I keep seeing these Playstation ads on telly. They’re really clever and well constructed, but there’s one problem with them… this stuff has never happened on PlayStation.

Which is a shame, because it would be fun to play if it was. Is this slightly a trades description violation?

Isn't it obvious that Falco Lombardi is actually a parrot?

Haha, honestly, you’re not wrong. Sony’s ads always make it look like your living room is about to turn into a Hollywood blockbuster, and then you boot up the console and… well, it’s still just you on the couch with a controller. 😂
But you know what actually does deliver that over‑the‑top cinematic experience without the false advertising? A good streaming platform. Seriously, sometimes I just kick back, throw on a movie that feels exactly like one of those epic PlayStation trailers, and it’s way more relaxing than waiting for Sony to make a game where Falco Lombardi finally admits he’s a parrot. Just saying. 🦜🍿

These are, in my opinion, a calculated level of equal parts weird, obtuse, vague, and nothingburgery to avoid actually making any claims about what a PS5 is, does, could do, or looks like. They don't say anything, or make any connections to games, capabilities or hardware. There are no phrases, no recognisable characters, no implications of gameplay... I think these are cleverly pointless advertisements.
