Sony Switching Ad Firms

5
Current PlayStation advertising firm TBWA/Chiat/Day is no longer a contender in Sony Computer Entertainment America's search for a marketing agency, reports Advertising Age.

TBWA began working with PlayStation brand in 1994 and has been creating ads for it across the past 13 years. Among the company's efforts are the "u r not e" campaign for the original PlayStation, which many gamers still reference more than a decade later, and the more recent white-room commercials for the PlayStation 3.

The new home for the $150 million PlayStation account has yet to be announced, though SCEA is said to have requested more information from at least two of the four companies still under consideration.
