OOOOHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Shots fyi-yad yo!!

 

[saunderez]

If their House includes the Vita....

...That is the farthest thing from in order I can think of.

Vita isn't included in the house, it's the detached outhouse.

 

[lantus]

Hahaha Sony: "Ain't no stopping this train mofo!!"

 

[Rebel Leader]

Hahaha Sony: "Ain't no stopping this train mofo!!"

Sir, there were no brakes in the blueprint. It was never supposed to stop

 

[Bgamer90]

Heh, here we go again.

 

[artist]

Get your fucking house in order before you start throwing stones at someone else's, Sony.

If by overzealous OP means wildly successful and prescient, then okay.

:lol

Why so bitter? It's like Microsoft never does this ..

MS got into consoles because Sony was... and Sony got into consoles for entertainment.

Also... EyeToy and PSEye (including tech demos for 3D tracking with both of those) came before Kinect.

Also, Sony had online before MS (MS just did it better)...

I mean.. =S... I don't know what to say man.

Actually Sony got into consoles because Nintendo left them at the altar.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

I want Kanye West to be involved in this somehow.

Automatically buying a PS4 if kanye is involved

 

[Izick]

Automatically buying a PS4 if kanye is involved

I'm pretty much already on board but Kanye can't really hurt at this point.

 

[Baconsammy]

Taking shots at the competition worked out well for them with PS3vs360, MovevsKinect, and Vitavs3DS. Get your shit together, Sony. Until then just focus on not being fuckups.

Can someone explain this whole yoga comment to me. I can't really figure out what yoga has to do with microsoft.

I think it's more of a shot at Nintendo and Wii Fit.

I LOVE IT

Microsoft needs that fire lit under their asses.

Doing Fitness with consoles =/= gaming

 

[Izick]

I LOVE IT

Microsoft needs that fire lot under their asses.

I definitely agree with that.

 

[saunderez]

Doing Fitness with consoles =/= gaming

Except when you do it on a Sony console of course.

 

[ArjanN]

*sigh* That odd feeling when you realise you are now older than a company's primary demographic.

sadface.

fake edit: wow I sounded quite condescending there. But seriously; as fun as this is to watch, who is this type of marketing actually appealing to? As far as I can tell it just makes the Sony fans giggle and the XBox fans say "pfffft". It's winning no one over, surely? Or am I just middle aged now?

It just means you're a grown-up now and your childish bullshit detector is working.

It worked well for them with sega and Nintendo. See how easy that is?

There is a first party published PS3 fitness game.

Xbox was not Microsoft's first product you know.

 

[ProfessorMoran]

Mocking the overzealous Xbox 360's "Jump In" Campaign:



Begun the console war has.

(That or maybe Sony wants us to bail out and prepare for disappointment).

Edit: A jab at Kinect (or Wii Fit perhaps?)

Spoiler

Console War III between Sony and Microsoft.

They're right though, yoga isn't fucking gaming. I'm sure as a married man, eventually the last shred of dignity I have will be taken away and I'll be forced to entertain my kids with my own fucking console and I'll be forced to exercise with the wife, and I'll have to watch fucking dora on NFL sunday, but not yet.

Needs more mud slinging

If it were that easy, PS3 and Vita wouldn't have happened.

But yes, I do remember the good ole days when Sony weren't fuckups and taunted with the best of them:

[ULTROS!]

I think the Yoga isn't Gaming is targeted towards Wii and WiiFit.

It is gaming. Like it or not fitness games are a new genre that has found quite a lot of success.

 

[enzo_gt]

Needs more ad-clad boats

Agreed.

 

[Ahasverus]

Sony wins the generation. We're talking about videogames here.

 

[Bsigg12]

I can see Mattrick and/or Ballmer in a training montage right now.

I just hope Sony delivers, you can't talk shit then show up like a bitch...

 

[Punkster_NY]

oh snap! I like this new more aggressive Sony.

 

[watership]

Sony wins the generation. We're talking about videogames here.

I was on the fence, with all the rumors and leaks. But when Sony tweeted "Jump out", I knew that Microsoft was doomed and PS4 would win the next 7 years.

 

[Boss Man]

This one's better.

Haha, shit is getting real.

This feels more like the Sega Nintendon't type of console wars than the technical bickering that I remember from last gen.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Haha, shit is getting real.

Some of us knew shit was real before it was cool.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Guys I hate console wars.

 

[Domcorleone]

My point is taunting and trash talk works if you have good marketing behind it. Hardware was ps3 or vita worse than its predecessors? Game wise was ps3s first party worse than ps2? No.

I understand you trying to be a little snarky with your response but saying ps3 wouldn't have happened is silly. They sold 70+ million consoles...

Edit:

Also I like your posts so don't think I'm trying to be too combative ;-)

Shots fired! Move Fitness 2 bunded 4 inbound!

Ubisoft exclusive sequel confirmed (Yoga not included next gen)

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Lost to many friends in battle?

Tears of joy.

This reminds me how shameless the move is. It's like the peripheral version of Dante's Inferno or the new Tomb Raider.

It worked great with Killzone 3 though :-/

 

[Zee-Row]

Now watch them disappoint me and reveal Wonderbook 2.

I love love love shit-talking commercials/marketing. Genny vs SNES was epic. Sony vs Sega/Nintendo was awesome. I even loved the PS3 Move ad that targeted Kinect (the PEW PEW PEW ad), but in my opinion it only really works when you're in a position of strength. I just think Sony should try to get there first and then start waving their dick around again. This is the equivalent of a football player on a team losing by 50 taunting a guy on the other team. Then the other guy just points at the scoreboard and walks away laughing.

 

[PsychoSoldier]

This is my favorite one in this thread.

As a console war veteran though I'm going to be sitting this one out and watching shit go down.

[Kunan]

Ah it's good to see some good ol console wars again. Been a bit droll lately.

 

[Radec]

And here we go!

 

[RoboPlato]

Ads made me chuckle but let's hope this isn't a sign of Sony getting cocky again like they were leading up to the PS3 reveal and launch.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Competition is good.

Eh, I guess.

But the gifs

I gotta admit, these gifs are amazing and fucking hilarious.

Lost to many friends in battle?

Not really, this is my first GAF console war. Thing is, I hate seeing a page full of terrible jokes that don't make sense. Like "Jump Out"

Yeah this is pretty shitty marketing. You're not supposed to insult potential buyers Sony!
