View Full Version : German Wii advert takes the pee out of Sony
Check out the following advert for SEGA's Wii version of Ghost Squad. They seem to be having a bit of a laugh at Sony's expense as evident from the Resistance: Fall of Mandy caption.

Here's a German advert for SEGA's Wii version of Ghost Squad. They are cleverly referencing a Sony product. It might be ironic. It might be really slagging Sony off. It might just be a joke now that Sony and SEGA are friends. Can't really tell as it's all in German.

Sega made a few parodys on popular Games (especially shooters) in form of print media adverts for Ghost Squad.

How is this Nintendo's fault? Sega is making the advertisements...

Oh get over it, its a light gun game and no doubt will be far more entertaining to is target audience than RFoM, GoW or just about any other shooter out there. I'm looking forward to it myself..multiplayer light gun games arent ment to be deep..they are ment to be fun and this one seems to have that in spades.

He's though. And sure light-gun shooters can be fun, a good example is Umbrella Chronicles. A bad example is Ghost Squad. Have you seen these reviews. You'd be better off sending me $50.
