This recent Sony PSP print ad is far from controversial compared to that Sony Computer Entertainment Europe ad we reported a few months back. This one, created by Sil Malaysia from Kuala Lumpur, shows how to do sign language with your feet instead of using your hand. The print commercial may seem weird, c'mon what kind of physically normal human being would actually do sign language with their feet right? Maybe someone who just do it for kicks or has a lot of time in their hands or feet... Confused about what this PSP ad is trying to put across? |

F1R57 P057!!!
can anyone actually do that with thier feet?
My toes seem to be controleld as one :(
that's the gayest ad i've ever seen. Sony should just stop trying to advertise the psp.
Sony should just advertise that the PSP can run PS1 games and see what consumers do
f*ced up piece of baloney. [ad]
Any ad that requires an explanation is a terrible ad.
great ad! makes me think of actualy doing it :)

Horrible advertisement. Major 'wtf'.
Every single PSP ad I have seen sucks. The *****a squirrels, the europe scandal, others scandals in the subway, and now this.
Maybe they should have stickied with "Live in your world, play in ours."
I think it is creative advertising. I mean, what is gonna get more peoples attention? "Live in your world, play in ours" on a black background, or a bunch of feet up on a wall.
It's creative, but whoever came up with this should have drawn somebody attached to the feet, playing the PSP. It's too abstract. My first thought was "Sony wants me to build dexterity in my feet so I can play my PSP with them?". I'm sorry but whoever is in charge of Sony advertisements seriously needs to get fired, though this ad is oodles better than the Romeo + Juliet, Dustball, Squirrels, and White PSP ads.
I could do the Y with my feet
pretty sure it means your hands are gonna be busy...with your psp.
any ad that makes you stop and think is a good ad.
gayest ad ever
Good luck communicating like that.
The ad means that you are playing psp so your feet are the only things free.
(If you didn't read the article)
This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen! Boo to Sony for making my PSP hide itself from shame!
Whoever is in charge of making the ads and commercials ay Sony should just die.
It's not good, but it's not bad either. You can tell what Sony is trying to address with the ad and shows how busy you'll be playing PSP. But, it is not adressing what the PSP does for thoes people who don't know. I don't know if there is a language for comunicating with your feat, but if there isn't, it's creatvie for the person doing this. I know Sony can think of something better.
well i think its dumb. i guess it makes sense but it needs some kinda phrase like "youre hands will be to busy" under it
The idea itself is OK, and actually kinda interesting, but the ad itself sucks. I mean, I looked at it and thought "Is this one of those funny joke sign things?". I agree with #6, please make them understandable. A lot of the PSP ads take a few seconds to figure them out, which is bad.
And honestly, if I had to learn sign language with my feet to use a PSP, I would want to buy one. XD
(Look at the picture for "D" --- Looks like the foot's flicking you off lol)
Now, if it's female feet, then I might be interested...
But, it's like you guys said, it's crap.
Pure and freakin' simple.
I didn't even have to read the article to know what was implied with the ad. Not sure why some people think that it needs explaining to understand.
Regardless, I still think it sucks, but not any worse than many other ads/commercials out there right now, so I guess what I'm saying is that it's on par with the norm.
*sticks WTF button to head and beats self over head with frying pan*
the original PSP ads (the one where they throw it to eachother, and the animated ones) were cool. the romeo and juliet one is quite funny. but this deserves the WTF award of today
LOL DATS SMART
I swear, sony comes up with THE STUPIDEST ads out there, i think the ONLY good ones that they made for the psp is the dust balls ads, other then that they are complete retards.
Hey, nintendo showing people dance and act fools any better? atleast this is just a photo, not a 30 sec comercial
Lol weird but well done on Sony's part... It's no more lame than any other number of ads out there today, and hey it's something that can at least make you ask WTF... hey maybe it's a tie-in to that new game!!!
--Databoy2k
I think that they're ads are supposed to be out of the ordinary. They want to make you say "wtf?" and then make you want to say "What is this for?" then you see the PSP sign. If you were to see an ad with a PSP on it, you wouldn't really care much or it wouldn't really affect you more than an ad that makes you say "wtf."
I think they spend more time figuring out how to make an ad that is a piece of sh** than figuring out how to make better firmwares.. which is why it's a piece of ***** firmware.
UNLESS YOU'VE GOT NOTEPAD ON YOUR PSP!!!
Sony = Pwnt by homebrew.
