TV3 are obviously lacking in the original ideas department. The TV3 produced ad; “Something Big On Monday Night”, showcases a montage of clips from upcoming movies. This ad both looks and sounds remarkably similar to the one produced by Sony for the PlayStation 3, “It Only Does Everything” campaign. Imaginary PlayStation spokesperson Kevin Butler is replaced by Dai Henwood, a comedian and television personality.
After the break are the two videos…
As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.
And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.
They buy IPs not talent. That's why these buyouts never work and the IPs die. Right now it's too expensive to develop games - but I expect that to shift maybe as AI tools can make it easier. The best games have been indie games for awhile as big developers fuck their ips to death with "games as a service" -
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

hoo hoo robin, they're rippin me off. tell 'em fred.
I think they're just ripping Sony advertising off, because most non-gamers in NZ wouldn't know Kevin Butler as his advertisements ain't on NZ television. Homage usually requires the viewers to understand what the advertisement is copying. As far as I know, he's not used in advertising in most of Europe (I could be wrong). But I personally don't care because 'ripping off' happens everywhere these days.
Two words
No talent!!
they couldn't come up with an Ad so they stole one!!
