Slighty cringing to watch if I'm honest. Kinda cool at the same time though.

So what was with the counter at the bottom saying how many are being given away? Also everything in slow motion is awesome.

I've always wondered what a busted LCD looks like.

I was disappointed with the result. I was expecting an epic explosion that levels the entire facility, not a few shards of broken glass.

This was on Kotaku, I think it's an Australian giveaway.

Everyone saying "Ohhh I wanted that!! What a waste!". Well it's actualy much cheaper to get a PS3 from the production line, get a TV sponsored from Bravia and fling the PS3 at it then spend thousands of dollars making expensive CG and animation or hire a bunch or actors.
 
I thought it was a cool advert. Slow motion ripple effect always looks awesome.

This, and also there is a strong chance there we just defective units off the production line.
