Halo 3, PS2 get nods from AdWeek for best commercials of the decade

The average American viewed over 9 million advertising messages over the past decade — logically, a few would stick out in your mind as being better than the rest. Advertising trade publication Adweek recently voted on the best piece of video marketing to be released this decade. Two video game ads you might remember made the final nominees: “Diorama,” for Halo 3, and “Mountain,” for the PlayStation 2.

Sadly, both of these ads lost to Honda’s “Grrr” ad — if only Sony’s “Horrifying, Reverse-Weeping Baby” spot had made it into the list of nominees, the company could have brought home the gold.
