I'm having a hard time registering this one, but it's true. GW has a TV commercial.

It is not the first time GW has had a TV ad. They filmed an ad at a store in Maryland, the Yorkridge store, a year or so ago and ran it here on television in a very limited way for a couple different store openings.

Man, I've seen local business with better production values...
I like that the "Get a free miniature" picture shows a Termi Chaplain and a Fire Prism... Anyone near the new store should go in and demand one!

I can't really fault this commercial. It's for the opening of a store. If it was for some nation-wide promotion I would expect some better production value. Hell, just play the opening video from Dawn of War and call it a day.
I give this thread about 5 more minutes before Melissia comes in and complains that there are no SoBs in the Commercial.

As far as local store production, not total suck. Defiantly not a "corporate' commercial.

To my knowledge GW has never had a single TV advert in the UK.

I love the 'real gamers play face to face' thing. Suck it video gamers!!! I think it kind of alienates a large group of people you would want buying your stuff.
