It goes without saying that you shouldn't be harming animals in any regard, but when it comes to promoting a game, it's highly unlikely even with God Of War's love of all things Ancient Greek-related that fans are going to get on board with slaughtering a live goat.

Sadly Sony went ahead with it anyway, drawing hatred from all sides - especially as the PS3 was already putting people off with its ridiculous price point - later admitting the whole thing was "in poor taste".
