Vorak

Anyone rember this?
Anyone got the transcript?
Personaly i prefer the other one, about the same time. I think it was for a Tekken game, the one with the guy sitting at a table with knives swirling around his head...

I recognise that one but I don't know much about it. I've been personally looking for a copy of an ad I seen in the cinema a couple of times, it was filmed in the Dublin mountains especially for the Irish market with a leprechaun and a strange looking icecream van selling blue icecream. The leprechaun has a mad Dublin accent.

If anyone has it, let me know .


Here's a link to an article about the ad campain http://archives.tcm.ie/businesspost/2001/07/15/story656990928.asp

Oh I remember that advert alright. Can't believe it's that long ago!!

Long before that I remember some guy with specs going around rooms with metal doors (I think) with the slogan "Do not underestimate the power of PlayStation"

This Christmas, get them 'Stick'. Better than you get them Playstation!

That was the best PS ad. They ran quite a few reverse psychology ads for Playstation when it came out.

I remember the alien girl one, but nothing about the ad springs to mind.

I remember it because a girl in my class used to look like the girl in the ad.
