Life in Push Square Towers revolves around sifting through the shite in press releases and proof reading dozens of articles a day, so we're definitely jealous of this particular PlayStation 4 player's daily routine. Sony's new European TV ad is absolutely crammed with brand references, with everything from Street Fighter V to Horizon: Zero Dawn putting in an appearance.
The clip's designed to showcase both the breadth of software on the new-gen system, as well as many of its features and functionality. It's a bit cringe-worthy with all of the dance moves and stuff, but we like how many Easter eggs are stuffed in here. Also, ending on No Man's Sky – the pressure's really being piled on Hello Games, isn't it?

Guile and Balrog confirmed for Street Fighter V?
Love Sony's crazier adverts!
I love that word. Has a nice ring to it.
@Stevie85 Please watch the language -Tasuki-
I think this one is pretty terrific. I for one ador the horror baby ads, but this one struck a nice middle ground between informative, fun for "the players" and appealing to the masses.
@Kidfried Spot on. I think that's exactly what they were going for!
I didn't like it........ I loved it!!!
The best advert I can remember was the coffin shooting through the sky.
"Go" is also a pretty good song to accompany the trailer, as they used the same song during their fantastic E3 conference this year. (And because 'Go' reminds me of the terrible PSPgo and The Chemical Brothers remind me of that fantastic WipeOut soundtrack.)
@themcnoisy Do you mean that banned Xbox advert where a baby is jettisoned into being, flies through the sky getting older and older until it lands in a coffin?
Because yes, that was a pretty amazing advert.
@Kidfried I love that song. I felt like I just had to have it once I heard it.
Why can't America get ads like this? The last good ones I remember were the Kevin Butler ads.
@Quintumply found it!!!

Everyone this is a must watch - honestly its brilliant. Banned due to the overall message - but would probably be okay today.
I was expecting something like the Michael as from a few years ago that was a bit lame imo
@themcnoisy A classic.
Yeh, this ad is way better than I expected. Love the Rocket League cars at the end.
Ends with PC footage of No Man's Sky
"We Wished Our PS4 Life Was This Wonderful"
Perfect Caption...
