PS3 Slams Into, Kills Bravia HDTV at 50 MPH

[gbismack]

And my old tube tv can get hit by a PS3. Or a SNES, since its a tube TV.

haha i respect this ad they are destroying their own products, high cool factor. See the test dummy on looking from the side lines haha I wonder how many times they did this to get the right looking impact.

 

[flaminggerbil]

Wow, that was fairly cool in a completely pointless way.

 

[redgarl]

That means that the PS3 is undestructable... awesome... >😛

I was totally expecting a full speed video. Was sorta disappointed I didn't get to see it in full speed.

But I have to say, that's one of the best commercials I've seen in a long time. Very cool. Not enough good commercials these days. They're all pretty stupid anymore.

The PS3 stay together well as did the TV considering.

 

[megamanx00]

Weird, but cool. Almost makes me want a PS3, almost...

 

[warezme]

people do that with the Wi mote all the time already, old news

I wish we had games that could render tiny shards of shattered glass so beautifully

[citation][nom]omnimodis78[/nom]I completely agree with you! Not sure why you're getting thumbs down on your comment. I watched that commercial, and it was a well produced one, clearly - but the point of it makes no sense at all. Is it shock value? Is it to show that Bravias are just as breakable as all others, etc? I suppose it's making us talk about it, so it worked - that's the ultimate aim of any commercial: to get noticed, and remembered.[/citation]

"In essense, Sony is 'throwing a PS3 Slim into each Bravia' sold."

The article explained it for you. How do you not get it?

It is a pretty cool commercial but if the objective was to inform viewers that they get a free PS3 with the purchase of a Bravia television they failed miserably. Not sure I understand the objective of that commercial, seems fit more for a viral youtube marketing campaign than a television based advert.

would've been more awesome if the TV was turned on...

I think sony was trying to make fun of wii's... meaning if you're going to throw an object at your tv, do it with a force and style...notice how the PS3 turned as it was in the air and hit the tv so the logo (front) was showing... marketing and a nice job at it.

That TV was very likely a dead production sample.

 

[cookoy]

Because Xbox users do this all the time? Sony has to appoint the folks down under to come up with a video to answer the nagging question what if PS3 sucks like the Xbox and people start throwing them at their TVs? Tada!

 

[lightsaber]

Psp slim.....nah.....now what would've been impressive an original PS3 going full force at that lcd!!!

he's getting a thumbs down because people like him and you have no sense of humor and that every ad on TV does not have to be as serious as you think they should be.

 

[pooass1984]

yeah god knows they couldn't have given that tv and ps3 to perhaps someone who wants one but can't afford one.....assholes

yeah, they should have had it playing live video of the ps3 crashing into it! that would have been sweet
