This is Living

"This is living."

Apparently, the official slogan for the PS3 Europe has been revealed recently in the Leipzig Games Convention along with a line-up of updated trailers. A Sony Computer Entertainment Europe representative has confirmed that it is the final European slogan for the PS3.

The rep, however, could not confirm if the same "This is living" statement would be used in UK, Japan and in North America, so we have no choice but wait for more info. So what do you think of the slogan? Do you think it suits the PS3 well or do you think that the slogan should be changed? Would you want the same slogan to be used in other countries? Think out loud in the comments section.

Ehem, Xbox live - This is living? Those two would fit.

The diffrence between the bold and bumpy slogan and the Playstation 3 spiderman font dont fit.

I enjoy the old ones, you know where "Everything " can happen

The slogan is good but its sounds the same compared to their last slogan ( live in your and play in our). They just shrinked it to three words

Also the font has a goofy/grafity look to it, sort like what you'd see in places close to beach and geared more toward surfers.

They need to change the font, make it furturistic/urban/modern. After all, the ps3 lifetime is for 10 years so might as well give it a futureistic look

i like it. it makes sense, it has a broad appeal because it has nothing to do with tech.
to amed, i think for what they want achieve this font isfits, like i said because it has nothing to do with tech. their old slogans were very nerdish and only covered the "play" factor. Now they make clear that this thing is not only for games, but for all stuff which is entertaining.

Why does everyone give a ***** about the fonts, its only the spiderman font..wow big deal it looks good on the ps3. i bet if they changed it to a different font everyone would complain as it would look different. just stop being a ass. Its only because you thick *****es have noticed a font from a movie.. what about if the 360 font was in batman.. u would all take a fit.

 » poor slogan

but who cares, I'm not buying it for the slogan :S
and I suppose hard core gamers won't be "too happy" with the slogan anyway, I mean, they got us, they know we won't stop buying their games, the slogan is for the 90% people who doesn't play video games or play only a little.

Where did they pick up the idea for the font ,
on a can of Campbell Tomato Soup ?
First the Batarang controller that looked like a Klingon weapon , and now this slogan that could be from a 50`s Yoghurt commercial.

...what are they smoking ? Man.

Guess this backs up the statement, "Life Sucks."
I'ma go slit my wrists now.

weight watchers have a similar slogan if i remember right. 'This is really living' or some such. Maybe there's a connection with the bulging ps3 shell design?

well sure if sony wants a really *****ing stupid and gay slogan they could use that. or they could use something a bit better, and use a sick font that resembles the playstaion 3 font.

This is... a joke right?

Worst slogan ever... and the typo also adds up to the overall ackwardness of the 3rd playstation...

How about

Playstation 3 : please buy it before we go bankrupt !



The hell with next gen consoles ! Whatever happened to simply having fun with the buddies NEXT TO YOU (that's for you X360) and not jumping around like a monkey (f**k the wii too) and how about a f***ing decent price (ps3 sucks joysticks for a "living")...

Where can you buy a neo-geo nowadays??? Nowhere, coz' it's free for your own personal emulation ; -)

 » not bad slogan...

but I dont understand why they always have to seperate the UK from the rest of europe, it isnt even the biggest country in europe, it doesnt have more power than any of the other big countries and it is not special in any way... it is part of europe and even EU... I just dont get it

   by sdsd (Unregistered) - 2006-09-01
