The NGP looks okay but that trailer was just an assault of the eyes

This makes even less sense than those creepy baby commercials for the PS3. I thought that wasn't possible.

that tells us almost nothing, and i kind of want to hit those actors in the face. not helpful when the rumored price of the system (on gamestop.com, anyway) is a thousand bucks. leave it to sony to completely screw up the marketing videos for their new system. at least they're not trying to advertise this one with eggs and creepy ass babies and bleeding chess pieces...
*sigh*
sometimes i wonder about you, sony.

High-concept trailer. 
I'm not smart enough to understand it. 
Someone want to explain all the symbolism, allegories, etc. to me in layman's terms? 
 
I like the part where you can just pick up cute women from the street.  That feature doesn't cost extra does it?

@Kyle: 
there is much more info out there on this thing that is being released and there hasn't been any real updates. kotaku and joystiq is all over that stuff and i wonder why giant bomb isnt. i dont mind its just disappointing and sad that ppl who get their video game news from here only only get half the story.

Ah Sony, you crazy, crazy bastards. Here I was thinking "well, this could almost be sane with that dude and the menu around him".  Gosh, I hope one day they advertise their stuff in a way that will actually increase sales...

Clearly, the creative advertising team was on a very high dosage of narcotics when they came up with/agreed to make that ad.

Looks like PSP2 or PSPhone is going to get some on-the-go network stuff. 
 
They covered that on the Bombcast already. 
 
Anyways, Sony always does the weirdest things to show a feature or console. Look at all those weird European ads.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT! I know the first guy in this video, He went to high school with me! 
What a small ass world! 
 
Anyway, I'm going to go and beat him up for being in this advert and also to steal the money he was paid for doing it as well. 
 
This's just weird.

This tells me nothing on how awesome the console actually is. They have a great handheld her and they are wasting their time with these types of commercials.

After watching this video I'm still not sure if they were trying to get people interested in their product, or trying to drive them away....

I don't know which is more of a mystery, the fact that the Sony advertising team thought this was anything more than ironically amusing, or that the actors so readily sacrificed their dignity to be a part of it.

So... The PSP2 is made of a thin sheet of ectoplasm I can swing around and make hipsters hit their heads on a bus? I swear I saw pictures of a thing with buttons and analogue sticks. Must have been a prototype.

wait... they don't even show it? that's pretty bad, I didn't like this it made me feel less pumped about it now.... I got trophies and tilting from it (which trophies yay, tilting meh). I'll still buy one after a price drop or after I see some reviews of it.

In 10 years we will all look back on this and somehow it will look even more retarded than it does now.
