This PlayStation All-Stars Commercial Is Really Weird
Posted by Sammy Barker
What?
If you thought the European advertisement for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale was strange, then wait until you watch this North American alternative. It’s been produced by the Robot Chicken team, and shows some of the game’s characters chilling out in a company break room.
Unfortunately, while it tries really hard, it isn't even remotely funny. Sony’s done a terrible job of promoting this game, which is a shame, because it’s excellent.

iguess it represents well the humour of the game. bland
at least all-star is playing pretty well. just leave aside the story and ugly menus and youre up for some neat gaming time

@Samholy I think there's humour in the game's actual gameplay, and I think the rival cut-scenes are very funny. But I agree, some of the presentation — the menus especially — is awful.

Sammy, you're crazy, and this ad is quite funny. I guess Robot Chicken can't possibly appeal to everybody, though...and it IS a thoroughly American creation, to boot.

C'mon, I'd also be horrified if I saw a big, walking burlap sack.
