Soul Calibur 5 ad starts cheesy, gets better

Actors look stupid pretending to be game characters

When will the game's industry learn that getting actors to pretend to be game characters in the real world is just a bit lame?

That start of this trailer is almost facepalm material before it redeems itself with plenty of gameplay and some bombastic trailer-y music.

We prefer, however, the artsy stunt involving some clever graffiti work Namco pulled in London last week.

It worked with the Skyrim advert.

Could be worse, they could have had the music from the Final Fantasy advert playing over the top of it.
