Microsoft marketing push for Xbox One has started
- Thread starter statham
- Start date
I know the middle one is downtown LA, if I'm not mistaken there's a target in that Mall as well. In fact, it's where I picked up my Wii way back then.

Ad isn't working. Albert have them take it down.
At least two of them are from around West LA and Hollywood.

Why is it every time I see an Xbox One ad, I want it less and less. I mean, I'll prob buy one when they drop Kinect, or drop the price at least, but I don't know what it is about MS' ads that just put me off.
The Sugerhill or Sir Mix a lot version?

shop out the O and replace it with a polygonal tire.
Sounds like its doing its job!
They've spent what, $3 billion already? $100 million just on the controller? God knows how much they have set aside for advertising, gaming sites, magazines, launch patties, events etc. Bet Xbox One ads are slapped all over the major gaming sites.
On a side note, Microsoft you should have hired me. Visually and graphically those ads are just not that appealing.

The most generous console launch.
Man, I can't believe ads are already gearing up. Gonna be a hype November. I can't even imagine the carnage of this year's black Friday. Isn't every black Friday bigger than the last? Oh boy.
Hey, man. I'm pumped for Derek.

Maybe it's the green?
I thought so too, but I didn't mind the green the 360. Maybe they're overusing it? It just looks unappealing, perhaps it's something else. Too plain? Maybe it's the box. I don't know, it sounds weird but there's just something about. It's weird too since I love the way the actual Xbox One retail box looks. Maybe it IS the green they chose.

Isn't Porsche excluded in Forza 5? If so, that placement is hilarious.
'Jump. Jump right-fucking-now or Kinect won't let you finish your game. That's right, bitch. Jump for me.'
...
Jump Off.
I actually quite like the design of the console lol. It's too large, but I like the minimalist, sleek, linear, modern fused with retro look.

Lol you really cannot make this stuff up....
I guess you could say that. The marketing has definitely got me going. A new console generation has officially started, please leave to me to relish in the hype.
Perfect.

Not bad. Nothing special, but I do really like "Jump Ahead."
Ok, "If it were any more real, it would be real." is fucking awful. :lol

I think there is one big mistake in the marketing: if that is the style they are going for the Xbone package should also feature that same green instead of being entirely black.
And... the brain washing begins... That's Advertising. Wonder when Sony will start their brain washing campaign.
