*laughs* Yeah a tonne of people were disappointed that it wasn't an ad for Katamari Damarcy 3. But How often are ads NOT pilfered concepts from elsewhere?

Meanwhile:

OOoh! Bribery! I like it XD

SO! Some things I like to know first (which I may disregard bwahaha):
favourite colour(s)
favourite foods
any obsessions?

The rest I'll get from just knowing you and reading your elljay interests and such ;) ;) :D

Well, obviously I like women. I also love Jane Austen, and anything related to Arthuirian Legend. And I love poetry. Oscar Wilde, Shakespeare, the Romantics... Mmmm :)
I don't really have any favourite foods, but I love cherries and chocolate and stone fruit, and anything involving double cream ;)
My favourite colours are pink and green, but I like all earthy tones as well. I don't really want a super bright journal...
Oh, and I'm kinda blind, so the font can't be too small :)

Is that enough...?

There's the Great Wall of China Bigpond ad .^_^.
And then.... the unmentionable underarm (I can't find this one on googlutube) and nipple ads. IEW! X.X

BUT most ads are totally stolen, and what's worse is when they don't want to pay royalties for a popular song so they make a song that sounds almost (but don't sue us) like the original. Cheap bastards!

watching this again after having seen the game footage... that's just f-ed up. They REALLY ripped it off... completely. The ad agency might have got the company's attention by them thinking wow, what a great idea - but they probably didn't realize what a rip off it was. :/ I bet the game owners have the right to sue over a rip off as blatant as this, unless they too ripped it off from somewhere.

Seems like it would've been a great game to play!

LOL Dude, as we're talking above half of the of ads out are rip offs of games or movies, which are in turn rip offs of other things. And they say our culture doesn't recycle. ;)

Ya, I was agreeing with you lot, but I didn't see the bit about the game itself being ripped off elsewhere.. *checks* In which case of course it'd be legit prolly...

I'm not sure they would actually have to legally clear anything. The concept of a ball rolling around and picking stuff up and getting bigger and bigger as it goes isn't a new concept that is solely bound to Katamari Damarcy, and that people are going ZOMGZ KATAMARI! means that its cross-promotional so its almost in the company's favour that the ad is so instantly attributed to the game...

Mmm, ya. I hadn't ever seen the concept before, though, and it seemed so identical to the ads... ya. But yes, concepts tend to have been done before, apart from the occasional brilliant thing on new inventors and a very rare few games...
