This is an Xbox, too.

If no one in the meme thread can slap that bald chick’s dome on here I’ll be disappointed.

 

[Yoboman]

Crazy we only got a genuine face of the brand mascot 30 years later

 

[Bitstream]

Xbox eyeing up the sphere like:

 

[Celcius]

Very cool

 

[LordCBH]

Posters on Twitter have been about as unhinged as expected upon seeing this ad.



And by posters I mean bots

 

[sono]

Actually, that looks amazing

It should have ended with Astro holding up a GOTY trophy and the Indiana Jones PS5 release date.

 

[R6Rider]

The first animation made me think of how cool a black basketball with neon lines would be.

 

[Sintoid]

Everything on the Shere rise to a new level of awesomeness

 

[Spyxos]

Well made. I wonder how much a clip like this costs.

 

[DeepEnigma]

This is an Xball

FTFY

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I think I see some shimmering.

 

[semiconscious]

but i thought that what happens in vegas stays in vegas...

 

[R6Rider]

Well made. I wonder how much a clip like this costs.

According to Google:

The cost to advertise on the Las Vegas Sphere depends on the length of the ad campaign and when it appears:

• Super Bowl week: Companies pay between $1 million and $2 million for 12 hours of screen time on the Sphere's exterior. The price increases as the game day approaches, with prices on game day ranging from $1.5 million to $2 million.
  
• Single day: A single day of advertising costs around $450,000.
  
• Week-long campaign: A week-long ad campaign costs around $650,000.

Seems a bit off to me, idk

That's less than I thought. Does the Super Bowl only take place in Las Vegas?

No anisotropic filtering either.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

im just happy they didn't put Aloy or Aby in this ad.

 

[Xtib81]

Looks nice but that must have been expensive.

 

[onQ123]

More like Astro Bot took over

 

[DeepEnigma]

No anisotropic filtering either.

Only running at 9.6 terawatts as well.

 

[Cakeboxer]

$450,000 per day.

 

[HRK69]

Could've funded the Helldivers 2 Killzone thing with that

But noooooo

 

[FoxMcChief]

Very cool. I liked it when Xbox did it as well.

 

[DinoD]

$450,000 per day.

At first I was like "what a waste of money". Then I saw that it featured Astro Bot and I was like "money well spent"

 

[Dirk Benedict]

This is an Xbox, too.

Pachinko machines, too.

 

[SweetTooth]

You are right, I should have said bigger

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

Next to Nintendo, absolutely yes.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

Pure waste of money.

 

[nial]

Money well spent.

 

[nial]

Anyway, SIE can never spend enough on marketing, especially as they're pushing Astro and the bots as the mascots of the PlayStation brand more and more. This is fantastic to see.

Crazy we only got a genuine face of the brand mascot 30 years later

In a way, yes, even if the bots have existed for 11 years now with the launch of PS4.

 

[Synastry]

Wonderful display of the Game of the Year Astro bot.

 

[DAHGAMING]

Pure waste of money.

Money well spent.

Ok someone bring out the fucking "Neogaf" gif.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

We are the team Neogaf

 

[RayBoy]

That sphere is an Xbox

 

[Shmunter]

$450,000 per day.

That’s only for Kamala. Otherwise $45/day
