Quantcast

Gaming commercials that'll make you say WTF!?

We pilfer the archives and dig up some disturbing, surreal and utterly confusing adverts

Words: GamesRadar UK


Pole Position 
WTF!? An ear-splitting, guitar shredding, engine-revving wall of sound assault on the senses that viciously stabs your attention into submission. But check out those totally sweet special effects.


Resident Evil 4 
WTF!? Do zombies really lactate?  






Super Mario Sunshine
WTF!?
Gay.





Xbox
WTF!?
 Microsoft gives them an elegant woman playing a game of cat and mouse with a mechanical pie chucker and the Japanese still didn't want the Xbox. Ungrateful shits.

The NES commercial seemed oddly threatening.

Wow, They don't make them that good anymore. I blame the diminishing popularity of LSD.

Clean is better than dirty, and dirty's meaner than clean!!!!!!

Simply calling a commercial 'gay' does not a witty feature make. It puts you on level with an 11 year-old Youtube commenter. Now I'm all for embracing immaturity but it's got to actually be funny and not just tired and homophobic. You're better than that, Gamesradar.

but dude... That ad was really gay. Did you watch it? If so, how would u describe it?
Black_X_1111  - 11 months 21 days ago 
yes you are. Shame, shame upon you all Games Radar. Loved the article though, too bad a lot of the movies have been removed.

@Wartooth909
The ad is clearly outrageous and I believe the writer is capable of writing something far more amusing and clever than just calling it 'gay.' The feature can be funny without singling out and insulting a minority group. It's 2008 and when someone calls a thing that's stupid, bad or ridiculous 'gay' they instantly sound like they're in junior high.
Sorry to be pedantic but, you know, don't be a bigot.
Wartooth909  - 11 months 19 days ago 
But being a bigot is so much easer then accepting people for who the really are. People who arnt just like me scare me to death.

If you look in a recent dictionary, you'll actually see that gay is also defined as a negative adjective.
Who knows the writer could be from 1940 and thought the advert was very 'happy'.

@GodlikeApe: Which dictionary would that be, urbandictionary.com? OED and Webster's don't.
@Wartooth909: Cunning satire, congrats you're a troll.
