WTF is up with that GameFly ad?

[johnjohn320]

The one where everyone's going beserk with anger, screaming their heads off, throwing TVs out windows, destroying furniture, punching things, pounding their heads through walls, etc. Then it says "never buy a bad game again." and gives you the schpeel to rent from GameFly.

K, I get the gag, but seriously? That's the best their ad committee could come up with? It's not even unique to their product-you could run that ad for anything. Rent games so that you won't go on a friggin roid rampage as a result of a disappointing purchase? Seriously? The ad itself is incredibly annoying too...one obnoxious scream to the next, crashing, banging...bah.

Its good enough to make you keep thinking of it then post on a forum about it isn't it?

I chuckled at the ad, which is a lot more than I get out of 95% of the commercials out there.

I got rid of my TV a long time ago. I'm glad I have no idea wtf you're talking about.

I chuckled. Which automatically made it one of the best commercials out there.
