Maybe this time, Sony got it right. After a string of advertising flops, this new TV ad for the PlayStation Portable just might be able to turn things around in their marketing department. It's witty, funny, and risky. After admitting that the AllIWantForChristmasIsAPSP campaign was a dismal failure, and after expanding their horizons in terms of target markets, Sony certainly is upping the ante with this new commercial.

Yeah, so we all know we find some recluse in the privacy of the bathroom. But the public urinal? Of course, having a guy peeking over from the next cubicle and asking, "Can I play with it?" may not be the most comfortable scenario of all. But it's still hella funny. Now that would be the perfect cue for Sony's other marketing tag: "Dude, get your own!"

   Re: ThrashWolf (Unregistered) - 2007-04-05
 » Yep

Yeah it did, its a clear rip off on Sony's part, its a good ad, but they should try to come up with something original rather than rip off from a rival company

I quite like this for once, the mjaority of PSP commericals I've seen before have been rather lame, well done Sony!

it's about time they give the PSP some good ads. All the other ones for it just sucked.

finaly a good commercial. that wouldnt make me buy a psp but its better then the hairballs. commercials should tell what the psp is fully capable of, not just games but movies, music, wifi etc.
what does the old guy say after the kid gives him the funny look? i cant make it out.


   Re: Snarg (Unregistered) - 2007-04-05

He says
"can I play with it?"

"when you're done"

 » Ad

Personally, i don't have a problem with this ad. Infact, i think its great!

It demonstrates the portability of the PSP and that you can infact take it 'anywhere'

Best commercial by Sony ever made

 » good commercial

Great commercial but someone is bound to have a problem with this. You have to remember the politically correct people are lamers and don't have a sense of humor.
Remember aspercreme, had a commercial saying you beat your sweet aspercreme, people found that in bad taste, what is this world coming to that's a funny play on words, what do you all think, should this aspercreme commercial have been removed from public airways????
