BLUR - MOCKING MARIO KART COMMERCIAL

[potsiiscool]

Blur is for big boys. Mario Kart is for MEGA MUSHROOM MEN!

[AdeonWriter]

Making fun of MarioKart means you don't understand gamers.

[TheNinwii]

the graphics look more like modnation racers than mario kart. looks like a stupid tv show for 3 year olds

[CaptainAshSpearow]

Uh, have these ad execs ever actually played Mario Kart? Because I once got so angry after failing to make a turn on Banshee Boardwalk that I smashed an empty CD case with my bare hands. It's a lot harder than the colorful graphics make it out to be.

[ar3ceusftw]

i 've never played blur but one thing that i find apealing to me is unlike mario kart you are actually using really cars in real life with a mario kart type of twist. kinda like how the movie deathrace was a rated R version of mario kart on steriods same thing here racing isn't about winning its about making friends shut it pinky roflmfao =)

[crazyone76]

@superluigi4567 i think more games use 3 2 1.....

[ConsoleWarSucks]

What's funny is that Blur sucked ass :D

[spicyd2]

@ConsoleWarSucks OR YOU suck ass

[ConsoleWarSucks]

@spicyd2 Nah!

[spicyd2]

@ConsoleWarSucks YAH!

[atomofish]

Cutie Kart should have been a hidden extra in Blur. Maybe then it would have selled better.

[drifter402]

how is this FUKING WITH MARIO. ITS MOCKING KART RACERS IN GENERAL BUT U STUPID FAN BOYS STILL HAVNT GOT YOUR HEADS OUT YOUR ASSES AND REALISED THAT KART RACERS ARE A GONRER (cant spell it) OF THEIR OWN. ITS MAKING FUN ON THEM IN GENERAL. AND EVEN IF THEY DID SO WHAT

[jackofblades94]

fan boys in sight!

[Vianyte]

Mario Kart is based purely on luck. Blur is based on skill, Fuck Mario Kart.

[TheFlamingDoh2]

@Vianyte Please, Blur can't even be COMPARED to Mario Kart 64.

[TheFlamingDoh2]

I think Sony didn't understand one thing when making this ad, and that is what true gamers prefer, a racing game that is familiar, challenging, has innovative courses and items, and has been popular for years, or a flashy racing game with cool designs.

P.S. I said true gamers because I know a LOT of people who only play games for their graphics and claim that is what makes them gamers.

[abarai2007]

@TheFlamingDoh2 too true, i really despise graphic whores

[mikepentop]

@TheFlamingDoh2 Sony did not make this game dumbass

[TheFlamingDoh2]

@mikepentop Sorry didn't know who made the game at the time. I meant Activision.

[RabbidMonkee]

Why do gamers try so hard to reinforce the image that they are big boys? They just sound insecure if you ask me. Game looks cool though.

[tintinytdj]

GTFO

[Vaquilla92]

The funny part is that BLUR flopped in sales, while Mario Kart Wii has become one of the highest selling games of all time

[andyfireman1]

SHAT ET PANKEH!

[GrounderTheRobot]

Wtf.... Mario Kart doesnt look like that shit. they just want to kill nintendo but... i like both nintendo and sony! eh yeah... sony have cool games and graphics... nintendo is good too! its fun to play MKDS and hack it on Wifi but then if we say about this... THATS AN ATTACK ON NINTNEDO! they ae both good! did nintendo adversite a game ad that says RAEC LAEK A BIG BOI! AWESOME WEE PWS AND KILL POEPLE THEN GORE PARTY!... yes nintendon't this ad is lame

[stevebiddle21]

Race like a big boy= FAIL! but the game is good! XD

[omglolwtfmudkips]

Blur already pwns mario kart.

It's already been proven by science.

[makemeninja]

"Oh Wow" lmao lol

[AntiAntagonizing]

i thought this was mocking mod nation racers...

