With precious few hours left for people to get their PS3s (precious many months for myself), SCEA is trying their little hearts out to make you feel. Feel anything at all, rather than the numb rage that many of us have been feeling in the recent months.
Its latest advertising stunt involves allowing you to watch a crying baby, and speaking to NewsWeek, senior VP of marketing at SCEA, Peter Dille, feels that whatever you feel, "those answers are true, if that's what it means to you." What?
Is he trying to say that what I feel about a baby, desperately in need of something, is at all similar to what I feel about the PS3? If I feel that the baby needs care and attention, it doesn't necessarily mean I want to give a PS3 a home. Man alive, PS3s are more expensive than children!
Mr. Dille goes on to criticize the blogging community surrounding the Xbox 360 (at least there is one), as well as the drip-feeding of demos to gold members and then silver members. They can start complaining when they stop drip-feeding Europeans PS3s.
I love how Sony thinks it is in their best interest to bash their competitors instead of letting people know what they have to offer.
