    Default Dead Space 2 Ads; Your Mum Will Hate It

    Best ad campaign I've seen in a long time. Not only has it made me want to buy the game, but it made me laugh my ass off while watching the responses the mothers have on youtube.



    "this isn't a game its a dangerous, mind numbing, mind altering, demonic weapon"
    lol some people

    prince of persia is more skill than hack and slash
    ShitFace says:
    i dont think skill is a genre of game lol
    Andy says:
    of course it is you have seen the crystal maze havnt you?
    he says what next a skill physical mental?

    How hard is it to get 10 middle-aged moms to express their actual disgust for DS II?

    I suppose the trick is to get them to cooperate in a commercial for what disgusts them...


    I dunno, I thought the campaign was rather banal actually. I've seen a similar one before.

    Pay them enough. "Over 200 moms" were recruited yet the commercial only features maybe 15 different mothers. Obviously many turned the producers down (or didn't have a unpleasant enough experience).

    I've never seen an ad campaign like this so I thought it was quite nifty.

    I still live with my mom so... Maybe if you weren't so old you'd think it's a nice ad campaign too.

    This is true, it's definitely not what sold me on the game. Dead Space did a good enough job.

    guys, there's something I need to tell you. I'm secretly a 16 dude.

    I mean, I'm not interested in the commercial just because some moms said it was a horrible game. That just got my attention.

    KT, you remind me of an 18 year old guy in this novel I'm reading who gets fucked, takes drugs, and decorates his room with Disney paraphernalia like mouseketeer hats and statuettes of Goofy and Pluto.