[vbhalo]

@AntiAntagonizing

GTFO

[minifig701]

no wonder i hate mario kart i used to like it until blur came out

[benjamillion]

they play this shit every two minutes at gamestop

[M1zw1z]

The Blur creators says this ad was not aimed to take the piss out of mario kart

[vbhalo]

@M1zw1z

something tells me the were lieing :P

[M1zw1z]

@vbhalo Yes thats like a toned down version of mario kart.

MArio kart V2.0boring

[vbhalo]

@M1zw1z

no no the tonned it down to take the piss out of it

[pspgamer01]

daav is it about mario kart or modnation racers? or just kart racing games in general?

[daavpuke]

@pspgamer01 Well, let's see what makes sense:

Would Sony ridicule Nintendo on a childish rendition of some of their characters?

Or would they ridicule their own franchise with non-related characters?

Y'all decide.

[WhiteTakumi]

@daavpuke Bizarre Creations made the game. Not Sony. (and was published by Activision Blizzard) At the time the big competition was Mod Nation Racers.

[MRacer001]

@daavpuke activison make blur not sony and yes it was bashing mario kart

[daavpuke]

@MRacer001 True dat, sir, but they did make (or publish on PS3) ModNation Racers as per the question at hand.

[Picklejar75]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA­HAHA HILARIOUS

[micfiends]

if u were smart you would know that this is taking aim at mod nation racers and really has nothing to do with mario kart

[MaxxG0]

lmao

[blanceleve]

how does that look like mario karts ????

[NovaZeroCool]

This is Mario Kart. Sony said it in there E3.

[rockar203]

I dont think its copying mario kart

I think its copying ediccational racing games if they had i think

[kay619rey]

this aint making fun of mario kart. IF mario kart was the first thing u thought of than u thank mario kart looks this retarded

[calebp1000]

I think the pink guy should have a name like pinky bob! lol

[bartonlynch]

"LAME" ha ha ha! Mr. Broccoli wants to race like a man... awesome ad.

[AppleTechCenter]

this is why im getting BLUR for PC

[mrspock3141]

that's not even Mario Karts

[Ldon1234]

I love thiss commercial, it was so clever! But, I will still play Mario Kart over this game.

[Timmieisblack]

LOL, I don't even like this game, but i got it because of this commercial, but I have no regrets

[WhenBordomTakesOver]

@Timmieisblack me too!

[ToxicityFilms]

Race like a big boy...rated 10 and up?! wow, shows you that the average kid plays games that are higher,...rated.

[Redknight345]

The border between the nintendo wii and the Xbox 360/ps3

[emarrodz]

It may be funny, but the message is not as I don't require any company to tell me what games would make me a "grown up"

[DrunkenGoon]

I love this commercial.. I thought it was hilarious. 

[2222do]

Poor Pinky, lol.

[yaktr12]

YEA PLAYING GAMES IS NOT ABOUT HAVING FUN ITS ABOUT LOOK TOUGH!

[daniel082979]

This commercial is all about the loss of childhood innocence.

[TotalDramaPrincess1]

racing's not about winning, it's about making friends!

*punch*

haha

cracks me up everytime :DD

[dragonx748]

" racings not about winning, it's about making friends!" (PAWNCH) "uggghh" "shut it pinky!"

[athropos]

Blur owns. Mario Kart is nothing but rubberbanding.

[ThatIncredibleJordan]

@athropos blur is such a huge rip off of mario kart its not even funny. they basically took mario kart and made it "edgy" and "hardcore" get the fuck outta here

[athropos]

@ThatIncredibleJordan

It's the same concept, but it actually delivers on gameplay and AI. Your blind fanboyism is making you miss out on a pretty darn good game.

[ThatIncredibleJordan]

@athropos i calls em like I see em but I played the demo and its good but just screams mario kart

[jookh]

blur race like a big boy

rated 3+

lol

[MrLuckkster]

@jookh 7+!!!!!

