The PSP 'Step Your Game Up' Ad Will Rile Steve Jobs

Playstation is taking a shot at Apple with their latest commercial. The 'Step Your Game Up' ad features child actor and all around badass Bobbe J. Thompson educating a clueless iPhone owner about 'big boy games.'

Playstation is known for their tongue-in-cheek commercials, but I could definitely see this one riling Steve Jobs. The 'Step Your Game Up' ad says that the iPhone isn't capable of playing big boy games like the PSP is. Check out the featured video and decide for yourself.
