JP PSU TV commercial

[EspioKaos]

Courtesy of Jeux-France, we have a stream of the first 15 second Japanese TV commercial for PSU. You can view it here (http://www.jeux-france.com/downloads6224_win1_pub-phantasy-star-universe.html). The voiceover is saying, "It is impossible for us to escape the fighting."

EDIT: Fixed the translation. I misunderstood the word "nogareru" which means "to escape" as "nobareru" which means "to discover" and didn't notice the negative at the end until now. It's fixed now, though, with the correct translation.

I wonder about the meaning of that planet/moon exploding and the crying girl. Think it's just a symbol for war and drama?

Probably so. When I first saw it, I immediately related the girl to Mirei who is supposed to represent peace and prosperity as the Divine Maiden of Gurhal.

Woah odd comecial xD but i had to open it in VLC, anything else would crash when Trying to play it... so i had to go into the source code and get the URL and its from SEGA so its probably on the official site somewhere

[Inu_Shadi]

I hope I'm not the only one who found a special kind of comedy in how she said, "SEGA!"

The moon that explodes in the background is probably the moon of planet Moatoob.

Moatoob was once a lush, green planet with abundant water sources. During the war, however, the moon that once orbited the planet was destroyed resulting in the gravitational balance it once had with Moatoob to be thrown off. The oceans soon began to ebb and drought spread transforming the planet into a vast desert.

"It is impossible for us to escape the fighting." is a perfect quote for that moment IMO.

OOOOOOOoooooo

That girl was from earth and is telekenetic she just bought PSU after waiting 3 years for it and found out it sucks.....

That's why the moon is imploding.

[Emrald]

LOL I love thta Fleece

I think that the moon exploded because what else could explode? A shoe?

[PrinceBrightstar]

Who says that was a moon?

What if the seed is nothing new in that sector of the galaxy and the seed have already destroyed thousands of worlds?

[Fleece]

that was the weirdest commercial I ever seen. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif

makes the FFXII Potion japanese commercial look like an award-winning masterpiece. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

and imagine HOW MUCH money it took to make that commercial???? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif

their advertising division needs some serious creativity lessons. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif

[tank1]

Most....boring....advert.....EVER! But thanks for sharing.

[Nisshoku]

The funny thing Espio, is that I had found that exact same commercial about five days ago. XD

[PrinceBrightstar]

Actually, phantasy star has always had weird commercials. Here the commercials for the original series. (Subtitles included of course)

I love ads from the 80's ^_^ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40IR--uQ2Sc&search=zelda

[Saner]

well the classic Phantasy Star commercials were better done in some ways. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif
but anyways this is just the first 15 second PSU commercial,

they will have better and longer commercials later on that focus more on the actual game than some young actress hogging most of the spotlight, right? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Lol Dreamcast/Phone intercourse you dont get that in many ads.

[Saner]

that isn't odd. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

at least that shows oodles and oodles of actual gameplay than some person who isn't even in the game weeping their heart out. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif

[Saner]

oh ya!!!!! the grass assassins from the classic games. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

lol. in the final game they didnt show up until like I think Cave 2.

[DrewSeleski]

No they were there in Cave 1 unless they changed that in the plus version

[Saner]

oh right. ya I remember now. cave the red floor.

the floor after that was blue. oh ya. yup. cave 1. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

[Inazuma]

[A2K]

I can't get this to work. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

[Fleece]

Wow......Brings a new meaning to "Phone Sex"

[zandra117]

Well, remember this is a PS2 commercial. PS2 commercials are almost always strange and hardly have any gameplay in them.
