It’s an incredibly exciting time for PlayStation. We’re experiencing tremendous momentum on the new 120 GB PS3 and yesterday launched the PSPgo which press are touting as an “evolutionary step-up model” and “the most high-powered handheld video-game machine on the market.” And we haven’t even started talking about one of the most anticipated games this year, UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves, which is just around the corner.
UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves is blowing everyone away. It is the best adventure yet from the Naughty Dog team and is well on track to be one of the best games of all time with a 97% rating on Metacritic and 14 perfect review scores. Some are saying that, “if this were a movie, it’d gross a couple hundred million dollars” (thanks GamePro), and many are calling it one of the year’s best action-adventure games. It’s probably an understatement when we say we’re excited for the release. And based on the pre-order numbers, we know many of you will be very busy on October 13.
In my earlier posts about our “It Only Does Everything” campaign, I mentioned that Kevin Butler won’t just be focusing on the PS3’s hardware superiority but would also be rolling out software specific advertisements. We’re excited to give you a sneak peak at the first of these spots, showcasing UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves. In this next installment in our campaign, Kevin fields a “Dear PlayStation” question from a conflicted boyfriend facing the dilemma of telling his girlfriend that UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves is not actually a movie, but in fact, a game. We hope you enjoy what a lot of people here voted as one of their favorite spots in the campaign.
We’re only just getting warmed up for the holiday and still have a bunch more spots to unveil. Tell me what you think and get out and pick up this game! I’ll leave you with the quote from PlayStation: The Official Magazine, “Forget ‘game of the year.’ This is one of the best games of all time.”
Enjoy!

Oh the jokes from Xbox fanboys… I can see them now. “The only game you have is Uncharted 2, even Sony says so”
I don’t think you should have put it like that, “Only does Uncharted 2″

Uncharted 2 does look fantastic, and its review scores put it as one of the highest rated games of all time, but I’d rather get Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising, Brutal Legend, and Demon’s Souls over Uncharted 2.

I hate that this game has gotten such outstanding reviews, cause it means I’ll have to go and buy the first one before I can enjoy the second :(

bball230 | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:07 pm
straight and to the point… uncharted to is the most cinematic games out there.. only on ps3.. solid commercial.. could have been tweaked a little better.. but this is by far the best commercials the ps3 has seen.

Keep the good run of marketing going, not just for the US but in your other major markets too.
26
Berae | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:12 pm
Very nice ads! Why dont you put them here in Quebec Canada? I never ever seen a TV ad about any Sony products here. It seems only Nintendo and Microsoft are in the gaming market from what we see on TV.

@ptrek85-
That’s because you’ve gone completely insane. :p

reson8er | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:13 pm
Please air the heck out of these commercials (I know you have, but keep it up!).
They’re great. Also I suggest one for Ratchet and Clank :D

Capt-Fury- | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:13 pm
It should have a stand alone commercial that actually shows the game for 30 seconds. While funny, it dosent grab the uncharted world very well.

jimfear | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:14 pm
what he say at the end?

mac951 | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:15 pm

Bring it home SCE… bring it home… you and Naughty Dog have both earned it.

SpeedyQuik | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:16 pm
awesome commercial! love the game
36
KidCommando | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:17 pm
GREAT ad!
It is about time that you simply show GAMEPLAY. No video reflections off of walls, no CGI cut scenes, just smokin’ hot gameply. This game deserves a massive marketing campaign!
PSPgo….not so hot, sorry.

CRUNKRIS | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:17 pm

CartBlanche | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:18 pm

Kchow23 | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:18 pm
LOL, keep those ads coming they are great :)

lazlowe1984 | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:18 pm
Sony,you guys need to advertise this game now.Many people still don’t know what Uncharted 2 is.Please advertise this eveywhere and promote it with a soft drink like Coca Cola or Dr Pepper.
I want this game to sell a million so please try to get the ball rolling
41
Vandaliser | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:18 pm

Great ad! Perfect ad to send to friends and get a laugh or two while informing them on the game. 11 more days!
46
roseofmayix | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:21 pm
Since Sony wants to expand its marketing campaign to include females (the laughable Hannah Montana psp and other tween games), it would behoove them to avoid implying that females are idiots. Please for the sake of all that is good in the world, please treat both sexes equally.
47
SPARDA | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:22 pm
LOL
that is the best one so far IMO
Keep it going….GREAT STUFF

Blkant | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:24 pm

DarKaoZ | October 2nd, 2009 at 2:25 pm
LOL I love this guy, he makes the commercials sound sarcastic but at the same time serious, man I cant wait for Uncharted 2!
I hope to see a CGI like commercial like U1, that was funny and great too.
