TRY SOMETHING NEW
perhaps if posters posting something in a post something thread were to pretend their post was the first post in a new thread and actually do a bit of a setup, give the post a 'topic name' and not just some random link it would be more acceptable to the PS detractors.
also, shoons, you are the gayest man i know.
now, folowing my own suggestion:
Halo 3 is approaching it's release, and microsoft are pushing their last bid in the multi-million dollar excercise that is their marketing juggernaut in attempt to get unprecedented numbers of market penetration in videogames, nay, all media. Much of this marketing strategy has been your typical cynical "soft drink with our brand name tagged on the label" type stuff, but they have done some interesting things with it.
I missed 3's ARG, but a lot of the ads have been intrigueing and the "Believe" diorama and TV spots are a very cool concept.

I'm pretty impressed with this shit. It seems to me that microsoft has gone all out with this and research on the gameplay itself, making it a science in many respects;

so, does microsoft really need to go this far to make a game they can sell a lot of? are they just pushing as hard as they can to secure the top position? are they aiming for best game ever? Why are they throwing so much money at a game that they could have just cynically pumped out a sequel for and cashed in? Have they actually done this and i am going to be disappointed on september 25th?
also i will weep the sweet joyous tears of an angel if jan james makes a cameo in Halo 3.
