I come back to this ad periodically. While it's obviously a marketing campaign, there really is a profound life message within it. Greatness for ourselves, greatness for the world.

“Who are you to be anonymous? You! Whose name should be spoken in reverend tones or terrified whispers.” That line gave me goosebumps even though I know what he means in the context of games being good or evil.

This commercial is memorable for a lot of reasons, but two big ones: first, it embraces the strangeness of the video game medium. For all that there is a constant push to make games visually "realistic" and create "playable movies", games are stuffed with surreal ideas - when you stop to consider them outside the context of a game. Second, it demonstrates a certain attitude of intense confidence Sony's Playstation team had following the rocky history of the Playstation 3. Unlike the strange, abstract marketing for PS3 that tried far too hard to be mysterious - which was a sign Sony didn't actually have a clear vision for the product - the PS4 put "memorable experiences" front and center. Even in this surreal piece, a wide variety of authentic video game characters, concepts, play mechanics, and thematic elements are represented. And compared to the PS3, or its direct competitor, the Xbox 1, PS4 was surprisingly unpresumptuous. It wasn't pretending to be a multi media experience or the centerpiece of an entertainment center. It was just a game console. Even its aesthetic design was low, flat, and intentionally stayed out of the way - not drawing attention to itself.
