There are all kinds of ways to convince potential customers to buy your product but choosing the right method can be a delicate science... unless you're a video game publisher in which case, the more offensive the better! Resident Evil 5 and 6, Fallout 76 Splinter Cell, the PSP; you name it, it's been foisted in our faces in the worst way imaginable. Here are 10 Video Game Advertising Campaigns That Backfired Massively

I really liked the awareness of the Australasian part of the Asia-Pacific region. But just FYI: Papua New Guinea is basically run by private armies. You have to sign up with their protection racket to safely get anywhere in armored vans without being attacked by organised criminals (also run by the same private armies) on the road from the airport to your hotel. It's pretty hard for Ubisoft to top that... it's a super corrupt and dangerous country.

The only time having a paid actor brandishing a gun threatening people would work if he f he was surrounded by advertisements for the game, and was even wearing a shirt of the game, with other individuals around who can actually break character and say: “He’s just acting” while the guy can stay in character. They never did this, amiright?

the first watch dogs game is still one of my favorite ps4 games and one of my favorite open world games. i don't follow all this hype crap like many people do, but even if i had i still would have enjoyed it a lot. it was a great looking game for it's time and had some amazing mini games, the digital trips being my favorite. and for an open world game i don't remember running into any major glitches, and i played through the game several times. never understood all the hate that game got, it's such a good game. i paid full price for it and got way more than my money's worth, and now i'm getting the urge to play through it yet again.

@ninja_tony 3 года назад
@@RockU2Death5150 ok I actually have some knowledge on this because I used to manage a martial arts store that sold the “paperweights’. They are not the same thing, they are just made to appear similar to real brass knuckles. Actual brass knuckles by law are a certain weight and thickness, and the paperweights are specifically designed to fall below both of those metrics, and that is how they get away with it.

I'm guessing they never actually _played_ Absolution. Despite the crappy marketing, the actual gameplay was very much still the stealthy style the Hitman series was always known for. Pay attention and the story actually follows directly on from the mysterious bits from Blood Money. RPG wielding bondage nuns gave the game a much worse rep than it deserved.
@andyallwood
@andyallwood Год назад
I think some people like to moan about Absolution, because others do, and they want to fit in. It's definitely a stealthy game, as you have to do pretty much the whole game by avoiding getting caught. I love Absolution, and I thought the nuns were a good addition to the game, better than the usual generic enemies.
