Xbox is tight, Yo
« on: October 21, 2003, 11:48:15 AM »
Here's one: Puff 'P Diddy' Combs is now a celebrity spokesmen for Xbox.  Read this statement, and you'll swear they're talking about the savior:  

Quote

P.Diddy was the perfect fit as our first celebrity voice because he embodies the same spirit as xbox". said xbox's director of brand marketing. Don Hall. 'He's multi faceted, has made a significant social impact, and pulls millions of people together in a positive way with his powerhouse talents"


LoL.  Now Nintendo should go out and get the real talent, The Beastie Boys.  They've said they liked Nintendo before, go get them.

Uh oh, I'm going to have to go get an Xbox now that P. Diddy is sponsoring it.

Actually, he should sponsor Gamecube, and they could dress him up in a Diddy Kony outfit

This actually causes me to dislike Xbox.  I was kind of indifferent before, taking only occasional shots , but now, blec!

I think it is a sign of weakness to have to resort to celebrity prowess...

I didn't say that it was a sign of desperation...just that it's kind of sad to see companies(like Pepsi) resorting to star power to sell their products...(which Ninty hasn't done, at least from what I've seen...

THANK GOD.  I thought The Omen had gone all lame on us from the thread title, and I was dreading coming in here and bashing him.

You make me proud Omen.

I thought The Rock was Xbox's celebrity spokesman.
Oh well. Times change.
Nintendo should use Christina Arguilera's hot ass bod to market GC2. Sex sells, so why not succumb to the power!

Who was promoting the hell out of Dreamcast back in its hayday? Fred Durst, was it?

And who would've thought at that time that Durst would outlast Sega?  Frightening times indeed...

I agree, P.Diddy is exactly like the XBox:
No quality, no content, a clone of others but strangely popular.

I didn't know that Puff Daddy was P. Diddy until about 3 months ago. I suppose I'm not like everyone else in my generation!

Actually, 50 cent is like Xbox fanboys, and Puff, like KDR said, is the system.

Okay, now that we know that the PS2 is in reality a PC and the XBox shares a lot with a rap star, doesn't that make us feel a lot better about having chosen the GC?

Nintendo should get some random bum off the street to be their "celebrity" image. . . it'd give a hobo money, and it'd be hilarious.
