Sony Promotes PS3 with Project Gotham (Again)

Home : News : News Story

Sony are at it again. This time, they've used a screenshot from the Xbox 360 game PGR 3 to promote a PlayStation 3 campaign in Spain.

In January you'll remember Sony used a screenshot from PGR3 to promote their own upcoming racer Gran Turismo HD. That attempt back-fired when gamers picked up on the mistake, and promptly laughed out loud.

Well now it seems Sony are at it again. This time, they've used a screenshot from PGR3 to promote a PlayStation campaign in Spain. The car in the screenshot is a Ferarri F430. Sony could have almost gotten away with it... if it weren't for that darned PGR3 number plate!

Update: They've now pulled the PGR3 screenshot from the site and replaced it with a bunch of shots from the PS3 game Ridge Racer. Smooth.
