Bask in the glory of an insulting marketing campaign!
This video is an actual attempt by Sony to use viral marketing in order to get more people to buy the PSP. When the ad first came out on Youtube, there was no indication that the video was actually an ad. Presumably, Sony wanted us to think that "Cousin Pete" was actually some hip hop artist rapping about the PSP, in an attempt to appeal to all of the 'gangsta' kids, who are clearly their target audience. An admission that this was an ad can be found at http://www.alliwantforxmasisapsp.com/... The original video has since been deleted from the site and youtube, and Sony has posted a sort of pseudo-apology/admission for the trickery, which never actually admits that Sony has done anything wrong.
The video was brought to my attention via www.penny-arcade.com

I don't see why people are still pretending this happened two weeks ago. It was three years ago, and 2010 will actually give me a reason to clean off the dust from my PSP.
I have a DS, but no actual games for it. I've had it since Dec. 2004 and not a single game interested me. Just a bunch of Mario/Zelda/Metroid re-hashes. Stylus was a gimmick, dunno why I fell for it.
This commercial SUCKS, and NOT in a so bad it's good way... Everything about it is just so bad it's horrible. I'd much rather get a Nintendo DS, anyway.

Double barf.
God, Sony, you're turning into the Fox News of gaming.
