[..YouTube..] You are just so dumb!! You an uneducated reject. I checked out your spellings they horrible. Get some education after that then view this video and judge if the Nigerian line is relevant.
[..YouTube..] It does “everything” except play PS2 games.
[..YouTube..] Calm yourselves with the Nigerian line. If you can’t handle it, GTFO because no one wants to hear you complain.As for the ones that say “It doesn’t play PS2 games” or any variations of that line, then get yourself a PS2, and again, GTFO because no one wants to hear you complain.
[..YouTube..] Lol its true, like a month or so before this everybody knew about it but if they tried to contact sony they’d be like theres no official statement. Just like with the Slim and PSP GO, sony got a leak problem they should find the secret spilling bastard and fire him
[..YouTube..] Ps2’s are like 50$ bucks, these people cmon if it was that important just buy one, i would if i ever really needed to for one reason or another. Most people already have a ps2, who cares?And lol at the Nigerian government bugging out, do they really care so much?
[..YouTube..] too bad this commercial was pulled off from tv network
[..YouTube..] Amazing
[..YouTube..] LOL ur complaing right now stupid ass
[..YouTube..] Fuck Nigerian scammers. If the government there was so concerned about their image, they’d crack down on them. If they can’t, then they should STFU. You see commercials making fun of the water in Mexico. The government can’t fix it, so they don’t demand apologies for people parodying the truth.
[..YouTube..] It does everything… but play PS2 games. Yeah, I have a PS2, but the whole point of getting a slim PS3 is to save space to get a smaller unit. I’d rather keep my original PS3 that “does everything” than have a slim version, along with a PS2 next to it. That’s pointless.
[..YouTube..] ps3 doesn’t take a shit either ps3 doesn’t play cartridges
[..YouTube..] “Mexican Standoff” has been seen and heard in movies, shows and comics for years all over the world. I don’t see the Mexican government crying and getting all butt hurt because they have the balls to handle that and more.”Nigerians don’t take crap from no one!!”Then why the government does nothing to stop such fraud, instead of crying for an apology for just ONE Ad? Time to grow a pair and man up.
[..YouTube..] Plus, they deserve not to have B/C since they didn’t buy the 60 or 20 GB when they were released, if you are a cheapstake, don’t expect premium products…I saved money for months so I could get a really neat machine, btw, Im costarican, I payed 800 bucks for my 60 GB back in the day (since everythig is a lot more expensive here) and I’m completeley happy with that beautiful black piece of hardware I have…so, go and buy a PS2 and stop complaining people!
[..YouTube..] in México, butt hurts dont hurt.
[..YouTube..] Really who cares if the Nigerian Gov. wants to make a scene about this Ad. Mexico can do the same, but they decided not too. If anything Sony are the ones that bitched out. This is such a smaller incident compared to Microsofts “racial” Ad in Poland.
[..YouTube..] They are concern but they also have to feed their 160 million people.
[..YouTube..] Then if they turn a blind eye to computer crime done to people in another country, they shouldn’t get all pissy when someone from another country calls them out on it. You reap what you sow.
[..YouTube..] Nigeria has no right to take offense at this because it’s simply true. They’re the biggest bunch of scammers going.
[..YouTube..] I’m not getting into word battles with you. What’s wrong is wrong. That’s how a whole nation becomes another’s target. It’s better for Nigerians to stand up now than wait for something worse to be said. If this ad was meant to be comical, well IT IS NOT! Nigeria will not bow to studpidity.
[..YouTube..] yeah but most people dont play their old ps2 games
[..YouTube..] rabble rabble rabble rabble rabble Nigeria angry!!
[..YouTube..] eBay won’t bow to stupidity either, which is why 99% of the sellers on there put in their description that they won’t sell to Nigeria.Fuck those rogues.
[..YouTube..] I’m dumb? uneducated reject? my spelling is horrible.. hmm yeah.. for what reason could that be.. Maybe I don’t even live in an english-speaking country? I live in Holland, I assume you speak perfect dutch? NO? then stfuI’m from Morocco, and I speak berber, I can also speak french and some german. So what my english isn’t perfect.and about that nigerian joke, I’m moroccan, the most hated race in Holland, I deal with racial jokes EVERY FUCKING DAY , do I care? NO
[..YouTube..] ….can you blame us for it…. =
[..YouTube..] Agreed xD
[..YouTube..] I wont take sides in this matter but one thing is for sure, Sony shouldn’t have reference Nigerians are scamers that stereotyping .. not all Nigerians are Scamers.(Joke) why would you do business with someone over the internet you don’t even know and the funny thing is they still fall for it lmao
[..YouTube..] Death to all scammers.PS3 slim ftw.
[..YouTube..] Yeah, this is almost as trustworthy as a the Nigerian cretin that offered me $1000 for my PSP on eBay.
[..YouTube..] Does anybody know if this “Bernie Buncalan” is actually Colin Fickes (Jimmy Edwards from One Tree Hill)? I’m convinced that it’s him, but I’m trying to look and I can’t find the info anywhere, so I just wanted to make sure..?
[..YouTube..] I like both versions. People need to stop making a fuss over jokes like this.
[..YouTube..] the commerical didn’t say nigerian scamers, just millionaires. what difference does that make if he said an american millionaire? or indian millionaire?
[..YouTube..] bahaha
[..YouTube..] You don’t seems to get it. You can make joke of that it’s nothing. What am saying is why the mocking and how does it help the advert or how is it relevant.
