New PS3 ads pop up all over Tokyo train stations
It's not surprising to see Sony placing PS3 advertisements in a place like Shibuya Station for the company has been making the Tokyo metro
station tours for a long time now. Shibuya, a high traffic destination with ties to trendy youth culture, seems to be a plausible locale for such advertisements. IGN's Anoop Gantayat, who took the recent photos of the ads, has translated the slogans and posted them on a
personal blog.
Here's a breakdown of what each one says. The all-caps words represent the over-sized characters in each poster. Clockwise from the top left:
- PS3 Console: "Everyone awakens here."
- MGS4: "Finish the MISSION to completion."
- LBP: "IMAGINATION that's learned from play."
- Blue Shirt Guy: N/A
- Lady Hugging PS3: N/A
- Girl with Blu-ray Disc: "Beauty like a DREAM."
- Guy with Controller: "The PRIDE of exceeding super realism."
It's an interesting campaign to get people to buy PS3s. There was also a PS poster with
Final Fantasy XIII's "Lightning" on it. The slogan on that ad reads: "The COURAGE to seek truth." Check that one out after the break.
