IGN Rewind Theater - Weird PlayStation Ad Analysis

[TheBadBuffalo]

why are the two top comments nearly the same

[red13444]

well its past 10-5-11 so what was the release ???

[theClockworkThief]

At 00.39, thats lightnings weapon from ffx 13

[KamalaKerennj41]

lool bin reich aber einsam

[WhorrorPrincess]

So, what happened with this? It's kinda December 9th and I never heard anything more information about this.

[pokblok]

@WhorrorPrincess search to micheal on youtube

[XtremePr0ductions]

Isn't Sweet Tooth playing chess with Sackboy? So that means Twisted Metal got in.

[hyperforce]

The cannon in the back of the weapon rack is not the arc cannon but the WASP rocket launcher from Killzone 3

[jfassettx123]

They just released a extended version of the ad and they have characters in live action form like Solid Snake, Nathan Drake, Sweet Tooth, Kratos and that other chick from God of War, Cole MacGrath, Sackboy, etc. And not just PS3 exclusive characters, they also have Altair, Issac Clarke, Hitman, and that little girl I think is from Bioshock and other characters from other video games are telling stories on how "Michael" (their player) beat all of their games and they are all worshiping him.

[MPHippo1]

isnt it that chicks gun sword thing from FF?

[strikkebil]

its 5.10 now! i wanna know

[oblivimix95]

@strikkebil look up long live play on youtube.

[xXTreaDXx]

parappa the rapper 3.

[Brettz0r056]

It has everything to do with the PSVita and nothing to do with "pay to play"as said by the commentators lol

Why would Sony spend loads of money and time to create an advertising event... and keep people in suspense... to release...... More charges to their network!

uhh.. no.

It will be about the vita .. because their is many Sony exclusive games references in their and most of them are being released on the vita.

Good run down though - picked up on many things I missed but u missed the point

[jasontotalwar]

ok so the sword its in the youtube ign background!!!!!!!!??

[PayneMan17]

I thought it would be PS2 games for the PSN but that already happened today...I want an hd remake of jak trilogy

[1001thedoctor]

DO THE DARK KNIGHT RISES TRAILER!!!!!

[Aadrianseth]

There are many different characters in that room, undoubtedly chatting with one another, as if they were using Cross-Game-Chat. Think of it, chatting with friends no matter what game your playing, viewing what everyone else is playing, players joining their friends games by being in Cross-Game-Chat. If there is no Cross-Game-Chat, I will throw snails, whack piñatas, and may even shit my pants so bad you will see a mile long stain

[Zom333B]

It's going to be Playstation Vita information. Starting at $249.00, the Vita has yet to announce a release date for North America. Perhaps annunced on Oct. 5? We will see. I believe it's PSV related due to the fact The Playstation Vita has "Cross-Platform Chat" So Vita Platers can play/chat with PSP players. Resistance, God of War, Little Big Planet, and Uncharted are Games said to be the first release for the Vita, and those are the characters in the trailer.

[PSNslydaniels]

@Zom333B then whats with the Ratchet, Final Fantasy 13, sweet tooth and Sly references, they haven't been announced for Vita?

[NeinBasterd]

@Zom333B wrong :(

[Adiorocks949]

@Zom333B

How'd that work for you?

[Generation941]

I wanna go to that party it be interesting to see sackboy, snake, lightning, ratchet, drake, hale, or capelli, sev and a whole bunch of others in the same room would be awesome.

[TheBringerOfPS3]

the gun right next to the sword is the official helgan assault rifle

[MadMupp]

content sharing... but sharing what?

[scottmop4325]

fuck this guys

[straightupgutta]

It's smash bros on ps3 .. bet

[rablvox]

Parappa the Rapper was a greatest hit on the original Playstation.

[ckdelles1]

the Sword is Lightnings Blazefire Saber from FFXIII

[Graven754]

@ckdelles1 I'm gonna go out on a limb hear, and say. that another possibility is that the thing on her shoulder, also looks like cloud's fenrir pendant on his shoulder. I don't know what would come out of that even if it were true.

[Generation941]

@ckdelles1 damn you beat me to it.

[MadMupp]

ENOUGH OF SMASH BROS, PS4 & CROSS GAME CHAT, it tells up in black and white its about content sharing... everyone seems to have missed the main bit of info in favour of saying WOW they parachuting in, this means something...

[NOOBTUBE81]

Sony smash bros.. MAKE this be it..

