Sony promised it was saving the best til last and it seems that they have. The narrator of this LittleBigPlanet seems to be channeling Donny from You Suck At Photoshop, but that only adds to the humor. We've enjoyed this advertising campaign. Hopefully it'll get quite a few people to stop and think "huh, that looks interesting." The game deserves massive sales throughout the Christmas season.
We've not actually seen the adverts on telly yet, but a number of you guys have commented saying you've seen them. If you have any anecdotes about non-gamers' reactions to the ads, let us know. We're intrigued.
My mum saw the advert after corrie (a tv show in the UK). And the next day, trying to impress me, asked me if i'd got the game with the little ball bag yet?
does this level really exist? cause that would be really really cool. like really really really cool. well...not THAT cool. but it'd still be pretty cool.

What's wrong with "telly"?
"Douche"..
You sound like Kelly Osbourne.

And that's the one I was talking about yesterday in the 2nd Spot.
It's the only one which have been aired (?, don't know if it's written right, gh.) here in Italy. :p

So we have Murray from Flight of the Choncords in the first.
Not sure who it is supposed to be in the second. But Heavy Metal Mullet Planet sounds awesome!
And Donny from YSAP for the third.
Good stuff. I wish these aired in the US. The 'what is fun' ads were a bit lame, honestly.

Heres an anecdote for you.
My mum saw the advert after corrie (a tv show in the UK). And the next day, trying to impress me, asked me if i'd got the game with the little ball bag yet?
Yes mum. I do.

Too awesome. My wife and I have been playing LBP tons and her name happens to be Janice. I think she will love this video.

They should have got Sn4tchbuckl3r.

Had they included ice in the game like it was supposed to be, we'd actually have a heart of ice, not electricity at shown. Ice hazard DLC! now!
xkiller @ Nov 7th 2008 11:55AM

obtusegoose @ Nov 7th 2008 12:45PM

lantus @ Nov 7th 2008 1:02PM
Wow, these European ads are brilliant, if only the US ones were half as good.
JaseH @ Nov 7th 2008 2:48PM
Lol. Funny ad.
I have one of those "best friends" nagging me... I guess all of us guys do once we find that perfect girl. Or so it seems.
Such a good commercial. Haha. Good on you Sony.
