PSP Connect using PGR3 Screenshot

The headline says it all.

Until they fix it, you can see that clearly the main image used on Sony?s PSP Connect site to promote the Gran Turismo HD Preview was stolen borrowed from the Xbox 360 title Project Gotham Racing 3. You can find the original PGR3 shot they used over from Bizarre Creations here.

I grabbed a screen shot of the original web page and posted it on Flickr to capture the moment.

hehe, when a game coming out in 2007 uses a screenshot from a 360 game released in 2005... it sure looks odd.  It gets even worse when it is stolen from an archrival!

nice.

Microsoft, you can call the troops home now. Apparently Sony isnt even trying anymore

Okay, that's it.

It's official.

Sony has at least a handful of "counter-operatives" employed at their highest levels. Double agents, if you will. No other possible explanation.

Pardon the crude photoshop but I thought I would help Sony out on an idea for their next marketing campaign.

If they are gonna use pictures of PGR3 to sell Grand Turismo, they might as well use Gears of War to sell Resistance.
