What was the worst video game advertising campaign?

>>384146309
is that sam hyde?

Marvel vs Capcom Infinite is easily the most recent one, they've shot themselves in the foot at every opportunity.

No, it's from an awful fake viral video Sony put out about 10 years ago, "All I Want for Christmas is PSP"

Bloodvertising
Name your baby turok
drive too fast and let some game dev pick up the ticket for you
fake-protestors

>Viral video
That's 00s as fuck alright.

I think that viral marketing campaign gimmick where the devs got arrested for distributing child porn was pretty bad.

>>384147045

>>384146725

>It has 3 games!

Dragon Quest advertising is near nonexistent in the west, Resident Evil Umbrella Corps, and Dead Rising 4 were so bad they barely if at all advertised them.

This, those squirrels, that billboard with the white lady holding the black lady down. And that PS3 "THIS IS LIVING" campaign. What was Sony's marketing department smoking in the mid-00s.

They hired students from Art schools.

This game stinks.

But above all else, the Sega Saturn

I can't remember whether the creepy baby PS3 ad campaign was ultimately effective or not, but it was fucking stupid in my opinion.

>>384147165
PSP has a pretty terrible track record. Those ghetto nigger squirrels, the "white is coming" billboard.

There was that time on everybody loves Raymond where Ray forgot about Deborah's birthday and had to rip his cock off .

Remember the time Sony decapitated a live goat to advertise a game?

>>384149383
>Nigger squirrels
What?

>>384149751
If you live in a meat eating society surely no one bats an eye to a decapitated goat?
Not like they tortured it for fun.

>Not like they tortured it for fun.
They probably did.

>>384149751
This was confirmed to be fake.

the classic wii music video
but recently the new mass effect campaign felt really forced. it had a huge ad campaign but just put the name into google and all you see is people hating. but if you only saw the ads you'd think it was the greatest thing ever. I understand how some people bought that game.
