Sony Sauce for your PS3 BBQ, sir? Only in Japan!

LOOOOOOOOL

rofl x 1000000000000000000000000000

And I thought only the rest of the world was poking fun of the PS3... it's honestly surprising (and a hilarious) to see it happen in Japan as well...

No word, yet, on how weak the sauce is.

I want my babyback, babyback, babyback, barbeque sauce!

Fantastic. Refreshing to see some Sony mocking from the Japanese themselves.

Can the sauce be used on HD-steaks or just Blu-meat?

Well, this post (and the comments so far) made my morning.

I own a PS3 and I think this is hilarious.

I would love to get some of this sauce!!

This sauce should just focus on meat and shouldn't try to compete in the fruit industry.

This sauce will NEVER be able to compete with "Apple Sauce".

Nice one Derbeste. :)

i didn't find this that amusing.

@2kings

But I bet some Japanese "Wii lube" would be funny though? Or a "Microsoft Red Ring of Death De-coder Chart" possibly?

It comes in Mild, Hot, and Massive Damage.


Also did anybody else feel like the first flashing advertisement on the top left of that website was hentai? Is that ejaculate on her face?

"But I bet some Japanese "Wii lube" would be funny though?"

..........I'd buy it.

I'd pay even more if it was made with 100% Reggie spit.

Nice, Judd. You obviously are more familiar with this than me. Does the sauce go well with giant enemy crabs?

Teh irony!! XD lololololol

32,
If you use the massive damage flavor with grilled enemy crab weak point, it is pretty good. But in general, it isn't that good with seafood. Better with beef, chicken, and pork.

That's probably because you sense of humor.

^

...because you HAVE NO sense of humor.

Dammit.

The bit in the green banner below SIXAXIS says: "Over 1 million shipped".

Hahahahah! Awesome.

Anybody think it comes with a "Not For Use On A PLAYSTATION 3" warning?

Americans don't like X360 too, "'Sony Sauce for your PS3 BBQ, sir?', we light up a X360 right away"

The sauce might be really good, but you wouldn't know it because there's only one steak that's any good with it...

...and the really good steaks won't be out until 2008.

Also, as I understand it, you can get some chicken with this sauce, but you can't actually use the chicken with this sauce, you have to use a different (albeit less expensive) sauce.

Furthermore, you cannot get the chicken without buying this sauce first.

Is it backwards compatible with other meats besides steak? Will it even work on "cafeteria food"? The next generation of sauce doesn't start until Sony says so!

I'm waiting until the "sauce wars" are decided before choosing my sauce.

This sauce is based on ingredients that actually were made in Ancient Japan.

They totally copied the Nintendo sauce.

Can I use this sauce with Giant Enemy Crabs?

They didn't add the "Shake Well" notice on the bottle until they saw Nintendo do it with their sauce.

Now I'm really considering to buy a PS3...but it still needs that grill I was promised!

The impressive thing is that this sauce allows for real-time entree switching.

This is the funniest Joystiq post I've read. And Kain's SDF post just tops it off. I can just imagine his face getting all red, his pudgy hands trembling as he scrambles to make his post, posting it, and his head then exploding.

Damn Kain, take a chill pill and wash it down with some weak sauce. It's only 599 yen.

It is ironic as well that the sauce just a different label on a sauce that was already out, it just costs more.

The manufacturer claims you can use the sauce on larger pieces of meat, but the meat will magically not cost more and be of same quality, only bigger.

The manufacturer claims it tastes way better than all other sauces. It is the future of sauce.

The sauce is based on real historical Japanese recipes. Like many sauces from its era, it contains giant enemy crap.

I accidentally spelled crap instead of crab, noticed it, but decided to leave it. Somehow it's better that way.

Okay, I got nothin'. You can only beat a dead crab so long before it fades from the screen to open up RAM for other crabs.

@Kain

I tried to follow your links, but they were tagged in a funny way, and I wasn't in the mood to dissect them and enter the URLs manually. Nonetheless, you were gracious enough to supply some out of context quotes for our reading pleasure.
What stand out in these quotes are words like "believe", "predict", and "claim". In terms of an argument, these words really don't do much. Theologists often have problem with this too. Just food for thought.

SDF to the rescue!

Sony sauce = Refrigerate after use.

MS sauce = Refrigerate DURING use.

I'll be horrified if the commercials for this sauce involve a baby drinking it and becoming incredibly creepy.

THIS JUST IN!!!!!!

Sony to announce a new line of pubic-hair shampoo to eliminate giant enemy crabs. Apparently you have to apply the shampoo, wait a little while and eventually the crabs will develop a glowing red spot that you have to attack for massive damage. I'm not familiar with crabs though so perhaps Fred T. or Truth or The Intangible Fred T.ruth Fact can weigh in on this one...

It's Texas Style! Teeexaas Styyyyle!

Did it cost $5.99 us dollars?

38 (Myke) wins this thread

You would need a lot of bottles to marinate the giant enemy crab.

Apparently you forgot to mention the shampoo is called Sony's Brain Wash and Sonys also making new Kool-Aid flavors! :D

Lol.

I have a sinking feeling that Fred T and the 'gang' are actually one of the same.

Ditto for > & Optimus Prime.

Myke, you only have part of the story. Just wait until you see Sony's new dandruff-fighting shampoo, Selsun Blu-Ray. It allows for true high-definition hair care and allows you to wirelessly fight further scalp problems.

sphetr2 wins.

Needs to come to US

I was looking at this thinking "yea this looks funny but it's not THAT funny" but then upon further inspection of the entire label (and you have to be able to read and understand the Japanese writing), it's a very clever play on words that blends irony and sarcasm (which is a rare trait in the Japanese people)!

The writing just under Kutaragi's face says SIXAXIS and to the right of it says "Emmy award winner", which of course refers to Sony announcing that they had been awarded some coveted award from the Technology and Engineering Emmy Awards for their sixaxis controller.
We all know that Sony later retracted their statement when the Emmy people said "uh-uh" and said the award was for their previous dual shock controller.

Now the green label underneath all that says "Over 1 million (PS3) units shipped" and under that it says "but the sauce is Sony".
This in itself is not so funny but it is when you consider that "sauce" in Japanese is pronounced "so-su".
So-su is Sony → Source is Sony.
So the punchline is "there's over 1 million PS3s shipped but the same company that claimed winning an Emmy for their Sixaxis controller is the source of this figure".

I know explaining it kills the humour...

The only problem with this future-proof sauce is that you need to first open the bottle to pour in the upgrade sauce, which takes about eight hours.

Just don't close the bottle cap during this process, or you may irremedialy spoil your sauce!

Yes!

Now not only can I play in 4 dimentions, but i can EAT IN 4D too!!!
