Petition to Never Use Classic Rock in a Destiny Advert Again
Signed.
After seeing the Japanese add, I cant even laugh at how shitty the American one is.
Who do these adds even appeal to?
EDIT: Lets not make assumptions about musical taste. Any form of popular music would have been inappropriate. Pop, rap, rock... most popular songs.
EDIT 2: Once again, this is not an attack on classic rock or any particular genre. This is about misleading advertising and out of place music in shitty commercials. All the money they spent on it... its trash.
EDIT 3: And actual quality Destiny advert: https://youtu.be/jS1BM9XRgvw
And another decent one: https://youtu.be/clRpcIHpmoY
EDIT: I gotta say, I am amazed how few people get the thread.
The vast majority of the posts on this thread essentially boil down to thinking I am insulting a 70s Rock Band and like Dubstep. As though the entire point of the thread flew over their heads and was completely lost on them. I guess I cant expect less from children.
But I will say this: I was wrong about the advert.
The advert is still an embarassing and misleading schlock epic: money burning on the screen, portraying Destiny as a game of one liners and awesome fist pumping ACTION when in reality, its a very slow moving old school sci fi universe that is highly confusing and has no one liners or bro action AT ALL.
But I thought an advert like this would be completely ineffective. I thought it would be a massive failure around here. But I was wrong, since apparently all it takes is a popular song and some schlock get people excited.
Damn shame that.

They need to make an ad with the riff from 'no quarter'

It doesn't fit. It's just an attempt to get people who typically wouldent be into sci-fi (madden players) to buy the game.

Bump the crap outta this.

1 ReplyEdited by FuzzyKittens: 9/11/2015 4:30:02 AMThey could have used a better song that led Zeppelin song. "Oryx is here guardian he will kill us all and what you will kill will come back." HEY BEY MAMA WAYVJ YOU SAU WATCH YOU GROVE !!!!! You know what I'll find a better song for the trailer. 1. http://youtu.be/-m7e7tCn7Bk 2. http://youtu.be/Eje2r90MkGE

Signed! It's a horrible choice of song. Not a bad song but out of place.
-
I think the songs they used fit the live-action trailers. They wanted us to jump in and become legend. I think the music gave that feeling of just jumping in. Still hoping they use AC/DC's Back in Black.

Poor choice in music for this game agreed but I like the song but its not meant for destiny
-
Disagree

I like the music, but the only reason I'd sign this is because Activision are complete @$$holes who ripped the 8 Spheres out and put a completely irrelevant pop song into the trailers. Yes I know that the reason for pop/rock music is used to attract more people in the audience (it was played like every other commerical on espn) but in by doing so they practically snuffed the light of Marty O'Donnel and Paul McCartney with their E3 stunt back in 13 so screw that. 8 Spheres all the way

Classic music is [i]perfect[/i] it makes the trailer way more fun to watch

2 RepliesWhy haven't they used Welcome to the Jungle? It would make a a lot of sense if they did...

You think that silly Japanese bullshit was a good trailer? Your opinion is invalid. *pumps shotgun while kicking a juke box, that spontaneously plays rock/heavy metal/80's music and then we suddenly become an 80's action movie*
