Great Advertising is either funny and creative – or both!

I know it’s classic, but I stumbled upon it and it made me laugh again, it’s brilliant.

Atari 2600 commercial – The Fly (Yars' Revenge, Asteroids, etc., 1982)

>

A real old and dull atari commercial – classic though. As if he is using Project Natal from Xbox!

Grand Theft Auto Coca-Cola commercial HQ

>

Very funny adaptation of the Grand Theft Auto game environment into a commercial. I am not sure whether Rockstar / 2K Games knew about this upfront though…

LEGO Club TV : BrickWorld part1

>

Perhaps not (just) digital gaming, but Lego has an extensive gaming community on their website as well, besides Lego Factory – an interactive application with which you can create your own favourite structures! It’s amazing!

Check the website here http://www.lego.com/en-US/default.aspx

Renault New Megane Coupe Commercial

>

And here is the Renault Megane commercial. The sound is very bad, I think something went wrong uploading the file.

I find it remarkably that there has not been made any use of the spectacular images and video’s that could have been made of the ingame driving experience… use crossover whenever you can – I say…

Gillette Fusion Gamer – Gotta Have It

>

Gilette – the game a man can get!

An interesting fusion of real life and game characters.

I am wondering when Gillette will appear in EA’s Tiger Woods Golf…

Axe and Greystripe launch mobile advertising game on iPhone

Axe and Greystripe launch mobile advertising game on iPhone

Supercool video if you like skateboarding!

Axe USA has launched a free mobile game for iPhone.

Although U have not played it yet myself I doubt whether a skateboard game works on a touchphone. Better to launch it on PSP, DS or PC in my opinion.

The most successful genres on mobile phones are puzzle and platform games.

Carousel: een Cinema 21:9-productie

Carousel: een Cinema 21:9-productie

Quite an impressive visual presentation of Philips Ultra broadscreen televisions.

It’s an interactive 3D-feel film where you can stop to get in-depth information.

Philips makes it possible to watch multiple online channels already. Will this soon integrate gaming & TV? Or will the first step be ‘interactive television’ as in being able to watch Youtube and Internet on your television…?

go check out the interactive film here: www.cinema.philips.com

Red Bull Airrace

>Red Bull Airrace

RedBull’s airrace finally playable online!

I must say the game looks stunning for an ‘online’ game, but the controls are a nightmare. I have never played a game that is so far from playable. It’s cool that you can choose your own plane, but there are even more chances for physics. The developers should play WipeOut fusion and then go back to the writing table to optimize this game.

At Redbull: I am allways available for a free first consult!
