Adweek Media has recently posted a “Best of 2000’s” list and within the nominees for best commercial was the Halo 3 “Believe” ad. It’s an amazing ad in terms of how much work and detail went into it, but it just was not as memorable as say the Gears of War “Mad World” spot.
I still remember people (some non-gamers) calling Gears of War, the “Mad World” game well after the game released. I remember playing on Xbox Live and having enemies and allies sing the song in the death room. Isn’t that what the “best commercial” should be? Something that stuck in people’s (customer’s) heads well after the commercial was seen. Even re-watching the Mad World commercial now gives me the urge to fire-up Gears of War again. Regardless, the Halo 3 ad was beat out by “Grrr”, a Honda commercial. Below you will find the Halo ad, the winning Honda ad and the Gears of War Mad World ad, my personal Commercial of the Decade winner.

Which one do you think is the best? Is there another video game commercial you think is the commercial of the decade?
