Play with your eggs: PS3 advert goes subliminal

See? Now, with the SIXAXIS, you can roll, shuffle, and play with your eggs all you want! Now isn't that just absolutely satisfying? Hey, we're not trying to be subliminal here. We're speaking literally! With a PS3 commercial like this, they couldn't have been any more obscure with their message.

In the wake of confusing 1111 ads, creepy possessed baby TV spots, and colorfully explosive commercials, we now have an ad, uploaded by EtienneValencienne in YouTube, that centers on the SIXAXIS and clearly communicates its power. The look and feel of the 30 second ad is pretty much similar to the previous two: clean white room, ominous background music, levitating PS3 in the end...

These guys were able to capture how the SIXAXIS works - the tilt, roll, and pitch functions of its motion-sensing capabilities. And the final (ahem) "stroke" of the controller has the eggs, umm, explode in an interesting climax. Orgasmic indeed.

Decent advert, but all it does is highlight how much Sony copied the Wiimote.

That was *****ing awsome. Definitly didn't expect those birds to come out. I thought they were going to explode and paint the walls or something. Nice one Sony:P

» yeah its old news but

actaully if you want to get technical, sony announced the tilt functions at e3-2005 when kaz stated the controller could work like a steering wheel for racing games. Nintendo announced the Wiimote months later. Its something that seems to get over looked through all this negitive hype and the whole cg target reels, which are matching up nicely so far.
