Wouldn't that be a 90 degree turn?
Nothing wrong with excitement. Ads mean the time is drawing near. Them ramping up the ad campaign also means more and more info on the console should be forthcoming.

As much as I'm not a fan of their work, I don't think you understand how popular (and thus expensive) they would be to acquire, just for 100k sales. Sure MS has the money, but it seems like a waste of a ton of money for a market they're generally not interested in.
Haven't seen one yet. Will update if I spot one.

I don't think so lol. The whole ad appears fake. The text look weird and the reflection at the top looks awful. haha

My local Wal-Marts have been pushing the xbone alot harder than the ps4 with little xbone signs by the registers.
Makes sense with all the 180s.

People keep forgetting Sony hired a new ad agency this year, who were responsible for some Google Chrome ads. We have little to no idea how Sony's new marketing push will fare.

Would be amazing
Saw this ad in ESPN and Rolling Stone magazines.
Admittedly, it is a pretty neat proposition for the millions of guys who get really into Fantasy football. You don't have to have multiple screens/games/tabs open all at once, it's all connected under one interface. The drawbacks are that it launches late in the season, and they'll have to do some work to convince these guys that it's worth $500.
Really wish they'd grab support for other fantasy leagues. If they supported ESPN, I'd be all over that come the Sunday after launch.
At ease, soldier. All I said was "lead with"
20/10
Saw this ad in ESPN and Rolling Stone magazines.
Again, yet another thing that makes me wonder what in hell are Microsoft going to offer us in Europe (and in fact, every country in the world apart from america).
We don't give a shit about the NFL, and cable integration is essentially useless here, if it even works at all. Hoping they don't use the same kind of advertising here in the UK, as it'll get them nowhere.
Greatness Awaits

Exactly right. If I were Sony I would work with some company that already does fantasy football and try to create something equivalent for less than what Microsoft paid. But kudos to Microsoft for thinking about something like this. I'm in 7 (you heard me) fantasy leagues right now and that kind of person is rabid. They are likely to spend money because of that. We are a different breed altogether.

In this thread: people do not understand marketing, promotion and advertising.
I really think its clever from a marketing standpoint to 'twist' the previous tagline for their next console.

If you live in Palms in Los Angeles there is an oddly placed mini billboard at Palms and Motor. You'll see it if you are driving east on Palms. I was driving so I couldn't' take a photo of it but here is Google streetview of the prime location next to a dry cleaners and ghetto looking sandwich shop?
Well you must have at least some interest in football. Otherwise that really doesn't make any sense. The ad is lrady out on the web if bags what u were excited for.
yes because you can't be 'hardcore' and like American football.
also I don't see how it would be beings you'd be watching a sports game to see this commercial, I haven't seen it on regular broadcasting.
I still have a hard time believing that the US won't be getting a pack in game. They've done it for EVERY other territory, right?

Oh, don't get me wrong, I know the players, receivers, quarterbacks, linesmen, coaches and even the special teams people, but it's not exactly what I would classify as my favorite sport. I only really enjoy and look forward to watching football around playoff or superbowl time, but this thread alerted me to something going on tonight with football, and so I switched to the channel to see if I saw any Xbox One commercials, and, low and behold, Peyton Manning is playing the defending champs, and I love watching Peyton Manning in action. So here I am, watching football and it isn't even superbowl or playoff time, but what brought me to the game was Xbox One hype.
Would've done the same for the PS4. Truthfact.
