DJ Max Portable 2 NV Rangers ain't happy with happy couples - Image 1  


How do you spice up the promotion for South Korea's hottest pop music game, DJ Max Portable 2? Not that Pentavision's having any difficulty marketing this hip PSP title. But still, there can never be enough good gimmicks to help out with the marketing, right?

In South Korea, subway advertisements are apparently not hip enough to suit Pentavision's taste. Hence, they unleash their -- er -- Power Rangers. The sentai group was out wreaking marketing havoc throughout Seoul's streets, interacting with people, and basically doing some fantabulous PR stunts like gamely posing for pictures with pedestrians, tourists and whatnots.

Oddly enough, though, the group seemed to enjoy "hassling" couples. Reportedly, the "Rangers" are called NB Rangers in the game and they are all single men. Hmmm... could there be an underlying plot to disturb happy relationships by single men who are unlucky enough to find their own dates, hence they stick together and formed a color-coded group? Do we sense bitterness here? And what's up with their "anti-Xbox 360" warnings?

We'll be sure to investigate for any dodgy subconscious musical messages aboard DJ Max Portable 2.

They're actually called the NB Rangers, but whatever, close enough.