[..YouTube..] Please, don’t let us blame Sony for their advets or the bastards, the so called scammers. It’s because we don’t have a responsibile government. Any country where there is no rule of law will always find itself in a position where Nigeria is today. A lot of jobless but highly intelligent and skilled people have been oppressed by our past and current corrupted leaders or the so called politicians.
[..YouTube..] What is Nigerian government doing in making the life of those millions of jobless graduates on the street better? After all these ASUU and SANU strikes, what they get at the end of the day is – no job. Still, our government continue approving private universities without laying the ground work for private investiment that would create jobs for the products that these schools will be adding to already overcrowded jobless society .
[..YouTube..] Nigeria is the worst place in the world to do business – corruptions everywhere – nothing is free for Nigeria, you have to know your way. Worste is power failure. If the power is stable today, I will be the first to be in Nigeria
[..YouTube..] It’s most disheartening and sad to see a privately owned company like Sony to be tarnishing the image of my lovely country. I love Nigeria so much.Please, take it from me. Sony will never go for free on this advert. It’s just a matter of time, what goes up would always comes back. That advert would bite their ass later in future except they don’t have any business (including anything sony products) or investiment in Nigeria. That video is on record
[..YouTube..] Hey Gullible bastard! Nah u dnt live in America u live in a zoo plus u r white in ur dreams white-skinned people will agree wiv me. u fucking pig. Tell mummy and daddy to teach u some moral thats if u got any.
[..YouTube..] Listen, you can express comedy by stereotypes but hold a minute and manage to ask that ur empty skull if the Sony advert is a stand up comedy and that’s the motive behind the Nigeria line.
[..YouTube..] How is your comment relevant to the issue on board. If Nigeria is the worst place to (you can’t even spell worst) run business what of millions of Nigerians in the western. With your comment ask yourself, am i dumb or not.
[..YouTube..] Hey fat ass kid that clearly never went to school. Yes i do live here. And why dont you tell ur mom and dad to teach you somthin o wait they cant because there dead since i shot them up haha fag. Go back to ur grandparents basement.
[..YouTube..] Comming from the little fag that makes stupid pointless comments on youtube.
[..YouTube..] Yes it is relevant because it ties into the whole point of sony satirizing themselves with the previous months in regards with their stance on ps3 pricing.
[..YouTube..] Wow shows what the fuck you know huh? I said this commerical was funny. Your a dumbass and you know nothing. Your one of those fuckin retards that comments and doesnt read the whole story. Good job pal go back to suckin ur moms dick.
[..YouTube..] As a Nigerian, I do not take any offence whatsoever to the joke. The sad state of our political system warrants some demeaning. The only sad issue is that most of these scams are operated outside Nigeria by other African nations using Nigeria as a cover up since it is associated with us.
[..YouTube..] Bunch of MAGAS are commenting on this video
[..YouTube..] lol ur such a clown … naija doesn’t need sony to tarnish their rep, we’ve been accomplishing that for years … OPEN UR EYES.
[..YouTube..] LOL i love how you have to post on this video 5 times a day, i’m born in the Gabon and i’ve lived in Nigeria for a year before i moved to where i am currently. Obviously you never heard of the the Nigerian 419 anthem. either sony says it or not, the whole world knows that a lot of nigerians are in the yahoo business. Most people who take offence to this have never even been to Nigeria.
[..YouTube..] Someone complained about Nigeria being seen in a bad light. No one has commented on the fat nerd representing all gamers.
[..YouTube..] ive heard this on tv alot so sony really needs to ban this if they say they will although i dont care
[..YouTube..] ONY IS A RACIST AND FUCK THEM WE DONT CARE WHO DEY BEING YOU PRESENT YOU PRODUCT TO ME AND I WILL NEVER HAVE TO BUY IT WITH MY MONEY PLUS I STILL GET YOUR OWN PRODUCT WITH THE MONEY I GET FROM YOU DUMBASS PEOPLE UR SINS ARE WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR ITS NOT A JOKE BUT A FACT I KNOW SOMEONE IS GONNA COME AROUND TO SAY I AM A FOOL,IDIOT,FAG BUT AR AINT TALKING BACK COS AM ON A HOLD TO MA PC ALWAYS AND AFTER ALL I AM STILL GETTING PAID ONLINE SO FUCK YA´LL…MiChAeL
[..YouTube..] It only does backwards compatibility.It only does linux.It only does everything.
[..YouTube..] Mr Sony sucks! This is not an issue that sony needs to address. Why have they chosen to say the Nigerian line in an advert, ask yourself again. In the history of sony business dealings they ain’t no record of a Nigerian scam. Nigerians got satirized. Period!!
[..YouTube..] Here Goes the anthem… Go on and snap your fingers go on and toe in Bones, Live with it Rock with it if you be Naija BOYIf you is a PIMP Ni**ga Brush your shoulders off show da lead,! show da lead !! if you be Naija BOY I gat the Customs feed seating on 22 you know how we do as per Naija BOY I gat you riding Dirty But é Ni were I do it do it do it cos I be Naija BOY…So clean Money Dirty Money How you tell The difference ? am a survivor boi real rider boi.. Continue…MiChAeL
[..YouTube..] Did you live in Niger or Nigeria. You are a swine. u are off my lane. Who told u the world ain’t talking about Nigeria scam. Am just saying what’s sony’s motive behind the line, what we but obviously know. If they aint guilty why the apology.
