That's actually a pretty neat ad. So far the only ad I've seen for the SIII in the UK is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsP-S2nETCc https://www.yout

With selling points such as "it understands you", "keeps track of loved ones", "recognises who you are", "follows your every move", "waits till you're asleep", it sounds like a commercial for a bloody serial killer.

I watched the ad you posted. It's bland. It's too bad that they didn't have something edgier, especially with those quotes you mentioned. Maybe even something a bit more like this, from a few years ago? http://crystaltips.typepad.com/wonderland/2006/02/new_psp_adverts.html http://crystaltips.typepad.com/wonderland/2006/02/new_psp_ad...
- aes256 14y agoI assume the reason it's bland is because it was designed to be translated into a bunch of different languages, most likely to be used across the whole of Europe, if not the Middle East and Asia as well. I would guess the copy wasn't written in English, and whatever message it was intended to convey was lost in translation. It's not quite as bad as the bland multinational ads we get where they have the audacity to dub English over foreign vocals, but it's not far off...
