how can it be racist when you can clearly see that they are fighting or contrasting. people never got a chance to see the complete ad. there are actually 3 pictures: http://www.joystiq.com/2006/07/04/ad-critic-sonys-racially-charged-psp-ad/
when you only see one picture, you automactically think it's racist because the white chick is dominating the black chick. the other image shows the black chick dominating the white chick at the end.
