  • ps3 orever

  • Probably my favorite console! Now and forever! PS2 rocks!

  • Jeez, you console airheads. Go grab a season of Twin Peaks, educate yourself on Lynch. YOU WILL CONFORM. >8D

    But seriously, I think this commercial is so awesomely messed up. I remember seeing it once on TV in a commercial break in between the film "Volcano" on ITV1 (I know, what a contrast) back in early 2001-ish and it never left me. Console's okay too, I guess. ;)

  • fucking star wars battle front was the shit

  • the fuck did that have to do with anything!

  • ...

    The PS2, free bag of cocaine with every purchase!

  • I still have my ps2 OH LORD THE FUUUN I USE TO HAVE!

  • ps2 is where its at!

  • what the fuck did i just watch?

  • i still play on my ps2 its boss!

  • How the hell did they manage to sell any consoles with a commercial like this.

  • this was such an epic console, why did microsoft even try to compete with it. hell, why are they STILL trying to compete with it

  • PS2 wuz the shit

  • ...the fuck does this have to do with a game console?

  • Who the hell let David Lynch direct a PS2 commercial???

  • Good old SOCOM on this system! too bad they fucked up the series after SOCOM 3

  • They are still releasing new titles to PS2. PS2 was released 2000, PS3 came 2006. Six years has gone by since PS3, it has doubled its expected life time! It's the best selling console of ALL TIME. Why?

    It's made of awesome...

  • Third place?

  • i think a commercial could'nt be any more random.

  • what the fuck...

  • Someone kill David Lynch

  • @Nickdiaublow Derp.

  • lol i still have my ps2 plugged in XD

  • And the trend continues...

  • I don't know if that commercial would want to make me want to buy a PS2...even though I bought one lol

  • VSAUCE!

  • Can someone explain what this is about?

  • wtf did i just watch?

  • i bet this was a super bowl add

  • Over 100Million sales and counting...

  • Is that Dafffy!? WHAT THE DAMN!?!?

  • This is almost as trippy as one of those Japanese commercials.

  • any console that had Metal Gear on it.. Wins by default.

  • @iinsanebaby oh yeah. (so this is PS1, PS2, PSP, PSP GO, PS3, MSX2, XBOX, XBOX 360, PC, NES, GCN, Wii, Mobile Phones and soon 3DS. :) Did I forget something?)

  • @CaptainBlagbird pretty much.. ;)

  • what is the 3rd place

  • I feel uncomfortable...

  • This was my childhood console. I loved it.

  • Gosh I love this console! Still use it!

  • had some amazing times with this console like beating kingdom hearts 1 and 2 xD

  • my first console! I was like 5. Idfk what this ad is but nevertheless the PS2 was great.

  • This is seriously some of the worst marketing ever

  • My first console ever!

  • i remember the day when i got the first game console: the ps2

    i was awake the whole night waiting for my mother to come back from work then she came home and gave me a ps2 i felt very happy and she told me that her boss gave it to her for free for working hard. i really thank my parents not even a million thanks is enough

  • If you didn't notice. On the bottom left it says "Directed by David Lynch"

  • wtf

  • how the FUCK would this convince anyone to buy this? I personally believe that the PS2 is the best system of all time, but jesus...

  • someone should make an epic marketing fail completions, i've watched all 28 of vsauce timeline videos, and most of the commercials have nothing to do with the product.

    which one is more advanced 16,32,64? as if a child is gonna know what those numbers mean.

  • @cool2t the point is they did not matter you can make games the way they are now on a 64 bit systum.

    it was just a way to market them

    when they had a higher bit they were able to say they were better then others even if they were not

  • WOW how did they not go bankrupt after this commercial ill never know ...

    its probably because ppl don't even realize its a PlayStation commercial to begin with...

  • the fuck?

  • i hate stupid game commercials

  • PS 2 was the shit

  • Vsauce.

