    @Toms115: Heh, that's advertising in a nutshell. It rarely has anything to do with the actual products. That's why we have reviews, date-sheets and so on. Facts. Sometimes ads bend the truth, sometimes they discard it all together.  
     
    The value of a cinematic trailer and a gameplay trailer is quite different. The cinematic ones spike the brand, like we have been discussing this game overtly for a while and you will probably remember this. Also this trailer is super successful as it has been talked about outside the games press and that way reached a much wider audience. This works that's why it's done. Everybody talked about the BioShock Infinite trailer and these amazing SW: The Old Republic (1, 2) trailers. They just bring the name to peoples lips and imbed it in their minds. I find it best to separate the trailers and the games as much as possible and enjoy them separately. I mean just edit the title and developer screens out of those and they are amazing short films in their own right. Ok I'm way off-topic now and will shut up.

    Once you put something out there, it is the worlds to enjoy, even if that means destroying it. Any which way you play it, I think this is a good trailer.

    @Obienator REALLY cool! I didn't notice it the first time, but I love how at the start her tiny hand goes up to the dad, then he reaches out and goes way beyond her hand n picks up her whole body.
    Also nice music.
    And it replays itself in a couple spot early on, but aaahhhhhh no big deal.

    Also Ryanwho is a douche

    Yep, it must come as a shock that people thought the trailer was good considering pretty much the entire internet has been talking about it since the second it was posted online. If you want to call it "boring" and "bland", fine. But don't just "Oh, I didn't know anyone likes this LAWL" just to be an idiot. That's like me coming into a thread about Red Dead Redemption and saying "People like this game? Huh...Never would have guessed." "
    Not everyone spends all their time on gaming websites. I only heard of this game once from a facebook status from a guy who always talks about video games. Really the only place you would know about the popularity of this video is from game sites or from friends. How can you condescend to someone who seemingly has more of a life than you?

    Great work, I really liked that you used the Lost music, and that eye at the end totally a reference to Lost. But it would be great if Michael Giacchino would do the music to the game.

    I really enjoyed watching this edited version of the trailer. It was surprising to see that the parts in the original trailer could be melded together so smoothly since I couldn't piece it all together myself.
