Jeez, they don't know the name of their own first party game

That's modern day Sony. Communication ability between various areas of the company = zero. :\

That's hilarious, but I don't think it was something Sony made.

The banner links to
Straight from the SEMA show in Vegas, we take a first look at the upcoming Gran Turismo HD for Sony's Playstation 3.

So it was probably a sponsored banner made by them.

They should hire me so I can fire all the idiots and hire some smart people, then they would only have one idiot to deal with.

God that is sad... and isn't PGR3 a MS exclusive? How in the hell could you mix those up?

I wish I could say things will get better, but Sony ain't showing much sign of that yet. truly unbelievable. :lol
 
Oh, dear. It's much worse when you see the picture. And the games are just promoted visually in such completely different ways! I mean, it LOOKS like a PGR3 shot.

Yikes.

Seriously, Sony need to fire whatever piece of shit agency it is that runs their websites.

The Apple logo, the fake blog and now this?

At best it's utterly negligent. At worst it could land them in court.

Wow :lol :lol :lol

Reminds me of www.xboxlivepipeline.com (official MS site) where they use a PSP screenshot from Medal of Honor: Heroes in the Medal of Honor: Airborne section. But they at least got the name of the game right. :lol
