So what if I dont know a thing about it. But looking at that ad, it couldve been done alot better.

whether or not it is offensive (it shouldnt be) is a matter of personal opinion, not a generally accepted rule. how many people do you think have heard of this, evaluated it, and decided never to buy a PSP because of it? in the grand scheme of things, very few. on the flipside, how many people are now aware that PSP is coming out in a new colour? many more. although I don't believe in this phrase entirely, it was made for a reason:

"there is no such thing as bad publicity"
