Aces High needs a new commercial
« on: April 25, 2005, 06:35:49 PM »
How many of you have seen the add for Aces High on TV?

I see it on the Military Channel.

Some of the filmmakers in the community can do a much better job of promoting and portraying the game on TV then that add does.

(why do I even care about this stuff?)

the footage is good its the way the voiceover is done thats kinda..lame.

Its just not very enticing. It doesnt grab ya by the short and curlies and say. "hey, check this out"

I'd haveta agree. I think the folks here can do better.

So why dont ya's.

The solution is obviously to have a contest with Community made commercials.  The best commercial in HiTech's POV wins.


You could say something like, wins a month without having to pay or something.

A month, a year subscription would be more like it. Takes a lot time to make a good film.  :aok

I was going to try to make one... but I would have to get the okay from HT... I just don't want to put all the time and effort into it and not even have it considered.

But if they want me too, I can do it.  All I need is the okay.

Yeah I got to agree that marketing has never been HTC's strong points.

The advert that I saw was so bad it looked completely amateur. Same goes for the arcadish flash running on HTC front page.

The adverts give a completely wrong picture of the game which means they do not serve thier purpose.

Yep, it's so terrible that I consider it non work safe, especially with the ridiculously loud and annoying music.

commercial is terrible.  I have to change the channel when it comes on.  Mil chn. on 1/2 the time my tv is, so i've seen it lots, well the 1st 10seconds before I flip channels that is.

Makes the graphics look terrible, and the voice over...  GEEEZ it's terrible.

Not sure what is worse, that somebody came up with that dialog, and pitched it, or that somebody said "wow, sounds good, go with that"

"How would YOU like to blah blah blah.... How would YOU like to" etc, etc, over and over again.  And the bad part is, it's hard to understand.  Like a used car dealer commercial, w/ lots of fast talk.

Sorry coming down so hard, but that is indeed a bad comercial.  Would be neat to see what a few members of the community could do.  Somebody who reallly loves the game, and it shines through from a player perspective.
