Syzygy kory Oh, it’s real. The PS3 initially had very experimental advertising outside of Japan/USA, I remember it well and how fast they dropped it (because they didn’t need more bad press in the era of $600 USD).
fridgeboy yeso I’m still trying to figure this out. Is this a fart joke? A penis pump joke? A blowjob joke? ALL THREE?
Punzai yeso This looks like one of the ads Sega did in conjunction with Viz (a very popular U.K. comic for adults/teenagers that riffed on British kids comics) Pump, quack etc were slang for farts…
kory Syzygy the fact that this made it through conception, pitching, writing, planning, pre-production, casting, filming, post-production, airing, and god knows how many other steps in between that involved actual humans is completely baffling to me
fridgeboy kory Lurker…or just… one of us?! it’s me I’m John Oliver. Can’t you tell by the accent of my font?
