Sony Scores with Enormous PS4 Champions League Final Presence

Push Square: "We feel for the players of Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. Both sides have the ultimate prize in club football within their grasp – but those PlayStation 4 banners must be mighty distracting. We’re not sure how either side is going to be able to focus on putting the ball in the net when they know that they’ll be playing Killzone: Shadow Fall this Christmas."

Fun Fact: Sony's new marketing team used to market Google Chrome and they are the one who created the Halo 3 Believe & Gears 2 Rendezvous campaigns.

Saw the game. The ad pretty much confirms the release of the ps4 in Europe. Good for them, they are a huge market for playstation.

showtimefolks3985d ago

Microsoft have just advertised COD ghosts for Xb one during half time o_0

It's on!!

Arai3985d ago

The Last of Us for the US, CoD:Ghosts for the UK.
Everywhere else, nothing...those ads on the pitch are more effective anyways.

Chaostar3985d ago

Yeah, still, I tip my hat to MS on that one, it was nicely played.

I'm loving the back and forth so far, I hope it escalates to the point that Kaz and Ballmer have a fight in the street Matrix Revolutions style.

Dee_913985d ago

xbone also did a little xbone/cod adverts during the NBA conf finals commercials.

TKCMuzzer3985d ago

@ANIALATOR136
It always has confused me why there is such a scrap to get an AD on at half time. Your right, 90% of people get up and do something else as soon as the half ends and people in the pub always turn away from the screen to get another pint from the bar. It does seem that sticking it up in big letters every 5 mins on the side of the pitch is far more effective, I mean last night you had no choice but to read the sign it was that bright.

ther was no COD xbox one ads on my tv.. im in the US

S2Killinit3985d ago

I never understood why they do that with a game that is on both consoles. But I guess people buy it. The only ad I saw here in Cali was The Last of Us for PS3. Awesome ad by the way. Looks like a movie, no joke

Dee_913985d ago

Lol actually they dont
They always advertise COD on xbox when I see the commercials, but they still sale more on ps3.

andrewsqual3985d ago

Believe it, it works. I actually had a friend who thought that MGR Revengeance was coming to 360 only last January because it was shown at the Microsoft E3 Press Conference IN 2009!!!!!
I had to lol at him and say actually its funny you say that, the game isn't coming to 360 at all in Japan.

bangshi3984d ago

Correction - Activision just advertised COD Ghosts.

Just as they have done for the past few years. Nothing new here.

I just saw XBone Pre order commercial with COD footage during half time Champions League ads....I think MS just tried to steal Sony's thunder!

Did anyone see that coming?

PSVita3985d ago

With a game that's going to be on both system lol

sway_z3985d ago (Edited 3985d ago )

I know!!!!

MS always advertises third party games like they are 'Only on Xbox'...but we all know better.

Still, I was surprised to see that ad.... But I can see 'PS4 Coming 2013' Banners throughout the entire game.

BlmThug3985d ago

Sony does the same with Assassins Creed

Why o why3985d ago

It was a very well placed add as it, and the htc one add, ironically, were the only adds I noticed.....

Tell a lie, the gazprom add also stuck out. Touche

imt5583985d ago (Edited 3985d ago )

@sway

Nope.

Jihaad_cpt3985d ago

At half time I was to busy not watching the TV I reserved my focus for the game

Call of Duty: Ghosts for Xbox One. PREORDER NOW!

Shuyin3985d ago

Shove that piece of shit system up your arse.
PS4's the right way, brother.

S2Killinit3985d ago

For everything else, there is PS4!

TKCMuzzer3985d ago

Activation are the winners, Microsoft are just selling their game for them, everyone man and his dog knows that you can get COD on virtually any system going, even my mum knows and she really doesn't care.

I wouldn't touch neither Xderp Juan nor Call of Doody: Dog shit.

How to recruit Lam in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes

Lam is among the 120 characters available for recruitment in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. While she is one of the many straightforward recruits, a known bug may prevent players from recruiting her if certain conditions are met. Despite developers’ assurances of fixing the bug, some early access players still encounter issues with recruiting Lam despite attempting the standard method.

Tomb Raider Remastered just quietly censored one in-game detail

Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered players are ticked off by the game’s most recent patch, which censors in-game pin-up posters of Lara Croft.

This is why gaming is screwed. When people change things to fit someone’s agenda, it’s a slippery slope downhill.

Christopher9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

Even if that agenda is of the developer? Way to remove developer rights.

