So many that my girlfriend was getting sick of seeing the single Bullet fly through the sky. I also saw 5 SF4 commercials too.

Sony had it very easy with PS2 and in a sense I guess they don't understand that they have to put a lot of effort into gaining attention and good press. Agree with every word you say.

Sony clearly has a bad rep when it is all said and done. Advertising this game is pointless for now until it gets the sales number they are looking for. This game has been so hyped up that im sure they want the game to build a word of mouth buzz about how amazing it looks plays and so on. The people that by games at launch are the same people that knew about this game 4 years ago. Its about getting the reviews in listening and making sure servers are able to handle the millions of players, and then pumping out the Marketing. Sony did a great job with MGS 4 when that game was on the way. Very few commercials at launch and then after the game recieved great marks, you saw more ad's come across. Sony has already proven that they are willing to sacrifice in order to save money. If they aren't going to shell out any money for exclusive rights on games then they sure as hell aren't going to blow millions on a late winter release advertising budget for a game that is far and away better then any game available now. (SF4) is the only other game I could think of that would thwart sales, and they are not even in the same genre. I thought this was a pro sony website not a get pissed when they make basic money saving plans. I have no idea about the server issue, but it sure beats paying money to play with my friends in other states. I agree with Darrin. Sony clearly has a bad rep when it is all said and done.
