Advertising is getting bigger and more diverse, especially now with Sony teaming up with Spike TV to create a reality show all towards finding a real-life Nathan Drake

With Uncharted 3 coming up in November, Sony have launched a show in the vain of Takeshi’s Castle, Total Wipeout and Ninja Warrior which is ultimately meant to advertise their new game…but how can you not love people jumping over things, falling off of things and being hit by things designed to push them into things? They are after those that “love adventure and video game enthusiasts, puzzle solvers and risk takers.”

If you are over 21, can travel in the week of October 3rd, have a driver’s liscense and are willing to fill in a lot of forms, go for it! We all need a good laugh

In light of the upcoming games, both the MMO and the DS game, AND the article posted yesterday. I decided to poke fun at everything I found weird and annoying in Final Fantasy. Keep in mind this is all in good fun and I actually really like the Final Fantasy series.

1. Which way is Bafsk?
I never seem to know where the next town is, especially in the early games. It seems I always end up going in the opposite direction until I meet an enemy that’s at least 20 levels above me and die. Oh yeah, did I mention I forgot to save? *grumble*

2. It costs how much!?
Why does every town seem to want to charge me more to sleep in a bed than the last town I visited? Did my leveling increase my overall mass size? Am I now a liability to the hotel because I’m so beefed up? What’s going on here, seriously.