[mrreaperdude2]

They did 8 minutes of analysis for nothing they should have done a lot more looking into their theory's instead of "that's a van from Twisted Metal... That's a gun from Resistance... That's an orb from Little Big Plant" IGN Really needs to start putting more effort into their videos and Articles!

[hitl3rhm]

these guys r so awkward

[MrMonkeymonster]

This better not be PS Home. No offense to any Home fans, but its just too boring!

[daconverse]

@MrMonkeymonster you gotta remember. Home is still a beta. makes you think huh?

[ryfalraptor10]

I know what it is....an add

[TLOWNSU]

It's just the revamped Home

[jdoub5678]

maybe ps3 and xbox are making 1 sytem called the playstation 360

[bagio202]

@jdoub5678 Well if the 2 consoles combined then microsoft and sony would need to combine/ join together and create "SO-SOFT"

[XFinalFateX]

Anyone put thought into Cross Game Chat? Makes Sense If You Think About! Multiple Game References,Going In A Room To Chat?

[sws113]

i think the sword is a one of lightnings gunblades from FFXIII

[JessSmiles100]

pay to play nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooo ooooooooooo ooooo oooooooooooo o o oo o o oo oo o oo o o ooo oo o oo o o o ooooo o o o o o o o o o oo o o o o oo o o oo o o oo o o o o o o o o o

[bust2007]

Sword ....... Elder scrolls...? Maybe ?

[barcelon09]

they also didnt notice that sword was lightning switch blade

[barcelon09]

they didnt notice the gil currency

[strikkebil]

vita? it says PS3 at the end -_-

[TheMisterkrump]

fxp

[jazzythejeff313]

most of the games ore going to be on the vita like killzone metal gear solid resistance uncharted little big planet. so its probz about the vita

[WastelandGaming]

Boring.

[tjaldid]

Here is the list=

PS HOME Relaunch

XMB/Store Redesign

Gaming Unlimited (A Game streaming service)

PS Vita Release Date

[THEAzureflame13]

That weird looking sword at about 4:40 looks like Lightning's from FFXIII

[LovelyKuja]

I'm almost positive that sword was the Blazefire Saber.

[SNAKEpphair]

@jacknumber13000 Too fuckin right!

[JawzPause]

I have a bad feeling that this is for playstation home.

[AFGThugonomics]

All this hype better not be about PShome. I hate that crap

[XIentertainment11]

i didn't see kratos clearly

[Br1on]

Playstation theme park in some place like Dubai

[FinalKill333]

probably pay to play cross game chat

[Gamer15511]

I think the sword is Lightning's weapon from Final Fantasy 13.

[789123456789]

how do you find the original video?

[FinalKill333]

@789123456789 youtube/playstation

[789123456789]

@FinalKill333 THANKS!

[1InfinityShade]

i just saw this and i was like. WTF IS THIS

BTW that swords is ff13 i think, i saw it at pax.

[mandarinduck]

@1InfinityShade At first I was going to say that that was the obvious answer but that you were mistaken, but now that I look closely and compare with some screen shots... holy crap you're right!

[1InfinityShade]

@mandarinduck yeah, it was at pax

[froze525]

i didn't think of that but i dont think psn is going to be on sony tablet

[AngryGinger79]

Perhaps something for the upcoming Sony tablet, as it is supposed to have ps games/store access?

[froze525]

its probably either a smash bros brawl type game or pshome redesign

[GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0]

@froze525 You just said what the highest rated comments are noob!!!!

[mediciled]

Is it me or the ashtray the guy puts the money on comes from Uncharted3?

it looks a lot like the artifact in wich the ring goes in the trailer (the evil granny puts it in)

[MfZiggy123]

Its going to be part 2 of the video?

[karazhni]

Please be Playstation Home or cross game chat!!! D:

[Xaeon03JH]

@karazhni cross game chat isnt going to happen. sony said so, they just cant do it, and get it right.

[113mac113]

Its gonna be PS Home

Fuck.

[NarutofightsHD1]

I hope it's cross game chat.

[NarutofightsHD1]

I hope it's cross gqme

[saku666]

final fantasy Lightning's sword

[objedi9]

I HOPE PS4 but I HIGHLY DOUBT IT!

[starwarscreature]

:O SONY SUPER SMASH BROS.?!?!?!?! PLEASE!!!

[ogrl86]

This is obviously a Resistance add...

