Explaining his choice, Bose said, "For me that one was special because nine years ago, when I first saw that film, my jaw dropped wide open and remained open, for a long long time. 'How could anyone make a film like that?', I asked myself. Created by TBWA London and by the legendary Trevor Beattie, it was an absolutely iconic 60-second film at the time. The brief given to the agency was to show people competing against each other to be the very best and showing the capacity of the new Playstation 2 to introduce players to a worldwide competitive community. What also makes the film remain etched in my memory, is the very childlike Shirley Temple soundtrack called ‘De Gospel Train’ recorded in (would you believe?) 1936. To put a soundtrack like that on such a high stakes film certainly took some guts."