[..YouTube..] more like crap-S3
[..YouTube..] See am a Baller,baller sha kolla kolla dont hate cos ma money steps taller taller…You be thinking your smarter but am coming to get ya straight wipe through the bank like a Credit Card Ninja…Fuck ya´ll Thats the anthem so sing it no one cares about what ya say…Thank GOD we dont bomb people around and we aint never planing to invade other peoples country for their natural resources I HATE AMERICA.MiChAeL
[..YouTube..] No Nigerian scam artists were satirized. I think you got you head in the wrong place. For one, you’re sticking up for some criminals, and two, you’rethinking some Japanese dudes hate Nigerians. You’re either crazy or dumb, one of the two.
[..YouTube..] Maybe you should invest in a 2nd grade English lesson coz yo spellinz sux! They’re apologizing because you little bitches need to cry about everything and lord knows once a harmless joke is made about a nation ITS TIME TO TAKE OUT THE LAWERS amitrite? So fuck off you Wanker…
[..YouTube..] Its so funny that ur tryin to insult me and use big words you cant use right haha. Nice one retard go back to being the piss poor guy u are.
[..YouTube..] It only does everything, except having any good fucking games!!
[..YouTube..] i still hear the nigerian billionaire version on spike or adult swim now and then
[..YouTube..] i love a good fanboy…….how are there not any good games? LittleBigPlanet, Killzone, Uncharted, Gran Turismo…..to name a few.
[..YouTube..] is it true!?!? Sony has lowered the price of PS3 to a resonable price? WITH MORE HARD DRIVE SPACE?!? i’m so getting one now, i’ve always wanted one, but didn’t see the point in an overpiced system, but it does “everything” aparentally
[..YouTube..] MAG, God of War III… to name a few more
[..YouTube..] hahahaha fucking stupid niggers, even nigerians cant become nigerian millionaires
[..YouTube..] Dummy this is why i said u don’t live in America. Americans ain’t this dumb. Do ur research to figure out if i use d words right or not lol. Uneducated reject. Toss yourself to the atlantic ocean.
[..YouTube..] LittleBigPlanet and Uncharted, Ok, MGS4 and SOCOM were good too, but Killzone 2 was a mistake, and GT is not out yet.I sold my PS3 few months ago, but I miss LittleBigPlanet, so I’m buying the slim.
[..YouTube..] Ur pathetic thats all you can say haha. Get a life troll. Ur not causing any good. And ur just embarrasin yoself.
[..YouTube..] Hey. Niggers is a word not needed! Plz dont be an asshole.
[..YouTube..] the ps3 will finally gain some momentum thanks to the price drop. Just wait till final fantasy XII versus and persona 5 come out for the ps3. thats when the ps3 will really kick some ass.
[..YouTube..] its uncensored.. read
[..YouTube..] that will be me in the future
[..YouTube..] PS3: it does everything but PS2
If sony released a PS2-capable PS3 slim, I would probably buy it… but not as it is. Nice they’ve finally lowered the price but I don’t mind waiting a bit longer for a machine that’ll do it all.
[..YouTube..] i know i wish it was ps2 compatble if it was i would deff sell my 3602 and get it since im a sony guy psp blue ray sonysony walkman ‘ps2etc.
[..YouTube..] thats not the point……..
[..YouTube..] i would chincheck that smark aleck comment about nigerian millionaire lol
[..YouTube..] Too little too late. It’s been three years. This console war is pretty much over already.
[..YouTube..] I agree respectfully to PS3 lovers and owners. The console race was over after the long awaited exclusives were out meaning of course kill zone 2 and halo 3. Come on guys its been three years now i think its time to call it respectfully.
[..YouTube..] I worded that wrond I agree with your statement with respect to PS3 owners, sry for the possible mix up.
[..YouTube..] It does. It just isn’t PS1 Compatible.
[..YouTube..] im a Nigerian millionaire
[..YouTube..] Im nigerian and im like LOL
[..YouTube..] my hairy balls
[..YouTube..] this commercial is full of itself its telling us the ps3 is like the god of consoles or something
[..YouTube..] Well it’s a god damn commercial, it’s supposed to promote the product.It’s not like they’d have a commercial that goes; “Oh, well that PS3 is good I guess, but I’d rather have a 360.”
[..YouTube..] I wish
[..YouTube..] it is ! ! ! ! !
[..YouTube..] lol!! Good commercial im nigerian and this commercial does not offend me at all.
[..YouTube..] Ain’t gona blame u for not understanding my point. This aint cock sucking competition. Just get back to ur cock sucking job. Peace!
[..YouTube..] Aint standing up for criminals but for Nigeria as a nation dummy. You are just too dumb to understand my point. By the way aint crazy or dumb, u are both at a time.
[..YouTube..] U are just a gullible little piss of shit. I got a life and i understand my life. ur brain is gone left u time ago u cow. y are u dreaming of me being poor like ur dad well too bad hes gona die poor.
[..YouTube..] Another dummy cut up in d midst of western brain wash. Get your facts right. Super fool!
[..YouTube..] You had no point. Please tell me, at what point did sony call out nigeria? They called out a bunch of nigerian scammers which are the same criminals you continue to defend. According to what you have conveyed through all your posts, it’s safe to assume that you are a dumbass. Even at that your entire theory is bust based on one point you have yet to explain. Why would sony bash on the entire country of nigeria? Why exactly does sony hate nigeria?