[maccajoe]

@ogrl86 yea of course it is yet as they said sweetooths icecream truck is there and his from another franchise called twisted metal. Oh yea mrk 2 from another game franchise mgs 4. A little big planet reference, multiple uncharted references. So how the fuck is it just a resistance ad also the games already out

[DavidCrimson]

Its Lightning gunblade.

[sk8terkid4life]

So pissed it it will be PS Home related... I never use that.

[LandWarrior99]

All these games, the color RED reference, and the soldiers paying to get to those games. If it aint the VITA, could it possibly be the PlayStation Underground coming back? Or at least some form of it? Thats just my wild guess.

[xanto97]

they should have put in a precursor orb in the little bowl! i miss jak and daxter..

[starwarscreature]

@xanto97 so do i :(

[MrUUUUUUU7]

@TheSouthernPsycho Maybe he'll destroy Snake, Drake, and Clank! AAAAARGHOAIRHKLASAGHFKLNDLKFSA­C!!!!!!1!11!!1!

[TheSoupaman66]

@balling916 so your saying that its okay to be an atheist? not most people are atheist.

[balling916]

@TheSoupaman66 so... it's not okay to be atheist just because most people are religious?

[TheSoupaman66]

@balling916 no. I meant to type is that is “most people are atheist?”. because they're not. when it comes to religion, don't bash others beliefs, because of what you think because not everybody knows the real answer. learn to accept others religions as their beliefs. You don't have anything to do with them. more room for you anyway. same with gays. let them be, but just don't be involved with them. every body's happy.

[ExtraCreamy45]

Kratos!!!!:D

[jfassettx123]

The sword on the 39 second mark is the sword from Final Fantasy 13

[falconxcrunner09]

Please be sonys version of super smash bros, pleassssse.

[CJP120]

@falconxcrunner09 couple days ago i was actually wondering how they would make a "playstation exclusive characters" fighting game aka sony's version of smash bros.

[PlayStationFan98]

I bet it's PS Home lol :D

[ThePaladinzz]

for the love of god that's LIGHTNING'S sword from Final Fantasy XIII. /DIES

[excaliber2010]

@ThePaladinzz if thats Lightning's sword, then thats the only non exclusive reference in the ad. Everything else is playstation exclusive.

[MrUUUUUUU7]

GOD OF WAR 4 ANNOUNCEMENT?!?!?

[TheSouthernPsycho]

@MrUUUUUUU7 A god of war 4 announcement and yet they have references to MGS, uncharted, resistance, ratchet and clank, e.c.t. . . . . . yeah bro, I don't think it's a god of war 4 announcement . . . . . not to mention, Kratos destroyed Zeus, WHO THE FUCK IS HE GOING TO DESTROY NOW!

[Leviverzyden]

the sword is clearly Lightnings

[TheDISCOMIDGET]

when he said "jack what do you see" i was expecting "boobs" as an answer

[dunlea09]

I bet the room they go into will be filled with all the main people or soilders from playstation exclusive games

[jeremy1bullfrog]

Super Smash Bros Playstation Version

[LaFuriaDeMachete]

fuck now i am all fucking exicted now

[prevertedoldman]

an almost 8 minute analysis on a minute long video. and why is the pokemanic commenting on this.

[killerbumble]

Maybe its a cross over MMO with Sony characters......

[Shane25233]

eyes at the start could be world at war zombies, there eyes always glowed 

[mayorsoffice]

Its so obvious thats ifs for Playstation Home, I will be amazed if its for something else.

[mayorsoffice]

Its so obvious thats ifs for Playstation Home, I will be amazed if its for something else.

[mayorsoffice]

Its so obvious thats ifs for Playstation Home, I will be amazed if its for something else.

[Bam5000000]

i would have jizzed my pants if there was a keyblade on that wall of weapons

[PayneMan17]

Maybe they will release PS2 games on the PS Store. All I want is a Jak and Daxter HD collection!

[zodiac832]

Its a new PS Home that will work on PS3 and PS Vita.

[UnmissableMoment]

Well its defiantly a history of Sony sooooo Vita? PS4? Greatest hits? But why so much care for an ad about old games and why the truck? Long shot but think all these games are coming to Vita.

[joevictor53]

@UnmissableMoment No because when the PlayStation channel uploaded it they had PlayStation 3 in the title of the video. It was for Vita, they would've left that out, had PlayStation on its own or had Vita in the title. And the ice cream van is from Twisted Metal.

[UnmissableMoment]

@joevictor53 Oh I was saying that why was sweets truck there if it was greatest hits cos it not out yet. I guess we will find out soon.

