Apple Lose Out To Samsung, Xbox to PS4 in Video Ad Battle [Report]

The report clearly identifies who is winning the hearts and the minds of consumers in the run up to the big holiday season. The sharing of a video across social networking platforms is a major indication that the content is relevant, informative or entertaining and that people are willing to buy into the brand if they trust the recommendations from their peers.

Ahh so cl1983 removed his objection and my comment was marked as off topic? Not cool.

On Topic:
=========

"Unruly also analysed other players in the technology arena such as tablets, web browsers, game consoles and video games and found that Sony's PS4 console video ads far outweighed shares for Microsoft's Xbox, with Sony's videos generating 90% of the shares and 91% of the views between the two rivals."

That is on topic amirite?

darthv723879d ago

sorry madden, not really a reply to you but.....

YAY Samsung! Apple can suck it!

okay that was in poor taste but still

YAY Samsung!

At Darth above me: So you replied to him in order to stick your comment somewhere near the top? Classy. As it's Apple though I'm strangely okay with it.

At negative below me: Damn! You're tearing up like someone replaced your Preparation H with hot sauce. It would explain a lot of your posts though.

OT: Going by these statistics it's a smack down. It may not translate to real life in the same manner though.

Edit: For edits.

darthv723879d ago

@lost, yeah...lol i did it. and i'd do it again.

YAY Samsung!

okay that time wasnt really needed.

You stay classy San Diego.

AceBlazer133879d ago

@Lost Djinn don't most of the users on this site do that?

Maddens Raiders3879d ago

It's ok darth lol I love my Samsung products too man. Good stuff.

Godlovesgamers3879d ago

You a samsung shareholder then, Darthv72?

darthv723879d ago

@godlovesgamers...well, as consumers, arent we all shareholders?

I do have my fair share of samsung products from tv's to phone's to dvd/bluray players. Havent had any trouble with them in the years i have been a samsung consumer.

if i had the $$ to buy a Renault (subsidiary of samsung) i would but i drive a hyundai. Gets really good gas mileage too.

supes_243879d ago

I agree Darth. I have Apple iPhone and iPad but recently bought a Samsung galaxy. I am sick and tired of apple products. It's the popular thing, not the best product. Camera and video is inferior, screen and video quality is also worse on apple products. Never buying an apple product again for me or the family.

nukeitall3878d ago

Why are people so against Apple?

A lot of the arrogance they had is now gone with Steve Jobs. I find them more palatable now.

Well at least people are waking up about Apple selling overpriced products. It's funny to think that Samsung provided a lot of parts for Apple phones.

NatureOfLogic3879d ago

cl1983 gets really report happy most of time. I disagree with most of his reports. I just approve the article if I disagree.

OT: Sony has made all the right moves to dominate this gen. I can't wait for my PS4 on Nov. 15.

ZBlacktt3879d ago

This is what happens when you have MS players and Sony players who approve or not stories.

VforVideogames3878d ago

Wow so this report of Microsoft loosing to sony is based on videos watched on you tube?

DAYUMMMMMMM

ps4 has garnered 91% mindshare if the ad views are accurate

that is a proper spanking

user74029313879d ago

more than a spanking, its pulling the hair , spanking, demeaning all while doing it in public. BUTT NAKED

theBAWSE3879d ago

sony bukkake'd all over Microsoft

after microsoft's arrogance and greed going into the new generation I'm happy they have been brought down a peg or two

dlocsta3879d ago

To bad it means nothing. The problem here is those shares are coming from people from sites like this. As much as we would like to think we are major, we are but a SMALL piece of the puzzle. If we were so major the Wii would not have been the great success that it was. Talk about all of those shares in 12 months.

5h4h4b3879d ago (Edited 3879d ago )

Ps4 is ahead in everything it seems :)

TheTwelve3879d ago

Disagreers out in force, trying their very best to haaaaang on!!!

MASTER_RAIDEN3879d ago

PS4 deserves just about every ounce of positive press its been getting lately. so glad to see sony making all the right moves, including aggressive add campaigns.

Such a good game to me. Crazy how different peoples opinions can get.

Crows9038m ago(Edited 37m ago)

For me it wasn't that surprising. There was some bad press before. There's also the matter and element of a person's disposition when trying out a certain game. Sometimes you're just not really into the type of game that you're playing so you put it down because you don't like it. Not necessarily because it's a bad game but because you're just not up for something like this. Reviewers have a tough because no matter what they feel like playing they've got to play what's releasing.

I have many times gone back to games that I put down only to thoroughly enjoy them the second time around because either there wasn't another exciting game coming out around the same time or I just had no other games to play and haven't played that type of game in a while. I'm not the type of person that can just play a souls game through all this iterations one after the other without getting burnt out on the formula.

In my opinion this game was great from the start. Some bugs here and there but nothing worse than the most AAA releases during the same time after and before. All I did was wait one week and I had a phenomenal time with the game. No other zombie survival game comes close to how I thoroughly enjoyed this one

Second act of that game far surpassed the first. Which is why people felt it didn't live up to the hype of the trailers. Personally I loved it. But it was a slog to get your bike and weapons up to skill.

Inverno20m ago

Was gonna post a brick wall of text but I'll keep it short. Pardon my French but f**k the media for the hate they gave this game. If you have a PC to play it on you can get it as low as 10 bucks, and if you have a PS then it's a no brainer. Totally worth a play.

phatak3m ago

I don't even comment here often but had to for this game, I still stand by my opinion that this was one of the top 10 games of the ps4 generation, I preferred days gone over god of war, horizon and last of us 2, the launch version was definitely piss poor and that messed up the reviews for this game, honestly some games deserve a re-review or post patch review as the metacritic score stays forever but the reality is its not even the same game anymore, the ps5 patch is amazing and the pc version which I play on nowadays is one of the best looking games ever, complete shame that we wont get a sequel, god of war got one, horizon got one, last of us got one, spider man got one, this game wont get one, sucks to be honest.

Ps3/360 era had some hidden underated games for me it was shadows of the damned, alice madness returns that deserved more sales and a sequel/ higher scores, and similarly for the ps4 era it was days gone, and dying light 1 that deserved much more love, dying light atleast got a sequel, everyone needs to play this game once and judge for themselves, for me its officially the most underrated game of the ps4 era, go play it if you haven't !