[..YouTube..] Nigeria is a country and every country gets made fun of once and awhile…so get over it? Seriously it was barely an insult and they should suck it up and stop crying. Fuckin retarded government they hav running there country.
[..YouTube..] There are Nigerian millionares. many of them. where do they get this false information? lol. And very little of them scam. I don’t even think you can put a precentage on that. lol.
[..YouTube..] yeah… that’s what i thought your obviously a 16 year old wanker who’s crying for attention so you have to post on this vid 20 times a day.What kind of irrelevant retarded comeback is ”This aint a cock sucking competion” It just shows you have nothing smart to replyP.S. we don’t your pasty white ass ”defending” us so gtfo kid.
[..YouTube..] lol my statistics professor is Nigerian…I can’t understand half the stuff he says. I think I’m gonna fail…
[..YouTube..] This sure does piss off 360 fanboys lol.
[..YouTube..] this commercial is racist nice going sony
[..YouTube..] The issue at hand is too intensive for you to understand. You should thank me for reminding you of what you does best. Little wanker!
[..YouTube..] The first time I heard this commercial I was a little shocked and offended because I myself am a Nigerian American. It is pretty funny, but it’s still not cool to stereotype a whole nation to something so negative in a major advertisement. They changed the commercial now though, so it’s all good.
[..YouTube..] I thought I had posted the anthem already but i still see some pussy´s with a yeast infections talking shit like they know what there are saying well am Nigerian and i dont even need sony,matter of fact i dont feel you, here is a word of advise to some fake ass mother fuckers saying shit about Nigeria if you are a white guy i guess you should start to have ur bath with some black paint cos ur race is gonna hve more to face over what they did to the Black race.MiChAeL
[..YouTube..] I cant wait to hear that a suicide bombershas blown up sony companies in America fuck faces.MiChAeL
[..YouTube..] Can’t you guys take a joke?
[..YouTube..] Why do Nigerians get so fucking pissed about this? I thought in this day and age people were mature enough to know a joke when they hear one. I guess freedom of speech doesn’t include poking fun at people.
[..YouTube..] i lol’ed
[..YouTube..] show him this add
[..YouTube..] All you Nigerians on here should chill the heck out, they stated a well know fact that certain nigerians try to scam, get over it, im nigerian and i think its funny as hell, this is what nigeria represents to the world, yahoo yahoo boiz, rooooar…….everybody else go on out and get your own millie……..if you fall for these scams, youre the one who needs help, greedy sons of…..
[..YouTube..] Lord, could you imagine the rage if someone made an offhand remark about white people in a commercial… You have to admit, wishing death on large groups of people for a barely noticeable comment, made as a joke, in a commercial targeting an immature audience (I’m a gamer, I can say it) is a perfectly reasonable, even equitable response. Especially when those people had nothing to do with making the joke.
[..YouTube..] This is false advertising ladies & gentlemen. The $299 version DOES NOT DO EVERYTHING! There is no backwards compatibility.WTF!
[..YouTube..] i see this commercial everyday on tv…
[..YouTube..] I told my PS3 to go make me a sandwich, and it didn’t.This is lies.
[..YouTube..] lol
[..YouTube..] My PS3 made me a sandwich! XD
[..YouTube..] My PS3 wont be as good as my 360….thats something it wont ever do
[..YouTube..] that fat kid is a JONAH HILL wanna be.. Because of that kid i wont buy a PS3.. Just kidding i would never buy one because its pointless.. 360 is still better
[..YouTube..] How is this racist?
[..YouTube..] Lol you could do more stuff on the ps3 then the 360 say No!
[..YouTube..] not racist, but it gives nigeria a bad image (which i find HILLARIOUS)
[..YouTube..] my 360 is now my ps3’s bitch.
[..YouTube..] these are by far the best ps3 commercials. it already kinda works for me, as i don’t want any ps3 exclusives, but still feel compelled to buy…
[..YouTube..] You say that anyway. We don’t give a shit anymore.
[..YouTube..] THANK U!!!Its not like I’m sooo angry tht I wouldnt get my self a PS3 but they still shld have known better like u pointed out. There are just some things u have to think abt first b4 sayin on the air for pete’s sake
[..YouTube..] and americans…or europeans dont?
[..YouTube..] looking for real guys..hhihi feeling kinda lonely
[..YouTube..] Just wondering, could you tell me how they stereotyped a whole nation in this commercial? They referenced a well known internet scam, which in of itself mentions Nigeria in each of the scams sent out to people. Sony never said Nigeria is full of scammers or anything remotely along those lines. So please tell me how this ad stereotyped a whole nations?
[..YouTube..] Please explain to me how exactly this is racist? Are you denying that there are not email scams out there with the perpetrators mentioning they are from Nigeria? All Sony did was mention those scams, which DO exist. They never labeled Nigeria or any Nigerian a scammer. So please, explain to me how this was racist.
[..YouTube..] Nigerian 419 scams are no big secret…but I don’t think all Nigerians are scammers. The joke was still funny anyway. I’m Asian and Asians get joked about so often for their eyes and math skills etc. but I’m hardly affected by those jokes at all. People don’t talk about Nigerians as much as Asians to be honest anyway so it can’t be so terrible that everyone considers you fraudulent.