[tjaldid]

A Game streaming service... maybe

[GREENTHUNDER0]

Th trailer probably meant that the greatest hits collection will be on the ps store.

[TonyProvoskidas]

You should have the ad's link to the description,for those woh haven't seen it ! >.<

[itrymybestatgaming]

It's a new PS Home thing, hanging up your weapons and going inside for a chat. Although it seems a bit too sinister for that!

[oscarmand2]

am i the only one who couldn't see kratos

[eaglefan129]

also it better be big news cause why would they put so much effort in a add where we don't even know what sony is trying to sell

[7890jr]

Lightings sword from final fantasy

[eaglefan129]

I love how they never mention Playstation Home... If you remember from a blog there was an article saying home will be completely redesigned.

[TheStebinantis]

i bet if this was for xbox its just be called ad analysis

[TheMrxboxfanatic]

Do a rewind trailer for Arkham city joker trailer

[Fredfiness]

I don't care what this ad means.

What's the girls name?

[mrdumbass00c]

ok there is somthing you missed think at least i think so:all the games you talk about are coming to ps vita: -resistance: burning skies mgs(i think the hd remake) -ff(x hd remake)) .and gow -a r4achet and clanck(im not 100% suro on it) -little big planet - -uncharted golden abys - early in the year there was a rumor for the mgs 4 fir the vita -killzone

[TheBurek88]

at 2:53 ''Jack what do you see?'' lol i see boobs! xD

[rickstir10]

Wait different games getting together to chat. Pray for cross game chat *Won't happen*

[dekuscrubbyfan888]

Okay, with all these game references, along with the two soldiers entering a social room, I've figured it out:

It's an ad for the new PS Home redesign. Thumbs this up if this makes sense to you now.

[edirt666]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 thumbs down for asking for a thumbs up

[MrGrave111]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 i'm sorry but what exactly is the PShome?

[VadersfistGamer]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 would kinda make since but seems like allot of work put into this trailer just for a Redesign of there home screen. seems more like a Brawl type game. Im a Nintendo/PC person and this is exciting for me haha.

[matties1993]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 you think it will have to be paid for? hence the soldiers dropping cash into the tray before entering "Playstation Home"

[Funnyguy3596]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 makes sense but the trailer is soooooo cooooool whyyyyy!! i hope it's something cooler... no offence to any ps home fans, just not my thing..

[puncipocokteto]

And the Killzone weapon they first mention is the WASP rocket-launcher not the arc gun.

[puncipocokteto]

I think this has to do with the overhaul of home. Could be interesting!

[Skillcaker]

Can someone send the link to the original ad? I can't seem to find it.

[flipboy062]

Maybe these games will be playable in PS Home?

[59Martins59]

CROSS GAME CHAT

[chuninuzomaki]

That's Lightning's gunblade all right, the wholes in the sword's blade match up

[eltoro98xboxlive]

Maybe a start of a new 1st party franchise.

[TheLynchMobsta]

The sword is part of IGN's youtube wallpaper.... -_- It's obvously Lightning's sword...

[Grimsby2162]

4:40 the sword was a reference from Warhawk. It was an unlockable blade from participating in tournaments.

[Dawonandonli]

Of course its hinting to the new PS Home. Sony already announced the revamped service will be launching this fall.

[MsStrongshot]

ps4?

[aceofspades230]

that is no doubt lightning's sword for final fantasy XIII

[FERTUHG]

NEW PS3 HOME!

[mavadoman]

@SockMonsterDX OMG, I actually never realised that :L I've been playing SSB for years and I just accepted that Snake was in it, lololol i'm an Idiot, and by that logic, your entirely right :)

[MrJinkxy]

October 5th is my birthday :D

[Batu731]

The ad says its about PS3, so I doubt this has anything to do with the Vita.

could be a new IP? new service? or a big title (God of war 4?)

btw the sword belongs to Tenzin xD

[hyperbros96]

My theory is that it might have something to do with ps+, seeing all this games im thinking maybe it is some kind of cloud gaming new feature or something.

[MrCoolStickman]

Hey IGN, I think that the sword is Lightning's from Final Fantasy XIII... Just an idea that I wanted to throw out there. Someone has probably already pointed this out, but I'm putting it out there just in case.

[lpool1996moh9]

ps3 fighting game ? like super smash bros on nintendo?

The sword is lightnings from final fantasy XIII and the red lights could be the PS Move sphere.....
