I love quirky foreign commercials as much as the next guy, but this one is semi-disturbing. Most commercials try to make you believe that using the advertised product will make you famous or rich or attractive or all of the above. Bucking that feel-good product association, Sony goes against the grain and shows a PSP owner going through an involuntary and violent metamorphisis into F1 racing legend Fernando Alonso. Creepy. And what's with the PS2 logo at the end?
PSP ads continue to entertain and perplex

This is a translation for that ad:
There is only one way to turn yourself into Fernando Alonso. F1 Grand Prix, only for PSP.
As some of you may already have seen, Fernando Alonso is a Spanish F1 racer. I think the PS2 logo is used as, I don't know, brand marketing.
Cool ad, by the way.