[..YouTube..] if anyone is interested in getting free psn cards, microsoft points or wii points then visit this blogfreegamesforps3 . blogspot . com
[..YouTube..] I HAVE PS3 SLIM, I GOT IT BEFORE IT WAS RELEASED IN USA SEPT 1st, BE JEALOUS. be jealous. BEJEALOUS. My ps3 has maybe more storage, its smaller, quiter, lighter, newer, and just all around BETTA.
[..YouTube..] HEY XBOX, IM HAPPY FOR YOU AND IMMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT PS3 IS ONE OF THE BEST CONSOLES OF ALL TIME*shrugs and walks off*
[..YouTube..] True, and I thought it was kinda funny also. Though there are other Nigerian stereotypes like accents, command of the English language, etc, the issue of “Nigerian scams” is a very touchy subject for Nigerians back home and in the diaspora especially, it’s as disturbing as a white dude calling a black dude the N-word to his face; I can’t explain why, but it’s pretty much always been like that.
[..YouTube..] You’re Asian right? What if Sony decides to change the ad and substitute the “Nigerian millionaire” comment with a popular Asian stereotype? Some Asians may be totally cool with it, and some may think it’s wrong/discourteous, and hence may have a problem with it. There are Nigerians who don’t even see anything wrong with the ad, and that’s cool. Anyway, it’s all good, the ad has been corrected and we can now all move on lol, I hope to get a PS3 console myself though.
[..YouTube..] I guess the reason why we Nigerians are seemingly bent outta shape over this is because we have an image problem, and Nigeria is working hard to improve her image abroad, especially in regards to the emails scams and stuff. Any publicity that fuels Nigeria’s bad image does kinda piss off “on edged/sensitive Nigerians”. Anyone seen District-9? Yea a lot of the crap on there about Nigeria and her citizens are not true, I’m just putting it out there before people start making crazy comments on here
[..YouTube..] bernie buncalan is the man!!
[..YouTube..] i never say things like this, but…NIGERIA SHOULD BE NUKED
[..YouTube..] that’s like if we said something about north Korea being a dictator ship and they demanded an apology it would be ridiculous just like this.
[..YouTube..] Fuck Nigerian messed up… lol
[..YouTube..] It really wouldn’t be wrong or out of place if a North Korean demands apology because someone called North Korea a dictatorship country; although that’s the way it seems, but I bet there are lots of North Koreans who are not cool with the whole dictatorship thingy, its not like they have a choice or something. They can’t just denounce their North Korean citizenship because their leader is a dictator.
[..YouTube..] Yo, you’re not even making any sense
[..YouTube..] i personally think pple make a big deal out of nothing. its an advert for Gss sake. if its true its they is nuffin to get angry over true things. if they said zimbabwean billionnaire its true cause evryone is there. its only joke.
[..YouTube..] I just edited my Hosts file to block all traffic from Nigeria. Ahhhhh, clean internet again.
[..YouTube..] i have nothing against north koreans in the broad sence just there government. their brainwashed to think its great and they are trapped in thier country
[..YouTube..] dont worry, u cant understand !
[..YouTube..] or maybe if we said americans love 12 yr old pussy seeing they like raping 12 year olds and killing their families when they are done in iraq that would be ok, i mean all americans arnt soldiers but they did do as a nigerian i now see ur point. Nigerians are scammer even thought the number dont even get up to 1% and the americans are rapists, got it.
[..YouTube..] wow that really made sence, where the hell did you get the idea that all americans are racist and becides what fucked up country are you from.
[..YouTube..] is that a WOLF SHIRT that dude is wearing? OH SWEET AWESOME
[..YouTube..] ok not all Americans are racist we just like to make fun of everyone that is not Amarican. Oh and its cuz we are better, its that simple.
[..YouTube..] Ha, typical American sentiment. That’s why half the world doesn’t like America/Americans. Sure America is great, but that doesn’t necessarily mean she is better than other countries, and it doesn’t automatically make Americans superior to citizens of other countries either. You’re right about all Americans not being racist though.
[..YouTube..] Thats true we may not have the right to throw it in everyones face but when it comes to people saying that we are racist over a statment mad for a ps3 ad come on really. so what im saying as an Amarican we can say what we want. and for this ad it happens to be true
[..YouTube..] Exactly, that’s what I’m talking about. It’s wrong or less credible for people to say all Americans are racists, just as it is wrong or less credible for someone to say all Nigerians are fraudulent. That doesn’t rule out the fact that “some” Americans are racists, and “some” Nigerians are fraudulent, its common knowledge. All I’m saying is this: people should refrain from labeling a whole group of people (a country in this case) as one thing (racist or fraudulent in this case) end of story!
[..YouTube..] don’t know who you are but this it the best comment i’ve read so far!!
[..YouTube..] Actually what he says doesnt make any sense. “You cant believe anything you read on the Internet, otherwise I’d be a Nigerian Millionaire by know”… No… some Nigerian would probably be a millionaire and you would be broke!And I’m sorry to Nigerians who are offended, but that is currently the label that your country has in the international community, and thats why it is used. If you don’t like it, do something about it.
[..YouTube..] That’s true about the label thingy, and something is being done to eradicate it to it’s barest minimum. Something as serious as that doesn’t just go away overnight, the Nigerian government and people have all hands on deck to tackle this issue, and in the near future, it’ll be a thing of the past. This whole stuff is just crazy and getting out of hand; I just want people to know and realize that there’s more to Nigeria and Nigerians than just been tagged as “fraudulent”.
