Remember Sony’s Freaky Fleshtastic PS2 Commercials? We Didn’t Either, But… Damn

As they always say, sex sells. We don't know who the hell they are, but they've clearly got some insight into our ogle-happy ways. Nothing sells a product like a young lady in her undercrackers, after all.

Sony's PR dudes knew this back in the fledgling days of the PlayStation 2. Alas, this was lost in translation when it came time to advertise the console in France. Ad agency TBWA were given the job, and sexy it was not.

Perhaps Mr. Sony's French wasn't so good. He meant to ask for a little female flesh to be involved, and instead he was given women peeling off skin-sweaters, human skin being shed snake-style, plus all manner of hideous abominations from the depths of the devil's ass.

It all started with some perfectly chaste inflatable sex dolls and panty sniffing, and quickly took a turn for the debauched. Check out the gallery above, it's like a bad-to-worse flip book. If you click fast enough.
