A recent advertisement depicting a seriously hurt man fighting over a Playstation 3 gaming console was deemed too violent for public consumption.
The Musica Playstation 3 advertisement depicts a man with a black eye, scratches, stitches and stab wounds. The words: "STOCKS ARE LIMITED. THINGS COULD GET UGLY" appear at the top of the advertisement.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.

This looks like a great way to play.

i think i have seen this advertisement!
if this is the one i saw then yeh its weird! but then all the PS3 advertisements have been strange to me.
im horney
Microsoft has strange adds too just not so strange as the baby thing.
"saying that the advertisement is irresponsible and offensive as it encourages crime and violence" This comming from South Africa is a little Hypocritical considering it's history of the past 30 years.
Whats realy funny is they say the advertising is offensive but not the violent video games themselves. Then again wasn't South Africa occupied by Germany? and look how strict Germany's laws about video games are (I could be wrong about the South Africa thing, I'm reaching far back in my memory of high school)
Hmm ?
I havent seen this, but even me, as a Sony fanboy will admit that sounds a tad...over the top.
The fact is, the PS3 console isnt selling like hotcakes, and stocks are not even near 'limited'.
Bad idea this advert.
I wouldnt ban this advert because of its violence, but because of its contradiction of facts...
Sony's trying toooo hard, that's sad and what MS commercials are weird?
