Rockstar using graffiti ads for The Warriors?

The Warriors graffiti ad? - Image 1


Okay, first off, it's either Rockstar is pulling off a Sony advertising boo-boo OR one fanboy decided to do it for them. Yes boys and girls, what you're seeing above is a graffiti ad (if we could still call it that) for The Warriors spotted by PSPFanboy's Andrew Yoon whilst walking along downtown New York.

If you could still remember back in January last year, graffiti ads were found all over the walls of various U.S. cities (and even Amsterdam) to promote the PSP - much to the dismay of locals who got irate upon seeing the ads. During that whole fiasco, there was the issue of whether Sony really was responsible for the ads popping up or whether they were just mere "fandalisms" that the company wasn't aware of.

Same thing applies here. Although Rockstar isn't exactly the type of company to worry over such things (hello, GTA lawsuits?), the fact that the company's office is located in NYC could fan the possible flames they might get from such sightings. But whether this is the company's doing or just some random fanboy vandalizing the streets of NY for kicks, no one knows for sure. One thing you could say though, Rockstar couldn't get any more 'street' than this. Harhar.

..and I see the spread of exaggerative controversial issues here plaguing the psp community with propaganda.
did you guys really have to make a big deal out of this? it could have just been.. "The Warriors graffit ad spotted!".. I'm sure there would be more respectful comments.. and better yet more attractive.
