I saw the Sly 2 advert about a week ago. The game looks good, but that's one of the worst gaming commericals I have seen in a long time. It had a decidedly 'clean is better than dirty' feel, if you know what I mean.

Was this the commerical where Sly and company are talking about being framed for a crime and needing our help??? If so, then I personally loved that commercial.
I thought it was better then the first Sly 1 commerical which featured a pair of detectives investigating a crime scene, and later a racoon escaping through an opening in the wall... Oh well, we all have different taste...
it's not like the first one was a huge hit right off the bat...it had poor initial sales. It got to its current number through month after month of good greatest hits sales.
They might overdo it a bit, but they seem to be the #1 TV advertising publisher, even ahead of EA (except on ESPN where EA owns). Just about every big game has had significant commercial airtime (GT3, Twisted Metal: Black, Jak & Daxter, Ratchet & Clank, SOCOM, Sly, Getaway, Rise To Honor, Syphon Filter, various 989 sports).
Of course, I only watch certain channels, so maybe I'm missing the other guys outlets.
