Mysterious Sony Video Emerges

“Shhh…I’ve got a little something special for you” tweets Kevin Butler as he posts the link to the video below. Entitled ‘Long Live Play’, it shows two soldiers parachuting into a forest and then stopping by a tavern, hosted by a buxom lady with a penchant for sparkly things stolen from LittleBigPlanet.

Someone in the comments box on YouTube has suggested this is a trailer for Twisted Metal as Sweet Tooth’s Ice cream van is visible at the 23 second mark, but that doesn’t explain the military theme, the rack of guns  (allegedly from Final Fantasy and Ratchet & Clank) or the MK II from Metal Gear Solid that whizzes off screen.

Long Live Play is the name of a campaign started at the end of last month by Sony America, so the video could refer to that rather than a specific game. It’s certainly weird enough to be a Sony advert.

  1. There is something moving in the date screen at the end..

  2. Great advert, a fantastic combination of bit and pieces from all over.

  3. Did anyone notice the glowing eyes in the background of the woods? Hellghast maybe?

  4. at 26 seconds near the dogs whats that moving of is it the little robot thing from metal gear?

    • DOH I’ll read the article fully next time .

      MK II from Metal Gear Solid that whizzes off screen

  5. By the looks of it, I think this is a new promotion for PlayStation Home. Could be wrong.

  6. Wow that advert was awesome. There seems to be loads of Sony franchises except FF13’s Lightening sword.

    Whatever it is, it looks awesome, I think it may be Cloud Gaming or something new in Home.

  7. Colour me curious. I wonder what it is. Those guns are not from FF btw. ;) I think i saw Lady’s rocketlauncher from DMC 3 though. Guess i will wait and find out in June then. ;P

    • Looks like a mash up – I see what looks like Lightnings sword, a weapon from Resistance, one from Ratchet and Clank among a few other more generic but probably from game weapons.
      Also, is that meant to be a materia in the ash try thing?

  8. For the first few seconds it looked like Band of Brothers.

  9. Very cool, so many neat details!
    I’m guessing it’s just advertising for the Playstation Brand, and not for any specific game or Home.

  10. Could be putting all the playstation franchises into home?

    Or due to the presence of the PS store.. Putting all their best loved games on the store?
