30 minutes more airtime without an extra payment sounds swell.

If we will see overtime then it will be even more PS4 advertising on the stadium. More frequent board ads in 2nd half

 

[kevcampbell]

That advertising sure does stand out, Sony made a good choice on those banner adverts

 

[Katana_Strikes]

They think its all over!

It is now!!

 

[LTWheels]

Footballs dead.

Bayern wins and the winning goal was scored by Robben.

Might as well cancel FIFA14.

 

[djshauny]

This is great news for me

Xbone will dominate now. Thanks robben

Nope.

Sony's back baby

 

[Portugeezer]

At half-time 60 second TV ad for Ghosts that ended with Xbox One 'pre order now'

Surprising. Pretty aggressive of MS.

If you weren't paying attention it would look like a 360 add, the Xbone logo wasn't imposing enough and it uses the same sound (though they did show the black box at the end, maybe some people noticed).

they might confuse it for xbox 1, the original

 

[sTeLioSco]

i think is good not adverting now.

it would be a mistake showing only the controller....

 

[LeleSocho]

Eh...

Eheheheheheheh...


AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH


Fucking yesssssssss

 

[Endo Punk]

Everyone looking for PS4 ad but it was right under our noses.

 

[nelsonroyale]

Great news. I'll be there.

 

[crinale]

Sony should really care about Euro region.

 

[Thorgal]

twitter Kaz is at it again.


Edit; OT and perhaps a bit noobish but how do people make pictures of twitter messages on Gaf?

 

[Vashetti]

Holy shit.

:lol

 

[sweetvar26]

Damn, this is huge.

I wonder if they are trying for worldwide launch or just North America, Europe and Japan.

 

[Endo Punk]

twitter Kaz is at it again.

How does this guy get away with impersonating Kaz?! I would think Sony would double down on him by now.

Many people hate the XBOX ONE so much right now that they would prefer to buy literally anything else. Well, anything other than a Vita :,-(

I said goddamn.

 

[pelican]

Because fake kaz is kaz;p

 

[ypo]

Microsoft confirms that if you put a used game into the XBOX ONE, "something will happen"

lol

 

[rvy]

I expected a half-time ad with PES running on PS4 and emulating the CL game.

Disappointment total.

 

[JWong]

Guys, stadium ad banners > 30 second TV ad.

 

[Dead Prince]

Damn, this is huge.

I wonder if they are trying for worldwide launch or just North America, Europe and Japan.

Na. Europe. And japan is considered worldwide. Fuck everyone else

 

[goonergaz]

They definitely presented it in a way that might lead to some beneficial confusion. I thought about that the second they said it.

Typical MS tactic, best used with GTA IV tattoo

 

[Mung]

I am tentatively relieved, but won't be a confident of a Euro release this year unless no delay is announced by October.

 

[Cosmozone]

My Bayern!
My Wii U! :'-(

Spoiler

I never bought a Fifa or even other football video game.

 

[KillerMan91]

Guys, stadium ad banners > 30 second TV ad.

Not to mention that the ad would have not been worldwide ad like the banners are. For example here in Finland there are no ads at all during the break.

 

[RoboPlato]

How does this guy get away with impersonating Kaz?! I would think Sony would double down on him by now.

It says parody account in the description.

 

[Black Republican]

So......i take it you guys didnt wanna wait March again?

 

[Bedlam]

Watched the game with a friend and the ad made us talk about new consoles the whole time. Good times.

Really smart choice of advertising space. And it felt like there was some actual "weight" or importance to it since it wasn't just a product name but an actual announcement. Well done, Sony.

 

[SkylineRKR]

This is all I wanted really, just a 2013 confirmation.

I guess Sony finally became smart and will let Japan slide into 2014. Or they simply have enough stock for everyone.

 

[JonathanPower]

So which region has been shoved to 2014 to compensate? US or Japan?

No way they would left out Japan. I think it's gonna be a worldwide launch.

 

[El-Suave]

If MS were smarter, they'd have preemptively countered tonight's ads, or they will next week in Germany. Because guess who's sponsoring the winners...

I wonder if Redmond even is aware of this.

 

[TheHater]

How does this guy get away with impersonating Kaz?! I would think Sony would double down on him by now.

because it's a parody account and it's actually funny. Get with the times man

 

[Violater]

Shortages all around.

 

[GenericUser]

I will pay whatever amount of money you are going to charge me sony, remember this!

 

[Strike]

Doing it right. I'm still not convinced they'll be able to make a worldwide launch, but if anything they can just delay in Japan if they have to at this point.

 

[Man]

Yeah. You don't show 2013 at Champions League final and not deliver. Confirmed!

 

[Globox_82]

No way they would left out Japan. I think it's gonna be a worldwide launch.

Why not japan is irrelevant at this point, at least compared to europe and NA

Belittling your fanbase is generally not a good idea.

 

[Shadow of the BEAST]

september or august is a good month.

will give it a head start.

 

[bigboss370]

september or august is a good month.

doesn't count as 'holiday 2013' which is what they showed at the reveal conference.

 

[Man]

september or august is a good month.
will give it a head start.

It won't release sooner than November anywhere. They want that Battlefield 4, COD etc and generally as much as time as possible for 1st party title refinement. They (like any other console platform release) won't have a problem selling all of their systems shipped in 2013.

 

[Pandemic]

I say this each and every time, Australia better be included!

 

[Persona86]

That would be a dream come true.

If they have no choice japan is the last to go, thats my point. Of course they launch ww if they can. Thats not the point

Use the print screen key (next to F12 on windows). Then paste the image into an image editor.

Vista/7/8 also have the Snipping Tool.

 

[DBT85]

Belittling your fanbase is generally not a good idea.

Europe put up with it, and MS was actually a contender here. In Japan its Nintendo or Sony. If Sony felt like it they could delay Japan for 3 months and unless something magical happens with the Wii U they probably wouldn;t even notice a difference.

Not that I think Japan is going to go out and buy the PS4 in crazy numbers.

In Japan in 2006, the PS3 only sold 81,000 systems in the first day, in the UK it sold 165,000 in the first 2 days, France about 80,000, Spain and Portugal slightly behind that, with Germany in the 50-60,000 mark according to Sony.

I expect it to be WW anyway.
