Sony - In November 2006, a marketing company employed by Sony created a website entitled 'All I want for Xmas is a PSP', designed to promote the PSP virally. The site contained a blog, which was purportedly written by 'Charlie', a teenager attempting to get his friend 'Jeremy''s parents to buy him a PSP, providing links to t-shirt iron-ons, Christmas cards, and a 'music video' of either Charlie or Jeremy 'rapping'. However, visitors to the website soon discovered that the website was registered to a marketing company, exposing the site on sites such as YouTube and digg, and Sony was forced to admit the site's true origin in a post on the blog, stating that they would from then on 'stick to making cool products' and that they would use the website for 'the facts on the PSP'. The site has since been taken down. In an interview with next-gen.biz, Sony admitted that the idea was 'poorly executed'.
