Wow, this Pac-Man puppet show was very well done! I especially love how the puppeteer parodies elements of the original game! If only there were more puppet shows like this...Both adults AND kids could enjoy shows like this.
I love this commercial so much. Maybe it's not an accurate reflection of small-town Mexico, but it comes across as more of an affectionate caricature than a mean-spirited one. The town puppeteer putting on shows for free, how wonderful is that? I want one in my town!
Its mildly offensive. But its also a cute and hilarious ad.
Most Mexicans watching will tell that the ad is not made by Mexicans--or at least not with Mexicans in mind. The biggest clue being that they have the obligatory punchline of mariachis.
its a funny commercial not coded to Mexican humor. Think of when someone is laughing and facing you. It sometimes feels like they're poking fun, even if its not intended.
For an ad misunderstood in the US, google "absolut world mexico." Same thing.
Its legal, but it still sucks, because you're basically paying for an Emulator. Also they have a very small selection of games, don't expect to see any nintendo titles. No kick ass rare Japanese gems like Secret of Mana 2 or Tales of Phantasia or Terranigma.
So you think that a legal emulation service with over 1000 games which keeps on expanding on over 15 different consoles with unlimited access for games and TV shows for $10 with no extra costs is gay? I think Steam and Virtual Console is overrated because you can get most of the same games on these on GT and not pay for each game seperately.
Right on, man. Gametap has a library of so many classics (and new blockbuster games) it's almost a steal paying just $10 a month. In addition, if you sign up for year of service, you pay $59.99 upfront which equals just $5 a month. This is the price of a fast food meal. Easy.
No. If you subscribe for $10 a month or $50 a year then the games still dont cost anyhting. They dont cost anyhting at all with the free version, but you get about 50 games avalbile free at one time. Meaning you cant access the game. And you need to warch the commercals before playing to make up for it if you decide to go free.
That was possibly the most enlightening video I have seen. I live in the mexican ghetto of downtown Los Angeles and there are many families here that will never own a video game console, much less a computer system.
