    I don't think they enrolled all those actors and set up all that for just a minute video. If they did, when they were done they looked at it and said, "I think we got something here." and by George, you do.

    Did anyone else notice Agent 47 never showed his face and he was in like half of the shots? Being an Xbox fan, this ad is awesome. I want a Playstation 3. Now we have to wait for Microsoft's comeback ripoff commercial.

    Loved it!! Even got a lump in my throat towards the end. It's nice when Sony actually wants to give a little something back to it's fan base, even as small as a video of "live action" ver. of it's popular franchises for it's system. Now if only Hollywood could put as much effort as this little short!!!!!

    I thoroughly enjoyed it and all, but why did they tease an announcement... FOR A COMMERCIAL?

    Anybody else notice Ratchet behind agent 47 during Ezio's speech?
    I can't think of anything cooler than imagining every video game character getting together to share war stories.

    Who was that guy playing Nathan Drake and the guy playing Cole? So many of the actors in this ad were spot on. That's the problem with Hollywood. They try to make a video game movie and instead of finding good, unknown, actors who actually fit the role, they waste their time trying to cast some well known forty-something year old. Mark Wahlberg anyone?

    The best part was them pairing the ACTUAL voice actors with a person who looked just like the characters. In a perfect world, that's how every video game movie would be made

    @JohnnyBuku
    yes this was an advertisement, but the message was more of a "thank you gamers for your support". They made this with Playstation Gamers in mind Not just the (casual) consumers. Don't get me wrong, which they should be doing, But...Just have a mindset of Sony "From Us to You" attitude, then you'll enjoy it more :)

    Awe inspiring commercial, very empowering. Oh, and Nate--Lightning isn't a challenge so much as she is a challenger. You've been warned.

    my own only possible complaint would be Kratos. its like, his head isnt shaped right. but i guess there isnt always gonna be somebody who looks exactly like every character

    Haha that was pretty awesome, some of the actors were a bit too beefy steriod injected or rubber suited looking, but still awesome.