:P

[freekhenstra]

Mario Kart is about hitting people with flying spiked exploding turtle shells, pushing eachother into lava with giant bullets, crushing others by becoming giant, throwing lightningbolts, using squids to blind people with ink and causing others to fall off a rainbow millions of feet high. Mario Kart is not about making friends, I don't see how this mocks Mario Kart.

[JoelOfFinland]

"shut it pinkey" :DD

[UzumakiItachi675]

people pay to watch tv not commercials but oh god i dont mind paying to watch this comercial

[sevren777]

weak attempt at mocking the most successful racing franchise ever. oh well, at least activision's goldeneye remake for the wii is looking great!

[MrLuckkster]

@sevren777 But still it's funny =D

[keyralover1914]

@sevren777 Not it doesn't? it looks like shit

[Andre0Salgado]

@sevren777 the graphics look like shit

[Burak119]

Blur sucks with power ups it's fucked up they must make the game with no power ups just racing normal. Like grand trusimo

[jose121495]

@Burak119 then what would be the point? There's already tons of games like that. Blur just makes it a little different.

[coolmsky15]

lol activision shut the fuck up and go back to making Cod

no one gives a shit bout ure anti Nintendo ideas

[MachXX2]

Hey Blur, DON'T FUCK WITH MARIO KART! You'll never be in their league!

[Tr0llsNeverDie]

@MachXX2 you're arguing with a video game? How fucking pathetic.

[MrLuckkster]

@MachXX2 Wtf? go play mario kart litlle kiddo ;)

[MachXX2]

@MrLuckkster Blur is shit. If you want realism you go with Forza or Granturismo, if you want crazy shit to go down you play Mario Kart. No one will want Blur with its retarded physics engine, and lame-ass powerups.

[MrLuckkster]

@MachXX2 Okay you think it's shit but hust go play your game's right? or maby you can buy a nice Wii game =D good for you ;)

[jess042992]

@MachXX2

'if you want realism you go with' real life racing. ha.

[MrLeorazo]

@MachXX2 This commercial with the cute kart game also resembles MK in no way,Mario Kart is not about friends,but is this game worth a buy?

[MachXX2]

@MrLeorazo I didn't buy it because racing games have two genres. At one end of the spectrum you have realism games like Forza and Granturismo, and at the other end you have bash em ups like Mario Kart. Trying to fit in the middle never really goes well.

[Dlr64]

@MachXX2 GT and Forza are more single player Mario kart is more of a party game

[Hieroglyphics4Life]

@MachXX2 actually it works real and thats exactly what i love bout it, the mix. But its all taste so no use in arguin

[PoppycockGaming]

@MachXX2 blur rapes mario kart in the ass with no lube

[Psipunisher]

@MachXX2 yap cause the nintendo friend code is more cool isnt? gamertag or psn its better!!!!! Wii gamers will never really know what is next gen games!!!!!! (and i have a wii.....so...)

[cordell1999]

@MachXX2 aleatst it wasnt f-zero they would get falcon paunched

[ReasonForNo]

@MachXX2 F-zero is way better than mario kart, and even that is nintendo

[MachXX2]

@ReasonForNo Did you say F-Zero? Are you being ironic, or are you just that tasteless.

[ReasonForNo]

@MachXX2 how is F zero GX tasteless? crazy cast of characters, one of the few racers to do the future racing theme amazingly well, and it has every element in it you could need while still requiring the expert level of skill.

I dont a party game in my racer, that ruins it for me, and I love scifi used in ways other than military and guns, I can attack other racers, boost and die from over boost, its also the fastest racing game around STILL.

[empororofultra34]

@MachXX2 And as for you, don't be such a butthurt fanbrat.

[MrZizbang]

@MachXX2 shut up pinky!

[GreenGearMood]

"Friendship is dumb! And should be hated! Be an asshole who makes the niceties in life meaningless! Be a jerk! DO IT. DO IT, FAGGOT. That's what it is to be COOOOOOOL!"

