The Top Ten Gadget Ads of 2007

Wired has a compilation of the best gadget ads of 2007, and it’s not just a list of actual commercials on TV. Some of them are more indirect, and I’m saying that because “subtle” isn’t a suitable word to describe them. The Xbox 360 in Transformers makes it to number 10.

How much does Michael Bay love the gadget community? Enough to make an Xbox 360 transform and attack someone — that’s how much. Transformers not only featured traditional product placement in the way of clearly branded Panasonic memory cards, Nokia phones and HP laptops, but it also took things a step further by turning the character “Frenzy” into a GPX Boombox. We’ve got our fingers crossed for a transformed Zune/iPod brawl in the sequel.
