 allocations. Normally they'd sell stuff early but SCE will cut the balls to whoever dares to the sell PS3s before March, 23rd @ 00:00. So there you have thousands of Sony fanboys ripping off their arms thinking they can't get ahold of their PS3's even though their systems are in the store just around the corner. Ah, the irony!
Coming up next: banks opening at 00:00 on launch day (or, well, night) to hand PS3's to new clients who signed up for a special offer (what they wouldn't do to attract new customers).
So this is Sonyland after all.

Hurray!! Final Fantasy X-2 isn't playable \o/

Well, I somehow managed to get my hands on a test PAL PS3 and if that happens to be the console they tested BC with ... Yeah, doesn't seem to work at all. But then again - so doesn't music, photo and movie (of any kind, blu-ray included) playback. You can only create an account, change the settings, register on PSN and play (copied) games.
Speaking of these test PAL PS3s (mine actually has 'test' written below the 'playstation 3' text on one side of the console) ... Since I suppose that all the hardware components are present inside - do you think a firmware update would turn it into a retail unit? Or should I be worried about the update screwing something?

It wouldn't be a test machine, I have seen retail pal ps3 systems in stores for demo units, with the right pal serials. JB hifi and some EBs have these pal systems on display, they only got them a few days ago, they've had BC results as above. We'll have to wait till the 23rd as I suspect the firmware shipped on pal units is early and the launch firmware on psn will probably be better in BC compatibility. So anyone serious about BC, get ready to connect your ps3 to psn on launch day.
Ceb said:Thanks to Forsete and Midas for reminding me of/recommending VG+. Ordered some games on Friday, got them in the mail today. Kickass site!
Yeah, they're nice. Altough my copy of VF5 was a bit weird. The plastic on the front of the case was melted. I would guess that it happend during the process of shrink wraping it with the French manual.
I'm gonna order Motorstorm and Resistance as soon as online in Europe is confirmed.

JB hifi in Melbourne CBD?
I was there yesterday/Monday and saw the huge set up. I was blown away!
The image so so crisp and clean, it was unlike anything I've ever seen before.
Right there and then I decided that this was the next-gen machine for me and pre ordered. Well actually, i preordered a few week ago but seeing the PS3 in person just made the wait all the more unbearable.
The Console itself and the images it was producing were just stunningly beautiful.

iF you're referring to me. the JB hifi in the City, Lonsdale st.
They also have a playable demo at Myer Londale st, although the tv they have hooked up isn't as impressive as the one at JB.
