I mean, if so this is why Nintendo will win and Playstation will lose. Targeting the small minority of sexist male gamers.. Yes I am female, yes I am a nintendo fangirl. But hey I own a PS2!! Wouldn't a guy prefer a girl who plays games with him? GG bad advertising :D Would sony be so stupid as to publish such a one audience ad?

It just wouldn't float with the executives and it would have a very negative impact on the female market segment. And by the way SONY could use all the customers they can get right now, what with all the "Console wars and all"!

OK so your'e girlfriend bores you, then break up with her. I'm quite sure there are plenty of times when girls are bored shitless by their boyfriends too! Are they insinuating that the any game system is a replacement for a real girl!? If so they should go play their video games and at night, hug and kiss their pillows and pretend their real girls!!!!! NERDS. It's a stupid AD PROMO if it's real. They should re think it, it could be much better. I don’t see what this “AD” has to do with anything!

If this was printed in a magazine then the second advert could be put on the next page or later in the magazine and then it wouldn't have made it so inclusive like post 23 says. Might have at least helped Sony save themselves a bit.

"We’re reliably informed, however, it’s not a bona fide PlayStation advert." Yes, because you're not payed by Sony, but you get to talk to them, right? Doesn't anybody find it weird that threespeech is owned by an ad firm called Ramp Industry, the same ad firm that Sony hired for their alliwantforchristmasisapsp stealth marketing. I like Sony products, especially the PS2, but I can't stand being lied to all the time. Come on Sony, you don't need all this stealth marketing and astroturfing, let your awesome products speak for themselves.
