Is this even real?!

I thought the same thing when I first saw that. Before I saw the pic, I was like wtf, someone is over-reacting, then I saw it, and was like, maybe not. Thing is, it isn't racist at all, and here is why.

Go there and you'll see that this was a series of adds. One with each color dominating and one stand off. Racy? Yes. Racist? Not really. I mean, sure, when it comes down to it, to different colored people are squaring off and struggling against one another. But it is just a personification of the PSP's, and the different colored people are a very real representation of that. At least that is a very innocent point of view. Seriously, this wasn't meant to be offensive, and I can see, on paper in a conference room, the marketing strategy behind this. I mean, it clearly gets the point across, it had instant power, and it has started all hell of conversation. But by itself, yeah, it looks bad as hell. Once all the ducks are in a row and you can see where they were going with it, it isn't bad. Is it a bad decision? That would depend on Sony's goal, and how many people are going to be pissed off over it.
