Someone’s finally done it. Guitar Hero for the DS has finally made a commercial more awkward than the Westwood College gaming commercial. It’s like some kind of cable-access version of a bad Bud Light Presents: Real Men of Genius rip off.
I mean, this isn’t even good-bad. It’s hella bad:
And here’s the Westwood College one for comparison’s sake:
And holy crap: Is the kid on the left in the Westwood commercial the same one from the Guitar Hero commercial?

LOL I saw this video on Kotaku earlier today. Yeah, it’s pretty much the worst thing ever. And I thought that I couldn’t be any *less* interested in GH for the DS.
Sweet buttery Jesus, did they have to explain EVERY detail of the game? And that “backup vocals” dude needs to be thoroughly booted in the nads and shot.
Makes me wonder went Westwood has against Massachusetts, or vice versa. Some kind of accreditation issue?
The Guitar Hero thing sounds like they took a miscue from those beer ads, the “Budwieser salutes you, Mr Annoying In Some Funny Way Guy!” The game itself looks reasonably clever for fans of the GH game I guess…
I want… to KILL myself.
Well, you may be making fun of it, but, seeing from stumbleupon, this commercial has been all over the internet.
The commercial may be incredibly stupid, but the fact is, it got posted everywhere, which is exactly what marketing intended to do.
Seriously, why is the advert a damn tutorial?
