    Oh, Bobb’e J. Thompson. It seems like just yesterday you were spouting curse words and wrecking Paul Rudd’s tent in Role Models, and now you’re… selling PSPs as a fictional character named “Marcus Rivers”. Downgrade? Perhaps. I’m sure we’ll have a deep conversation with him about it as soon as he’s done swimming in his pool full of money.

    Sony’s going straight for Apple’s throat in this ad, calling out the iPhone as being built for “texting your grandma”, not playing “big boy games”. Hopefully Sony can pull off something amazing with their rumored Android-powered gaming phone, or this is going to make’em look pretty silly in the long run.
