POOL PARADISE! - Dark Jaguar - 14th April 2004

Has anyone seen the commercials for this new Gamecube game (also on PC)? I mean, they might as well have written "We played shots of the game while the absolute worst actor we could find read stuff into a cheap microphone". I mean, it's about the most amateur thing I've seen.


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 15th April 2004

Nope, haven't seen it...


POOL PARADISE! - Dark Jaguar - 15th April 2004

Honestly, it's like some local commercial, but if it's just a local game some people made, I have to wonder how they made it for Gamecube as well as PC.


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 15th April 2004

Know where we can find the commercial online?


POOL PARADISE! - Dark Jaguar - 15th April 2004

Why would I know that?


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 15th April 2004

Because then the rest of us could go "haha, i know!" instead of "...".


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 15th April 2004

I haven't seen the commercial either. Maybe it's some wierd Tulsa thing?


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 15th April 2004

Yeah... those weird Tulsananians.

I just realized I only see it late at night on Comedy Central. I have no idea why...

And just because you WANT it to be online doesn't mean you should expect me to have done it. I don't have a scanner, digital camera, or digital... camera... the moving picture kinds...

Okay, GameFAQs says the company is "Awesome Developments". I figure it's not just local if it's already listed at GameFAQs. What a stupid company name...

Okay, I don't know anything about the game itself, but apparently everyone at that message board (not that the opinion of ANYONE posting at a GameFAQ message board really says much) has seen it http://cgi.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.asp?board=919223&topic=13534118 so it's not local, it just LOOKS like some local ad. A bad local ad at that.

I never demanded that you show us the commercial, Miss Cranky Pants, I simply asked "Know where we can find the commercial online?".


POOL PARADISE! - Sacred Jellybean - 15th April 2004

I've seen that commercial. I've seen it twice, actually. Yeah, it's incredibly cheesey... although I'm not sure how one could made a billiards video game look exciting in the first place.


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 16th April 2004

If you got enough marketers in a room together they'd probabaly come up with something.


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 16th April 2004

I could come up with a great pool commercial!

Just show a bunch of people in a swimming pool, having a great time, and then go "SIKE!!! Not THAT kind of pool!! EAT TACO BELL!!!", then flash a screen or two and show what system it's for, finally followed by a "... or IS it...??!!!".

How could would THAT be! Eh?? EH?!


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 16th April 2004

How about this:

There is a nuclear holocaust. The entire world is engulfed in flames as the cities of the Earth are layed to waste one by one. Btw, the commercial is set to classical music. Random shots of people fleeing in terror. Bright flashes of light. Then the camera pans through the ruins of a city and stops at a pile of rubble. Sticking out of the rubble is a pool table. "There's all the time in the world to play...too bad you're DEAD!!" Flash game title on screen as the camera zooms out.


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 16th April 2004

That's almost as good as my idea!


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 16th April 2004

:D


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 16th April 2004

I kid because I love.


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 16th April 2004

:gay2:


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 16th April 2004

Love your idea!


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 16th April 2004

Oh...


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 16th April 2004

Yeesh.


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 16th April 2004

That was a pretty cool idea though, wasn't it?


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 16th April 2004

Stupenfucous.


POOL PARADISE! - Great Rumbler - 16th April 2004

Bojacksome!


POOL PARADISE! - OB1 - 16th April 2004

Booyah!
