Its odd that the PSP sales didnt make the list this time. Especially sicne it was such a big deal, selling nearly the rest of list combined.

@ European readers
do these ads make sense to you, because all of the Sony European ads that joystiq has posted the past couple of years have just been retarded IMO

I don't watch a great deal of TV but even if i did i'd find that advert equally as retarded, if not perhaps even more, than you. Yeah, that advert's quite failurific.

Where's The Frisbee(TM)?

We Tango Ferociously

So the point of the advert is... buy a PSP and your moronic girlfriend will give you freakish facial deformities using cheap-looking CGI?

Sony's marketing division seems to have mistaken Europe for some kind of strange fantasy land where nothing has to make sense and everyone is willing to pay twice as much for everything.
