Please Advertise the PS3 Version Effectively

[Kailok]

from the current state, it makes sense that they didn't do any commercial

more advertising = more people who going to play, quit and criticize the game

that's why they'll start advertising when they really think the game is ready

Ok, but that isn't what I'm asking for here. I'm not saying "ADVERTISE NAOW", I'm saying: "ADVERTISE EFFECTIVELY when you get close to selling the PS3 version". I wouldn't want them advertising the game right now. Not before we even get the battle updates. However, the fact that we'll probably be getting the PS3 version within the next 6 months, they should at least start thinking up some marketing strategies for their product.

Whoa, yeah? I missed them giving a date, where did this happen?

Way to mis-read the OP...

Anyway. Agreed. Advertise.

But the advertisement should have been before the game released. Which was before 95% of people found out it was garbage then.

I think they should change the box art as well when they finally finish revamping the game. They may also want to consider adding a subtitle such as "A World Reborn".

I saw some online advertising in the form of video ads on review sites - clearly targeting people who are already online.

I also suspect an advertising campaign is somewhat outside of Yoshi-P's domain of control. The Squeenix Bigwigs will probably control how much is spent on advertising this title.

Well of course, I'm just hoping that with the atrocity that was FFXIV when it first released, the "bigwigs" will realize this game needs to be put out there for the PS3. As producer, if Yoshida at least knows of some ideas, maybe he can bring them to the table. Better to give them something than never bring it up, yes?

I dont remember when was the last time i saw Square-enix advertise anything effectively. I dont even remember seeing anything special for FF XIII. I constantly see on tv advertising for Blizzard games, ubisoft, EA, Nintendo.......but never do i see anything for SE.

It's one area where they have to step it up. No one even talks or mentions the game. My local gamestop store never holds more than a dozen copies of the game. Advertise like crazy for crying out loud. Not to mention that JRPG's are always looked down on in todays video game market which isnt helping them either.