  • the king of consoles right here

  • @MarkLSana WRONG. Thats X-box

  • i'm 18 and i got this console last year on christmas... soooooo worth it

  • This was the first console i actually i wanted, my dad got me to play games on his PC. God bless him.

  • (clears throat) nothing wrong with a decent computer to play games on

  • WORST commercial ever! What marketer got paid for this?

  • wtf

  • He's obviously just fucking with us, at this point.

  • worst commercial ever and worst of all who even like this anyway

  • I love Mr. Lynch's style! I wonder if he has a Playstation.

  • wtf?!

  • what the fuck is this,,,retarded shit,,,,piece of shit commercial i've ever seen...fucking shit again

  • Who didn't like this commercial, didn't like Eraserhead too.

  • Comment removed

  • I think this is the most retarded piece-of-shit commercial I've ever seen.

  • What?????????

  • Duck: Da Fuck

    ??????

  • PS1: You are not ready. PS2: Welcome to the Third Place. PS3: Play beyond and Long Live Play.

  • @51rickjames No, the PS2's was: Live in your world. Play in ours.

  • @51rickjames ps1 cd/cd-rom ps2 dvd/dvd-rom ps3 blu-ray/blu-ray rom...

    what the hell will ps4 then reveal...

  • @supervegito2277 Probably will just be Blu-Ray again with a faster Blu-ray drive then the PS3's, since its already the best format

  • @51rickjames yes ps3s blu ray is the slowest... but still i HIGHLY doubt that blu ray will end up being the last.. cause why should it.

  • what the heck is this?, wierdest commercial ever!

  • Da fuck?

  • That didn't look like a ps2 commercial

  • were they high when they were making this commercial

  • The absolute fuck did I just watch?

  • .................

  • Looked more like it was directed by Tim Burton

  • David lynch made this bollox

  • Хуйта полная

  • @Fomincev  ты прав

  • Doohhhhh my fucking god...

    WTF does a human with a duck head have to do with jackshit?

    Oh, Lord above, I'm so confused. DAMN you, Japanese, for being so fucked up, yet so enjoyable!

  • @TehGamersGarage david lynch is an american this was america's idea. funny huh

  • 0:12 cameltoe!!

  • This is not so hard to figure out. The first place is home, place were you eat sleep and shit. Second place is school, job, etc. outside of home. Now, the THIRD place is the best... Playstation :)

  • The eternal question that shall never be answered:

    What exactly, is Sony's problem? I mean, what is WRONG with them?

    They're the most bizarre, deranged and downright incomprehensible company you can find. Nothing they do makes sense.

  • Playstation commercials are weird, its like a code that u have to break to be able to understand lol

  • i remember when this aired at the very end (during the logo screen) a woman shouted "playstation 2, the 3rd place!!!" but it's not on here =S

  • Isn't Sony wanting more customers? Not scaring 'em away?

  • WTFFFFF?????????

  • The duck just takes away the seriousness out of the commercial.

  • What the heck?

  • i take it the guy was high when he made his commercial?

  • this is the most creepiest commercial iv ever seen. gave me nightares for a month lol

  • The third place, indeed.

  • simply THE THIRD PLACE

  • i really have to stop taking acid

  • Awwww I swear this ad used to have a kid at the end shout PLAYSTATION 2 THE THIIIIIIIIIIIIRD PLACE!!!!!!!!!!

  • @zorandroid Me too. So It probably did.

  • ?s2

  • What the f....

  • I don't know aboout you guys, but i love these absolutely bizarre ads.

  • What the hell is the Third Place?

  • @exposed97 Bullshit...

  • 140 million stoners bought this console.

  • @ImAllFact 140 million? ahaha 165 million

  • @xpto41 If your on about the number of views, its thousand not million.

  • @ImAllFact nope.jpg

  • @ImAllFact Xbox fag

  • @FootSplit lol it was a joke. i never even owned an original xbox.

  • This is not strange. This is normal.

