Lost Odyssey Promo Commercial, WTF?

[kC]

Ok, is anyone else confused by promo commercial for this game? I mean Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit" is playing during this promo...wtf? White Rabbit is riddled with drug references that ties with Alice and Wonderland and here we have this video game about the "Magic Power Industrial Revolution". :eyebrow:

I don't know it just doesn't sit right with me and in my opinion was a terrible choice for the commercial. I just sat there with a look of utter confusion when I heard the song start playing and then I started to see this imagery for something that did not match what I was hearing in the least...Whoever it was that sat there thinking about a great way to promote this video game and said "i know! We'll use White Rabbit!" needs a slap in the face...While White Rabbit is a great song it just doesn't fit in the video game world AT ALL. :shakefist

I saw it on TV. I was sitting on the ole couch reading my emails and all of the sudden I heard "White Rabbit" coming from my TV and I looked up and there it was...

Call me a saiko but I actually liked the commercial. It was very western and grabbed my attention thanks to the song. I practically did an anime fall when I heard that the plot would be another "main guy loses his memory!" deal. But the commercial sparked interest in the game for me.

I really like that they went with something different

Good review...

I don't see myself getting it, and it'd prolly sell well on a Japanese system.

Looks good tho.

Yea it seems prettty interesting but the promo was just a WTF? moment.
I see alot of friends on mine purchasing it, it's not really my kinda game tho. The charatcer/costume designs are nice.
