Sony has released the second half of the Long Live Play trailer that caused a stir a few weeks ago. The mystery trailer had everyone quessing but few reconized it for what it actualy was; a clever new PlayStation 3 ad.
If you were anticipating anything else, prepare to be disappointed. As far as PS3 advertisement goes, this ad is the best I’ve seen in a while.

Sensational advertising, I love the campaigns of the SCE.
This was really well done, like the previous one with the return of Kevin.
A great selection of classic characters

Brilliant ad…and THAT SACKBOY-so cute.

Great add. In the end I MIGHT have changed it so it wasn’t a pic of someone holding a Dualshock but maybe a pic of their avatar. That’s just me.

Awesome as shit. The 1st half I was like what is this? But this is such a great commercial. We the gamerz jump in and give the heros of our games the extra kick in themetaphoic nuts to move their butts!

Really cool add! But honestly, I bet everyone is a bit disappointed ;p
But I got to admit it, Sony really knows hoe to create hype.

@Pedro: You know, I thought I would be disappointed it wasn’t some awesome announcement, but I really didn’t mind because of how it was handled. I also haven’t completely written off this being the start of a new ad campaign for something big. After all, Sony did create their own hype just for a commercial-which is odd.

I was actually kind of expecting an ad or something. With that said, is this really considered an ad, in the sense of television, where most are, at most, a minute long? I think it’s more just like a promo video than an ad in that sense.

A long, long time ago, I wrote a crappy post about the Six Weirdest PlayStation ads. This is No. 7.
But it’s not weird in a bad way, like most of the ones on that post were. No, this is weird in a FREAKING AWESOME WAY

i was hoping for them to introduce something new and awesome but they didnt. Still this was such an awesome ad with all of these iconic characters

actually pretty good, but instead of 2 random soldiers for Resistance, they should have had Hale and Capelli. Kinda stupid not to.
#15 by Isli on October 5th, 2011 [ 31405 Points ]
I actually liked the random soldier more. Let’s be honest, neither Hale nor Capelli bring much to the table.

Well that teaser before was misleading … here I was thinking it was some new game but anyways nice seeing the game characters in live action.