  • Note to self: Don't take drugs while watching this

  • Kids will definitely buy a PS2 after this

  • So this is what David Lynch's looks like.

  • I LOVE PS 2

  • Who else was thinking of that surreal "Mr. Plow" commercial from The Simpsons? Because all I can imagine at the end was the Sony people saying:

    "Was that our commercial?"

    "I... don't know..."

  • You can see a face if you stop at 0:41 its like some old witch

  • funny thing is they still release games for ps2 but ont for xbox LOL

  • i love this console

  • i own a ps2 slim

  • HAD PS2 N HAVE 2 BROKEN PS3..I STILL LIKE PLAYING GAMES..BUT ON PS2 I WAS ADDICTED TO GAMES...SADLY BROKE IT 4 YEARS AGO...NEW GEN CONSOLES ARE GR8 BUT CANT BRING THOSE PS2 GAMING DAYS BACK..

  • Are they selling drugs or video game console?

    LOL XD

  • You can see that its made by japanese guys...

  • @ValtteriSiivonen The commercial is directed by David Lynch, lol

  • Weird :-/

  • gee i dont feel high or anything

  • WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWTTTTTF?

  • You can always expect the best from Sony

  • strange

    

  • weird 

  • i like ps2 and stuff but i dont know Y they made all the newer games on cds because they get scracthed or skip a lot and stuff i wish they made all the new games on game cartrigaes like the old game like sega genesis and the older games and not have the newer ones on cds

  • @NoriesW if they do that then games would be more expensive

  • @NoriesW CD's allow for more data at an affordable price, so more voice acting, cut scenes, better graphics, longer games.

  • @NoriesW Because using CD-Roms is A LOT cheaper and easier to work with. ALso CD/DVD-Roms have higher memory/graphic capabilities as in the old cartiges (specifically N64) only had about a 10 MB (I'm guessing here) RAM memory limit, which deeply decreased it's video playback capabilites. So if you like your graphics.....it's better to use CDs lol

  • i like ps2 and stuff but i dont know Y they made all the newer games on cds because they get scracthed or skip a lot and stuff i wish they made all the new games on game cartrigaes like the old game like sega genesis and the older games and not have toe newer ones on cds

  • Ps2>Xbox360

  • i have ps1,2,3 but the comercials are cripy and stupids

  • Sony and its weird commercials crack me up!!!

  • I'm pretty sure this is Lynch poking fun at himself. I just get the vibe.

  • wtf?

  • LMFAO the tlkin duck craks me up xD

  • What does that have to do with PlayStation?

  • Proof that you CAN get rich and famous by just filming nonsense for an hour and a half.

  • i expected weirder from lynch

  • I like Lynch's film's because they make you think more and use your own imagination to what Lynch is trying to say in his films. His films are more like surrealist paintings. More dream like where everything is disconnected and scattered only for you to piece things together.

  • Man...right at the end there....the duck man's beak is a frickin' DOG!!!! HOW COOL IS THAT?!!!

  • Join the dark side has any one notice that every single one of Sony console commercials have been weird ans scary. Join the DARK SIDE JOIN THE EMPIRE OF SONY!!!

  • tahat was more cheesee than strange

  • why i say WHY with all the directors avaible,David Lynch (creator of Eraserhead) had to create a spot for a ps2

  • I dont remember this commercial at all

  • So fucking creepy. The PS3 baby commercial comes close but this one is just.. too strange

  • Why are video game adverts always so terrifyingly cryptic. Wargh!

  • WTF? xDD purchasing people: "What I have to buy? a talking-black-duck?" xD

  • And they thought the PS3 commercials were wierd?

  • @nikolosvalakis2 Every PS Commercial is wierd!

  • reminds me of red hot chili peppers song "other side"

  • mushrooms and eraser head.... not a good combo

  • that was *&^%$ up man

  • lol PlayStation ads are always f**ked up excpte the new ones
