I have a feeling that we ain't seen nothin yet. If you think about it, the only new thing that SOE has to promote is Planetside 2, (EQ Next is still a ways off) and since they have a whole marketing department...well those people need something to do.

Re: Looks like PS2 is being promoted well


They're using one of the most effective ways to promote a game. It's basically all based on word of mouth, add in some "exciting gameplay footage" get people excited and it spreads like wildfire(I've even told 3 people about this game I'm so convinced). Eventually the population will explode for this game, this is even more true since they're going to be using a f2p model.

Not to mention all these game sites listing it is helping a fair bit, but I doubt it's anywhere near as effective as word to mouth, MAYBE if it gets in the top 3 or 5.

Although this wasn't SOE's doing, XFX just posted this link on Facebook.

Although, we've probably all seen it (posted on the forums yesterday), it still means that XFX indirectly promoted PS2 to 15000+ people.

Re: Looks like PS2 is being promoted well


its everywhere, I have a google news alert for PS2 going and there are articles all over the place about that video and PSU is getting credited with the vid

I do find it remarkable that SOE doesn't release the clip to us in HD,it would be nicer if all the new ppl seeing the new vid saw it in a pristine setting instead of a clip of a clip

Everything from SOE happend after we found it. I guess they didnt think it would happen that fast. After we got our hands on it, the plan was spoiled, and now its running itself.

Vid appeared on PCGAMER, RPS, etc etc etc. Wait for the next view update, im sure it hit the 10k already.

Yea how often do they update that thing anyway?

We are getting a fair amount of traffic from that YouTube video alone.

Hamma is sitting in front of the APHACHE console, twiddling his thumbs.

I totally forgot to mention - I was argueing about MMOs with my mom today and made her watch this video, claiming that this is the best and only pvp mmo. She said that it looks neat, but shooters are not her type of thing. She also called Higby a cutie.

They should set a goal for facebook fans to get 50,000+ Right now its nearly 30,000. I thinks getting quite a bit of promotion, but I haven't seen it on the TV or anything yet.