[..YouTube..] it does everything? then why the hell playstation store is not available in some countries in europe? i bought my ps3 christmas 2007 now its 2009 and still we dont get anything from sony..this problem is not on xbox30 xboxlive works in every country…
[..YouTube..] in only does everything?ya why can`t it fucking play ps2 games!!!
[..YouTube..] yes but what is wrong with doing it as a joke
[..YouTube..] before you insult them just think you really want to play ps2 games on an hdtv with hdmi and all
[..YouTube..] im just saying they dint have the right to say”it only does everything”
[..YouTube..] I received e-mail from Nigerian who want me to buy a new PS3 instead of him… hmm
[..YouTube..] I don’t get it; the Nigerian wants you to buy him/her a PS3, or he/she is persuading you to buy a PS3 for yourself?
[..YouTube..] YO look close “bernie” is wearing a keyboard cat shirt!, wiki confirms
[..YouTube..] Doesn’t fly either, maybe they should just drop the campaign? Or maybe you shouldn’t take the ad so seriously.
[..YouTube..] srry
[..YouTube..] 360 is trash. Masturbate to Master Chief.
[..YouTube..] That man must be thought some senses any time he is seen in Nigeria. Nigerians need to ban Sony products for 10yrs.
[..YouTube..] It’s racist! It racist! It’s racist! Baaaw!!! I’m going to sue Sony! Seriously, shut the fuck up people, it’s true.
[..YouTube..] Ok. Ahem…here’s my two cents. The thing is millions of people have lost money to Nigerian scam artists. This scammers predominatly based in Nigeria actually con people by exploiting peoples greed (in a nutshell). This isn’t Nigeria tho. Most Nigerians are actually good and honest people but there are bad apples. It’s a step too far however for a Corporation such as Sony to get involved and then propagate such damaging stereoptype. Both in this advert and in its new movie ‘District 9′…
[..YouTube..] Sony should know better, hence the apology.I have been to Nigeria and the people are warm and treat westerners like royalties. If you have your wits about you and aren’t looking to get ’something’ for ‘nothing’ then you should be ok.
[..YouTube..] Sony was making fun of a fax spam that has been blasting US fax machines for more than a decade. I’m sure Sony doesn’t hate Nigeria! This commercial is also damn funny! Bernie the rumor monger acting like so many internet forum posters and Kevin like Sony’s no-comment during all the PS3 price drop/redesign rumors! ha!
[..YouTube..] True but this apology you speak of is stupid if Nigeria is pissed they should oh I dont know DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE SCAMMERS.This we are sorry Nigeria thing is just stupid when I see an apology from Nigeria of all the crap their scammers are flooding my inbox with.Then and only then will an apology be an option.
[..YouTube..] No need for that i was just pointing out, “it does everything” is a nice marketing slogan.Oh and the reason it doesn’t play PS2 games is the PS2 is still selling and making money, Sony would be shooting themselves in the foot by putting back compatibility back into the PS3.
[..YouTube..] It only does everything. except play ps2 games.
[..YouTube..] Geez People, Enjoy the commercial, shut it about politics and Nigeria…….Wow.
[..YouTube..] I know! I have the 80GB and it can’t even run Ratchet & Clank.
[..YouTube..] well mine does!
:D:D
[..YouTube..] most corrupted coutry in the world
[..YouTube..] yeah,its getting really old.Fuck off,stop whining about it.
[..YouTube..] STFU, if Nigerian scammers didn’t exist the joke wouldn’t either. the world is filled with over sensitive pussies. If the Nigerian “government” cared about its country’s image that much they would crack down on the scammers.
[..YouTube..] Go learn your geography mate…
[..YouTube..] Keep running your mouth gaywad, the Nigerian government is actually doing something about Nigeria’s image. Ever heard about the EFCC? Ya, google it; get your facts straight before you start talking shit. These scammers are less than 4% of Nigeria’s over 150 million people.
[..YouTube..] lLOL @ ppl who bring Nigerian stuff to this hahaha really go get a life
[..YouTube..] 4% seriously? So a nation of 150 million 4 in every 100 people are scammers? That doesn’t sound good at all
[..YouTube..] No it does make sense -_- if he believed it were true, he’d also believe he’d be a millionaire if he followed along with it but since he knows it’s not true and it’s a scam he isn’t going to become a nigerian millionaire.
[..YouTube..] Yea, about 4% or less, compared to how the media is always making it look like “all” Nigerians are scammers; and from experience I speculate that over 15% of the American population is involved in some kinda scam – Pretty much all of y’all cheat on ya’lls taxes, file false claims to the government in order to get benefits like unemployment, disability etc.. Did you hear about the corruption scandal in New Jersey lately? Believe it or not, America is among the top 5 most corrupt nations to me.
[..YouTube..] This whole commercial thingy is kinda funny to me and not that even big a deal and I’m Nigerian. No country is a saint when it comes to corruption, I just get somewhat ticked off and irritated when people leave stupid comments on here, especially none-factual comments.
[..YouTube..] Ummmm dude, I don’t know if U actually saw the video/commercial or not, but Nigeria was mentioned in the commercial, so that pretty much makes people “bring Nigerian stuff” to this. Get it???
