Do YOU think its appropriate?

I.. do not.
The play boy logo leads me to believe it will only be publicly published in adult reading material.



If it is released publicly every where it'll a Sweden exclusiveToungue
I have no issue with nudity, but it is inappropriate for some of our members, even if it's faux nudity.

I personally didn't know that thumbs grew down there Smile

oh thanks, so relieved, thought I was the only one who thought they didn't grow down there. That's a load of my mind.

Toungue

i would hate for that guy to thumb his nose at me  Smile

gives a whole new meaning to 'thumbs up' Smile

okay i'm done with the bad puns
Oh God... what the ****? I don't see how that says "go buy a PS3".
So what is where his thumb used to be >_>

I don't think its innapropriate, its just stupid
Maybe the ad is to do just what it's done...get people talking about it related to the PS3. Maybe Sony knew what it was doing all along?
Thats not making me buy it..
It doesn't really make me want to talk all that much about it or the PS3 and instead just makes me hate the PS3 ads even more. :l
I'd rather just never discuss this ad's existence ever again.
Oh kindrik, I bet you shower in blue jean shorts... Anyhoo, it's the crazy ads that people remember and this is crazy, and so is the one that D4rk showed with the youtube clip. I'd never seen that one before, but it did make an impression...rather it be good or bad.

Exactly. All this does is make me question their sanity. From penis-thumbs, to rolling eggs, their ads just don't make sense.

I think the folks with the best commericals so far are Microsoft. Their water balloon fight to demonstrate XBL was pretty smart. At least smarter than penis-thumbs.

Why would Sony want to be remembered for having crazy and inappropriate ads? Why not be remembered for having great games, a fantastic system, plenty of exclusive titles, and an outstanding online service? Instead we get to remember what?

Penis-thumbs.

No, I'd just rather not have image of another man's penis put into my head, real or not. And ditto on everything Ricky said as well.

That ad was just disturbing... I would freak the f*** out if I woke up and a thumb had replaced my penis... terrifying...

Agree with you there. "Buy a PS3, and your Penis will be exchanged for a thumb!"
Agree with Ricky too ;p.

tell me what I did then

Hopefully Sony doesn't try to 'improve' on this picture anymore to see if it will sell better. Next thing Sony will own project runway..

...what exactly is the appeal of the picture or the video ad? honestly, it would have made me ignore the ps2 and ps3. why would i want a game system that advertises itself with a penis-thumb? yeah, i'd talk about the ps2/3 when i saw it, but i'd talk about them in disgust "did you see that stupid ad playstation put out recently? i'll avoid the company of penis-thumbs, thank you."