[MsLolipops123]

Lmaoooo this commerical is kinda my lifee

[maddicali]

i thought in the begining that blur was the game in the begining.LOL :)

[zxmuffinszx]

@maddicali hahaha that's what i thought and then when i figured it out im like......wow im such a dumb*ss lol.

[marfiqueahmed]

thid didnt say anything about violence. still. awseome that he puched tinky.

[CAVideoProductions]

Shut it, pinky!

[Sp1kfreak]

Split/Second > Blur

[zxmuffinszx]

@Sp1kfreak wrong!!! blur owns split/second

[Sp1kfreak]

@zxmuffinszx Nu-uh! D:

[OmgItsAmbrose]

They chose the wrong game to disgrace. Cause Mario Kart owns.

[CardDude101]

@OmgItsAmbrose ha! how old are you? 7?

[OmgItsAmbrose]

@CardDude101 from looking at your videos in your channel, it looks like you are the one that's 7. Kid, get your driver's license first before you talk to me. And why would mario kart have so many sequels, if its not good?

[LedZ1995]

@CardDude101 dude just shut up, and grow up too. God i just hate little kids trolling on youtube.

[blakwidow737]

I like Mario kart too but this commercial is still really funny XD I will forever remember this and yes racing is all about winning and glory not making friends

[CadcCNC]

I don't respect companies trying to hype their game at the expense of others

lost 1 sale here

[Kablammer4]

It would have been better if they made the game without the powerups.

[riltin]

Funny, but to me it felt like they were dissing Mario Cart in favor of whatever their craptastic game is.

[DrSloer]

LMAO

[wwwgxtv8mcom]

Man love it

[rockthebass7893]

i have no idea what you guys are talking about, this commercial made me pee my pants laughing. (not literally). i love mario kart and all but this commercial didn't offend me in any way. and i thought "race like a big boy" was a good tag line, seeing as mario kart seems like a tiny tots game... regardless of the age group that actually plays it.

[XXMLJXX]

race like a big boy

[936luky]

whoa whoa didi the little green nigga just hit the big fat guy shit man i like the commercial but i hate it when it says "race like a big boy" nigga is he talkin about a fucking boner or somthin??? O.o

[HeteroBubblez]

@936luky

He Is Talking About Dicks.

Big Boy = Big Dick

Implying That Mario Kart Is For Kids

Kid = Little Dicks

xD

[ashurathesadxhacker]

HAY MARIO KART IS AWESOME and so is BLUR XD

[WrestlingGuyWWE]

Fuck this game for insulting Mario Kart!!!

[Landonio1]

This commercial is so stupid.

[ReisenMell]

HA-HA.

One of the more correct examples of name-calling in the commercialism industry. This ad convinces me ever so slightly to check it Blur, but sadly, no.

[XFailamanjaorX]

LOL! I'd be happier if a car went hurdling the pink dino-thing.

[rronrro13]

dat pink guy is from bublebuble

[crazybug925]

wow that is freaky imagine  a kid watched that and the kid punches his mom and dad

[m3phisto666]

People WTF, stop crying about coercion 'n shit... First off, it's a commercial of course it's trying to coerce you... But more important, are you really that stupid that you'll base your purchases on commercials? I personally like to base them on actual reviews and gameplay experience... This is just a funny commercial, I'm not going to buy the game based on this commercial, but since I got a sneak peak of what it's about... It seems kinda cool and I might check it out...

[pokemon488]

why would they have a cute little racing place next to a deadly racing place?

[jchardy316]

Blur is a ripoff of Mario Kart? Like the concept of racing was invented by Mario Kart.  Ever hear of Pole Position? and even before that Night Driver? Sheesh I had a handheld game called Digital Derby.

[jchardy316]

This commercial is hilarious! It's about coercion? Uh, hello? show me a commercial that's not.??? How did the pink guy get off his kart and behind the tree? Uh, it's a commercial? How did the main character get off his kart and walk up to the fence? sheesh, people ....