[..YouTube..] Exactly if Nigera don’t like people making jokes, do something about the fucking scammers. If the Nigeria email scams didn’t exist,…the joke wouldn’t either.Simple as that.
[..YouTube..] doesn’t bother me, I think it’s funny and I have nigerian roots.lol…everyone is maken a big deal of it
[..YouTube..] As arrogant as this commercial is about Ps3’s price drop, I still love it!
[..YouTube..] great commercial hu
[..YouTube..] You know that sound that played at the end of the add? I think that was used in the old PS1 game adverts.Yeah, its not that interesting.
[..YouTube..] ya it was
[..YouTube..] u know spam only work on those who are stingy also…
[..YouTube..] because of the the crisis in the region..u gat to do anything to survive rather than kill urself like the way the couple in maryland did because they lost their job due to the credit crunch…(they also killed their kids.. scamming is better)
[..YouTube..] Screw Nigeria. They are too big now that they can’t take a joke?
[..YouTube..] Ha! I’m Nigerian (well, my parents are anyway) and I found it hilarious. It’s a dig, ribbing, a slight joke. Anyone offended by this needs to get over themselves. They act as though Nigeria does NOT have a disproportionate number of 419 scams. How about placing the blame where it really belongs – young Nigerian men that give Nigerians a bad name.(For the record, I am NOT a PlayStation fan, or of Sony and their monopolistic tendencies, just calling a spade a spade).
[..YouTube..] Ouch.Touche, dude. Touche.
[..YouTube..] Screw it if i sound ignorant, but could you explain the nigerian joke to me. And the world war I one. Please and thank you?
[..YouTube..] he is wearing oxen’s three keyboard cat moon t-shirt!!!
[..YouTube..] Can’t help you with World War I (?), but the guy makes light of email scams where a guy promises you a bunch of cash if…you give him your bank account information, and the tendency of these offers to originate from Nigeria and other West African countries.
[..YouTube..] haha wtf?! cheesy American ad… you wouldn’t get that in the UK, oh well maybe you would….
[..YouTube..] nope, you wouldn’t. UK don’t do shit ads m8, shit ads get banned
[..YouTube..] why does this guy look like rocco from mega64 lol!
[..YouTube..] lol hahaha “other wise there be a Nigerien million air by now.”
[..YouTube..] yeah right thats a bunch a bull man it doesnt do exactly everything
[..YouTube..] Nigerian Scam: A common email scam is a guy claiming to be a royal or government official from a country (typically Nigeria) asking you to wire money to them so they can set up an account in your name and then make a large deposit of money that they themselves cannot touch. The reward is that they’ll let you keep part of the large payout. In reality, the money you transfer is gone.
[..YouTube..] The World War I joke came in because the Nigerian government got mad at Sony for associating their country with scam artists. So Sony switched the lines.Old: “You can’t believe everything you read on the internet. Otherwise I’d be a Nigerian millionaire by now.”New: “You can’t believe everything you read on the internet. That’s how World War I got started.”
[..YouTube..] i wonder why they changed the line from “…that’s how world war 1 got started…” to “….Nigerian millionaire..”The world war 1 line cracked me up
[..YouTube..] It’s the other way around. This is the uncensored version, whereas the censored (second) version is the one with WWI. They had some complaining Nigerians.
[..YouTube..] Geeez, Nigeria is so touchy. It honestly angers me when a goverment gets so sensitive, it shows they got nothing actually good going for them.
[..YouTube..] It was stupid of them to change it just to be politically correct, but the World War I line is actually funnier.
[..YouTube..] I love how at the end of the commercial it says PLAY STATION in that wired voice!
5 stars
[..YouTube..] EVRYBODY KNOW NIGERIA IS EBAY SCAMMERS SO THE ADD ITS TRUE.and actualy you would be a broke nigerian, cuz no ppl fall for that shit on ebay.
[..YouTube..] thanks
[..YouTube..] where i am,they play all of em.
[..YouTube..] we have a wii now and we fucking sick of having it to know fucking end
[..YouTube..] You know, I always thought that thing said “Please be safe”.
[..YouTube..] awesome and weird voice at 0:29 and im gonna get the PS3 slim but with a memory of 250GB
so yeah i want to download more cheap games instead of disks:( so just wait untill it comes out
[..YouTube..] You can also upgrade a PS3 (with 80gb or 120gb) and upgrade the harddrive to 600/700/800 gb.!:)
[..YouTube..] why don’t you buy a ps3 than?:P
[..YouTube..] So, the fat nerd is the average ps3 user?? LOL!!
[..YouTube..] That voice has been in Playstation commercials ever since the very first PS1 commercials. They just brought it back again, to give ppl a deja vu
[..YouTube..] thank you i really didnt know so yeah im getting it though but with 250 GB i convinced my dad to get my 3 games while he was drunk LOL ROFL god bless Corona
[..YouTube..] haha lol I only got the 40gb PS3, im possibly getting a 300gb hard drive for lik 50bucks ;D
[..YouTube..] No, thats the average Xbox owner, because the fat nerd in the commercial doesn’t own a PS3 yet, hence he is asking about it’s price drop.=]
[..YouTube..] LOL! I’m trying to convince my parents for a PS3. Unfortunately they don’t drink as much as they used to. So it’s a bit more difficult.
[..YouTube..] LOL!! dude, Your the man.
