What you call trolling I call Smart AdWord campaigns

 

[marc^o^]

It's on.

 

[Dabanton]

Surely they're talking about the black box in their ad?

 

[dragonflys545]

It begins.

 

[Fandangox]

There's a storm brewing.

 

[nero2082]

I like when they're edgy

 

[MoeB]

hahah

 

[gofreak]

Sony knows where the popular search interest will be in the next few days

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

I love this stuff. Reminds me of the Crash/Mario days

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

That's stretching the definition of "troll" quite a bit.

 

[Meelow]

Reminds me of Sony doing "Oh look...Another Mario game"

 

[aganu]

Surely they're talking about the black box in their ad?

This. Box as in PS4 is also a box. I don't see any reference to Xbox here.

 

[Iced_Eagle]

What you call trolling I call Smart AdWord campaigns

Exactly.

This isn't a new tactic for advertising. For example, when a new Windows release comes out, Apple will have advertisements for OSX show up when you search for Windows.

Like Sega vs Nintendo back in the day, I love it!

 

[kaching]

Scroogled.

 

[KAL2006]

I expect more PS4 previews and teasers tomorrow and Wednesday.

 

[Kallor]

I love it when they are at each other throats. Can't wait to see what Microsoft is bringing to the table.

 

[TheBioLover]

Reminds me of "Oh, yay, another mario game" :lol. That was a fun thread.

Edit: Beaten

 

[Ragus]

On like Dragon Kong.

 

[Sleeplessnights]

Sony PR has been doing really well. Showing a PS4 teaser before/on the day of the Xbox event was a given but you don't' think they'd actually go for it.

They did, well done *slow clap*

 

[Like the hat?]

Not as funny as the "another Mario game" one

 

[Mr. RHC]

This Sony thread is déjà vu.

Tomorrow will be interesting!

 

[Wishmaster92]

 

[RoKKeR]

I like it.

 

[Cornbread78]

I womder what Bing says...

 

[Izick]

I thought they were all in the Next Xbox Event thread.

 

[sixteen-bit]

epic troll sony

 

[Jonboy]

Always wanted to post this one...

 

[Ricky_R]

I expect more PS4 previews and teasers tomorrow and Wednesday.

Yeap. I also expect footage from Knack, Second Son, Drive Club or KZ before E3. Short new trailer of any of them at least.

 

[Louis Cyphre]

Exactly.

This isn't a new tactic for advertising. For example, when a new Windows release comes out, Apple will have advertisements for OSX show up when you search for Windows.

Didn't Microsoft also open up a retail store right across the street from an Apple store at one time?

This was also great;

 

[SJRB]

What you call trolling I call Smart AdWord campaigns

Exactly.

 

[anexanhume]

Wonder if they have any snappy comebacks for "infinity".

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

That's cheese

 

[Kouichi]

I hope Microsoft fights back. It'll make it way more entertaining.

 

[dark_prinny]

Greatness Awaits.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

I knew you couldn't resist lol.

 

[Takuya]

It's either that or bribing the press with free consoles.

 

[iNvid02]

Wonder if they have any snappy comebacks for "infinity".

buzz attempting to fly out the window but falling down the staircase, photoshop an xbox logo to his head

 

[DC R1D3R]

Shows a lot of class from Sony. It's what they're all about.

 

[SirIgbyCeaser]

I'm betting sony will have a promotional video lined up tomorrow with Fifa,UFC, COD footage and a PS4 logo on it too.

Showing off 3rd party games comes with the trick... that the other guy can use the same promotional footage.

 

[Zombie James]

 

[jaypah]

Weak troll. The ads before the PS Meeting were killer. "Jump Out" was my favorite. Still, good on them for the playful jab (if it was intentional). Hopefully they'll both go full-on stupid this Gen.

Shows a lot of class from Sony. It's what they're all about.

Oh come on! It's fun. Remember The Xbox boat? That shit was hella classy, right? No, it was hilarious.

 

[javac]

Your not scared are you?

 

[mr_nothin]

Surely they're talking about the black box in their ad?

This. Box as in PS4 is also a box. I don't see any reference to Xbox here.

And the keyword/adword that the google ad is under is XBOX

 

[dragonbane]

This. Box as in PS4 is also a box. I don't see any reference to Xbox here.

They also trolled Nintendo at the PS4 reveal. Of course it is not outright saying Xbox, but I'm pretty sure the intent is there.
