Quantcast



Fact: Fanboys produce 98% of all video-game related mashup videos on YouTube. Some are genuienly funny while the rest are, well, like this South Parkian mashup  spotted by DICK on Sony's semi-official blog ... biding its time until the Haterade truck arrives. It does have some clever humor though, like the part where he walks past a huge pile of unsold Wiis in a store! HAR HAR! Oh wait, did I miss the point?

Bottom line: Given the selected footage, it seems like nothing sells the PS3 like its yet to be released games. With the exception of a few recently released cameos of MotorStorm, I have to brush it off as This Is Living in the future, at best.

Henk is some massive dude. Check out how small the PS3 box is next to him as he walks away. What does that make him? 6'5"?

Is Henk obsessed solely with Motorstorm? 'cause that's the only non-multiplatform game in there that I noticed...

It seems the author doesn't take too kindly to negative comments. He deleted my comment.

Well that certainly sucked balls. PS3 game footage with crappy SP ripoff intro and ending. I think it clogged my intertube...

Sorry Human: We can't always convince gaming companies to advertise on Dtoid so we take what we can to pay the hosting bill :(

Actually that video was WAY better than the entire "this is living" campaign.

BTW: A friend of mine just bought a ps3 yesterday (yes I did hit him square in the back of his head for not getting a Wii60 instead, no worries) so tonight Im playing resistence and motorstorm for the first time in an HD screen (he also has an HD what a bastard!), lets see how thats like. I doubt Im dissing my 360 tomorrow though.

Oh come on Summa! it was nice in a " 5 year old first ugly drawing in the fridge" kind of way. And it was WAY more understandable and convincing even than the actual "this is living" campaign.

Lets just hope sony is not behind this a la "allIwantforxmas" in any way. That would be horrible.
