This ad in Famitsu for the Japanese version of “God of War: Chains of Olympus” for the PSP really tickled me:

Salaryman of War

I’m not sure what about this ad I like better: the flame-rimmed salaryman going batshit with the Blades of Chaos or the ad copy proclaiming this game a remedy for today’s stressful Japanese workplace.