[tarheelfan522]

look at the bubbles! hahahahahaha

[boyzinyourclub]

lmao pinky

[pacnit]

@darkfuse1 he cant run fast cause ges fat though hahaha

[uberhaxor69]

sigh...it makes it seem like if u dont buy this game you have a small dick intense coercion

[mardfet]

*Punch* "SHUT IT PINKY!!" Lol

[64supermarioreturns]

Mario Kart isn't about making friends, it's about owning people with red shells

[PrinceStryker]

great commercial...takes the piss out of Nintendo so brilliantly !!

[8bitJoker]

Blur? The fuck is this shit? Fuckin newcomer bitch game trying to act like it has a chance against Mario Kart AKA the legendary classic series. The big boys play Mario Kart. Old school badass shit since 92.

[DragonNexus]

@8bitJoker

Wow.....a nintendo gansta.

Didn't know they existed.

[darkfuse1]

@8bitJoker shut the hell up an race like a big boy lol

[killamonkey335]

that pink guy is fat and somehow hid behind that tree??? and i always laugh when i see the commercial........"Shut it, pinky" LFMAO

[thebobertone]

What the heck? The dude is like a pink jello/brocolli.



[june2206brock]

I love it

[mrfrelancekiller]

I think this may be the best commercial of all time

[Gowiiandpenguins]

For some reason, the pink guy reminds me of that thing from Bubble Bobble

[cougarfighting]

probably the best game commercial ive seen in a long time.

[1111Johny]

i think this is the commercial to show people the new feature of Mario Kart

"you can now punch other racers!"

now i want to play Mario kart

[Aano5ler]

@1111Johny

You already could in DD

[longtran927]

I actually enjoyed playing Blur. That said, I'll take Mario Kart over the game any day of the week.  :)

[uglypornstar]

this commercial is 1 of the most original commercials ever! Thumbs up if you guys agree!

[1DJKoopa1]

Mario Kart racing? About making friends? That's a load of crap.

Anyone who played Mario Kart Wii online, or on 150cc knows it's a damn WAR winning the races.

[Axelhander]

Blur does Mario Kart better than Mario Kart. Thoughtful, non-random, multi-use weapons. No rubberbanding. No overadundant drifting or snaking. It's a better game than any Mario Kart, and I've played them all.

[DBsantos77]

Greatest commercial I have seen in a while.

[smitherswhoisthatman]

this is hardly fair..... at least mario cart admits its an arcade game, it doesnt dress up and pretend to be a racing game like blur does. theyre basically saying play the same game with cooler graphics. That said ,it looks pretty sick.

[HippoKissez]

I'd rather race as the cute little things in the karts...

[FuturamaCorey97]

shut up pinky xD

[TheCirnoFairyOfDeath]

guys i think it ISNT making fun of mario kart but i think this is what goes on in toads mind after oh what....the 1000th race.

[GRINDKINGBOARDS]

hahahahahaha SHUT IT PINKY!!!!!!

[MegaAwesome13]

SHUT IT PINKY!

[TheDanteEX]

I don't wanna "race like a big boy", I wanna race in a fun game.

[Axelhander]

@TheDanteEX You're in luck: Blur is exactly that. And also better in every way.

[DrAqua2Fresh]

Lol, poor Pinky.

[PixieDust19962]

That wasn't very nice to do to Pinky... :((

[charlessin15]

best commercial ever

[pulmonq2]

This commercial is funny but it annoys me. As a potential consumer, they lost me at "race like a big boy". I hate attempts at coercion.

[GrinderMan5000]

haven't seen this one yet this has extetended ending of pinky pwning. lol SHUT IT PINKY! reminds me of in napolean dynamite when he says EAT THE HAM TINNA!!

[CAGE1498]

it's hilarious!

[standinstann]

this is one funny ass commercial. But i don't see (from a marketing point of view) how alienating Mario Kart players is going to get them to buy this game.

[Joemamma69000]

if Mario Kart had those kinds of cars (as in option Karts Cars Bikes Etc) i would play it EVERYDAY lol
