Like Amazon and Walmart before it, we have a new preorder video. I like this one the best.

Media Molecule is a genius when it comes to promoting LBP, I'm telling you, a genius.

I wonder what they'll do when it coems to televised ads. It would have to show off all the aspects of the game, whilst being charming at the same time. While I love the Sackzilla video, I think one that explains the aspects of the game more clearly would probably win over more of the public.

The general public gets bored if ads go into to much detail, so ads need to create a balance between entertainment and information in order to be effective. The ad doesn't have to give out much information, just get the viewer interested. So yeah, I agree with you, they need a really good commercial to win over the people...

Yeah the balance is the most important factor in marketing for LBP. Not just a cutesy platformer not just a physics toy. I'm sure MM and Sony have some great ideas up their sleeves, though!

any video they make for tv or otherwise will be awesome these people know how to get people pumped about a video game. That video was awesome loved it especially that area with the like tunnels and that snake type block zooming through it looked fun to play.
