Here is a x box commercial that was banned in the UK just a few days after it was released, because of brain dead people with nothing else better to do than complain and b*tch because they cant deal with the topic of death, well you can all see it here. It rocks thumbsup.gif

Kick ass X box commercial

All the best

Man I love that commercial. They ran it here a long time ago, but I don't think they ever banned it.
Faeden
Yep the UK has become far to politically correct. What harm is that avert going to cause? do they think pregnant women are going to be shooting there kids across the countryside for fun ? its silliness.

All the best

That was awsome, now i just need to find a coputer with sound, and it will improve tenfold. And yes, he died, that was the whole symbolism with the coffin.

Oy! Now that's not fair, keep those comments as far away from MJ. Geesh, how rude.
Anyway, the commercial was cool.

The ITC upheld complaints from at least one woman who had suffered a miscarriage and several with serious illness. We allow far worse commericials, (the bear whos gone mad, anti-smoking ads, drink-driving ads etc) the difference is they are upsetting to a lot of people but have a serious message and are not just trying to sell us a games console. I liked it though.

Anyone seen the "haunted car" as (its a jump out, shock one)

I haven't seen this yet. I guess it didn't make it to Canada.

It was crazy though. Strange but cool.
