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
Lol yeah. I now want to play the game too.
mom*
this is the commercial I saw last night
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKkPFDEiC6Q
I like how one mom thinks it'll make people go insane.
They hired some pretty good actresses there
Those are real moms yo
Oh I'm sure they've all had kids
That makes them moms.
doesn't make them not actresses
I got nothing.
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).Quote:

It's a terrible fucking ad campaign. Seriously. it's fucking awful.
I still live with my mom so... Maybe if you weren't so old you'd think it's a nice ad campaign too.
Okay mom.Quote:

come on mom why can't i have my own opinion
GOD YOU RUIN EVERYTHING
I HATE YOU
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.Quote:

once they say 'dead space' you already know it's a spacecraft full of violent unspeakable horrors the moms are completely irrelevant
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.
You're reading gwahir's autobiography?Quote:

No, I didn't come out of the closet nearly that early, and I never had drug-laden fun :(Quote:
