Violent Playstation 3 Ad Banned

A Sony TV ad featuring a gun and knife-toting character has been banned for condoning or glamorising violence.

The commercial, featured on Yahoo and BT websites for the Playstation 3 console, features steely-eyed 'Kovac' holding a knife and a gun.

On-screen text read: "You on my side? listen up I've killed for less. The music plays Puccini in my head."