[..YouTube..] which games did you get?
[..YouTube..] hah thats werid because i got him(my dad) on camera drunk saying that i coud get one, then he denied it and then said i will get you it in christmas i dont really care about waiting 2 months i just want it:)
[..YouTube..] i dont have it yet im getting it in christmas and im thinking of getting little big planet,Borderlands,batman arsym asylm,modern warfare 2, and especially God of War 3 i cant wait for that (march 31st 2010:) damn thats half a year:(!!
[..YouTube..] great PS3 deal on ebay, 60gb, 8 games. Go to ebay and search 130340884484
[..YouTube..] great PS3 deal, 60GB, 8 games. Go to ebay and search 130340884484
[..YouTube..] i love tht guy ahha
[..YouTube..] I can’t understand why a price cut, a new slimline console, a great range of exclusive title’s and a catchy worldwide ad campaign could result in more system being sold oh wait.
[..YouTube..] ps3 sucks
[..YouTube..] as opposed to what? the wii? the 360? ha! you make me laugh out loud
[..YouTube..] u suck
[..YouTube..] SONYIS BACK
[..YouTube..] What was censored?
[..YouTube..] 360 sucks
[..YouTube..] @Mysterbyg They censored the “Nigerian millionaire” part out of later commercials because some people were offended, somehow. I think it was a load of bullshit that they had to change that. They weren’t trying to be racist; instead it was a joke about how little Nigerian currency is compared to the American dollar. A million Nigerian “dollars” is a mere $6,590 USD. Once again, I think it was pretty stupid to have to change it but some people get pissed too easy.
[..YouTube..] YOU ROCK SONY!!!
[..YouTube..] I love when it says playstation at the end
[..YouTube..] Dude, I have both PS3 and XBox 360 and I can say that Xbox sucks. PS3 is a lot better and more powerful.
[..YouTube..] The “Nigerian Millionaire” joke is a reference to a spam e-mail a lot of people have gotten where you’re told to help a Nigerian who’s friend is a prince or some bullshit like that.
[..YouTube..] Most Ftw commercial ever? Quite possibly.
[..YouTube..] It only does everything…..except plays PS2 games! I still love the PS3 though!
[..YouTube..] yep but i am going to rig it to play the ps2 xD
[..YouTube..] same here except differnt games ( i am a fangirl of sony xD )
[..YouTube..] agree.
[..YouTube..] @rikulover3222 How can you rig it to play PS2 games? You can’t hack a PS3.
[..YouTube..] lmao i was joking my game stop where i went to said that there is a ps3 they have that can play ps2 games i forgot what it was called and i checked online and all the websites i looked at said that a ps3 can play ps2 games.
[..YouTube..] @rikulover3222 Yeah the 60gb and the first 80gb models play PS2 games. I have the first 80gb model!
[..YouTube..] slim or fat? (ps3 not you lol)
[..YouTube..] @rikulover3222 ha ha ha my cosuin thought there was no thing as girls playing in PS3 consoles or games. Please add me or sub me thanks and to make it officia are you a REAL GAMER ? bye
[..YouTube..] @rikulover3222 Fat. If you really want to play PS2 games on your PS3, get the 60gb or the first 80gb models. Both of those models plays PS2 games. My PS3 plays PS2 games, but I never use it for PS2 games.
[..YouTube..] @rikulover3222

[..YouTube..] thank you, I’ll tell my parents that. (i am getting one for Christmas)
[..YouTube..] its 299??
[..YouTube..] haha i usually hate most commercial but this one is funny
[..YouTube..] Hahahaha, i always wondered why they took that part out that was my favorite part
[..YouTube..] Hahahaha, i always wondered why they took that part out that was my favorite part
[..YouTube..] Whats different from this and the censored one?
[..YouTube..] ‘Cant believe everything you read in the internet’.in the uncensored one he says ‘other wise i would be a Nigerian millionaire by now’. (referring to that scam that people were getting in their emails.. of inheriting millions from a Nigerian king)..While on the the censored he say’s ‘that’s how world war one started’.

[..YouTube..] in the original he says “I would be a nigerian millionare” which is a reffrence to an internet scam, on the censored one they changed it to “thats how WW1 was started”
[..YouTube..] good job wasting your time searching up a PS3 video just to say something stupid like that…
[..YouTube..] so why did they censor it?
[..YouTube..] who know.. maybe they thought it would offend all the people who actually got scammed by the Nigerian’s..
[..YouTube..] I love these commercials!!!!!!!
[..YouTube..] i thought the WWI line was funnier anyway.
[..YouTube..] your a bitch cunt
[..YouTube..] lo5er get a life
[..YouTube..] tu madre wtf are saying get a life your name screams gay who the fuk has the name sith lord wtf is sith
[..YouTube..] yes in a way.^^
[..YouTube..] ??? wow some one has anger issues.
[..YouTube..] I like these commercials, in the past the PS3 was advertised to look like this GOD like system but with all the bad rep and lack of sales there now touching base on a more friendly realistic level. Adding a humorist representative replying to everyday people questions and comments concerning the system. It shows you don’t need fast moving clips overdubbed with heavy metal music or annoying white rooms with art crap flying all over the place to sell a console.
[..YouTube..] it pissed off Nigeria.
[..YouTube..] not really a big market lol.
[..YouTube..] i dont gt the uncensored part
[..YouTube..] these commercials are great.
