It may sound sadistic, but my favorite was the scene in which the youngest Spartan is beheaded by the horse rider, and the father absolutely loses it. To me it shows just how death can affect anyone, even if they are battle-hardened like the Spartan Father. His anguish was so great that he broke rank, something a Spartan never did, and attacked anyone that resembled a Persian Warrior. It was a very powerful and moving scene.

Actually, if you look at the Simon figure in the package on the right, you can tell that the edges and coloring is more sharp and exact. Perhaps the larger picture of just the figure is a test mockup, and not the final design?

I can see why people are getting overly worked up about the ad, but honestly, its not bad or racist at all. Sure, a white person and a black person clashing. That's not racist by itself. It really is clever marketing, actually. The two races standing for their respective colors of PSP is artistically appealing to me. It only becomes a problem when someone cries "racism!" and forces it into the public eye as a problem. Let's be reasonable here: If the white PSP came first, and this ad said "Playstation Portable Black is Coming," and depicted a black person grabbing a white person's chin, it would be hailed as some sort of "black empowerment movement" or some such nonsense. My point is that the ad itself is not racist in any way, it is the people that are worried about "offending someone" that make it seem racist.
