so we all know from this thread that the9 (PS2`s China publisher) has signed a contract with Didier Drogba to make him PS2`s face

so here`s the actual marketing part, i assume?

You'd think China was no different from America just looking at those shots.

But... you can also see why they're in league with those terrorists, the New Conglomerate!

[Carnage]

Of this I approve, as China is closer to Australia then the USA... and I need a good ping.

[Braveliltoaster]

those chinese are crazy about their PS2

[IgloGlass]

China, the definition of TR x)

[Shadowrath]

because your opinion is that handegg is football, while they dont really use their feet that much other than for running, nor do they use a ball :3

Is it me, or China trying to use PS2 to one up on Korea in gaming obsession? Kinda like they are trying to look down on Korea for Starcraft.

"You have 200 marines? Oh, such a funny small number, we got 2000 players, PLAYERS BITCHES!!!"

Hah, this! We American's call it football. The rest of the world calls what we call soccer, football.

We should also hurry up and set up the education system to ween our youth off the imperial system and into metrics, like the rest of the world.

While America is the land of the free and has some of the most innovative minds in the world, it's also ironically stuck in teaching old, dated standards.

I agree with the metric system, but damn, people get too sensitive about there being different names for things.
It can be football AND soccer.
It can be a lift AND an elevator.
They can be french fries AND chips.
Yo dawg, I heard you like f*gs. Using a combination of American and British English, now you can be a f*g when you smoke a f*g while you do a f*g.

The one thing that I can't f*cking stand is the way British English often uses collective nouns as a plural, rather than as a singular
If the team IS Spain, and Spain won the game, then Spain IS the winner... not are the winners

This one annoys me too, but you gotta just roll with it I guess. Anyway, it's pretty cool to see the Chinese so excited about Planetside 2. Although it's kinda hard not to be excited for this game!

I'm American, but come on. The entire rest of the world calls it football, which makes sense.

Football: You kick a ball with your foot.

(American) Football: You carry and throw a lemon.

I like the term hand-egg, though the pigskin isn't really egg-shaped. Still makes more sense :P

ANYWAYS, don't correct people for using terminology that's correct in every country but ours. xD

im pretty sure this is old news. just saying.