***One player called it a “huge problem with modern games,” saying they can now be “ruined AFTER people buy them”.***

The level of drama. Yes, I recall sitting there for more hours than I did anything else in the game. These two pinups are the core of the game, after all!

coolbeans7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

rlow1's cringe catastrophizing aside, I do think developers *ought* to strive to maintain an original work to the best of their ability. The language of a "remaster" tacitly implies that - for good or ill - what's being resold is what fans remember but better.

Profchaos7h ago

Games can be ruined after purchasing them yeah we know this not from this but from GTA IV which had half it's radio content patched out due to licensing expirations and to me that was a huge deal.

This pin up poster is a bit of nonsense but the whole argument of modern games can be ruined post launch is Absol true.

DedicatedDark6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

It's not their work to censor. They are incharge of restoration & remastering the work, not overwriting it.

Barlos5h ago

It's not the agenda of the developer though, they're pandering and trying to increase their ESG score.

Way to support censorship...

victorMaje5h ago

It’s not the end of the world for sure, but I understand the hate towards this kind of change. I believe it’s also a matter of principle.

Imagine a Picasso painting being restored & the restorer deciding there aren’t enough strokes, or some lines aren’t straight enough or curved enough…not sure it would/should sit well with people.

Have all original devs signed off on this change? Even if it’s the case, are we saying older gamers are better mentally equipped to process what was there than current gamers, hence the change?

Enough time ago the case was made that games are an art form. We’re supposed to have won that case.
So which is it? Are games art or not?

Hasn't this been happened for over a decade since remasters? I can't see that it's any worse now. Maybe if Sweet Baby starts getting their hands on remasters we will definitely have a problem.

Rebel_Scum8h ago

tbh I dont see something like this as censorship. Does anyone else not find it strange for someone to stick pin ups of themsleves in a locker room?

Now of it was a pin up of some half naked firefighters it might make sense as Lara might like that, and if they removed that I would cry censorship. But removing pin ups of the main character, yeah I get it.

Barlos5h ago(Edited 5h ago)

It's a game, and they were placed there for the audience. It's not real life. If it was, she wouldn't have fought a T-Rex now would she?

Yes, it's censorship but it's a bit less in your face. If they were in the original game, then they should have been in the remasters. It's bad enough that they have that ridiculous unnecessary warning at the start, but then they start removing things post launch. I don't care how small the change, they shouldn't be doing it. It's nothing but ESG pandering but in a subtle way.

Rebel_Scum4h ago

Look bro, if you have pictures of yourself naked on a bear skin rug up in your house let me tell you, its not normal.

jambola3h ago

I wasn't aware censorship was based on what made sense to you

Rebel_Scum3h ago

Likewise, what a stupid comment.

jambola2h ago

I agree
Your comment was pretty stupid

Rebel_Scum2h ago

I never said censorship is based on what I say dumbass. Just because I dont see this as censorship doesnt mean I’m saying others cant.

How about you come at me with your opinion rather than snarky comments with no thought on the matter.

SimpleDad5h ago

By the year 2030, this remaster collection will totally be changed and censored. Probably will remove Lara as a playable character. It's ridiculous. Glad that my family didn't buy this.
I still have Tomb Raider 2 PS1 as a memory.

jambola3h ago

Those shorts are a little revealing
Should probably make them snow pants

Barlos3h ago

They'll probably make her trans

CobraKai4h ago

It’s mentioned in the article, and it’s a point i 100% agree with, it’s the fact that they can censor a game after you buy it. That’s total bullshit.

Killer2020UK4h ago

Whilst it's an overreaction to say this has "ruined" the game, it's still problematic that this has happened post launch and for many, post-purchase.

I don't want someone to change a product for the worse after I've bought it. The same goes for implementing micro transactions after reviews.

I wonder why they did this? Nobody was kicking up a fuss as far as I'm aware.

Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster Review – You Are Your Job, Apparently

Gary Green said: In a time where an enhanced, 3D remake of Final Fantasy III already exists, it’s hard to argue that Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster is the definitive version we were expecting. With Final Fantasy III already being the last in the series to be translated and make its way west, this is something of a slap in the face for the fans. Still, let’s not be disheartened. There may be many shortfalls in this edition of Final Fantasy III, however there’s no denying that this classic JRPG still holds some nostalgic value, even if it struggles to break away from its original hardware limitations.

It’s funny I’m seeing these articles about pixel remaster, and I just platinumed 1-4 within 8 days lol. I’ve been on FF5 for about a week now. Let’s just say 5 was the start of FF having content like crazy. I should have the plat within 2-3 days.

MrBaskerville52m ago

The game being an accurate represantation of the original was not a slap in the face to the fans. The 3D remasters looked like ass (visually) tbh.
