Oh damn. Never tried for it, but then I do and I fail. But good chance to catch the beginning part since I didn't start watching this video till 30 minutes after.

What the hell does it mean to keep a site "honest"? I thought this wasn't going to be a hard sell.

No, non-subscribers don't get it ever. If a non-subscriber tries to watch this, it says "only available for paid members"

And if you decide to "buy 'em a drink" you can watch absolutely every "premium" thing released to that point, and all the new stuff for a whole month. It's never never, just later.

Woh. A 1.5 GB download. Here goes....
 
EDIT: Once again, the Tested Team had me laughing up a storm. I originally subscribed because of Giant Bomb, but now I'm also a huge fan of Tested. The way I see it, I just doubled the value of my subscription.

I appreciate the fact that in the video they say cheers for the support with Stella Artois, because they are in-turn supporting me and my employer. :) Synergy!

Yeah, I just think us non-subscribers get mad at this not for the fact that they are being "sellouts" or some shit like that but because we do not have the oportunity to buy the subscription... I barely have money to pay for my basic bills... I understand that we are not suposed to see this but this just makes me sad... I come from work expecting some giant bomb shennanigans and all I get is a message telling me that  this video is available to paid members only... :(

I don't see GB going overboard with Sub only content. Maybe some special features here or there, but I'm sure WM realized most of their viewers aren't subs and won't do something to lose that userbase.

To be quite honest, the fact that they can just label a video as SUBSCRIBER ONLY scares the shit out of me.  
 
So, do us regular guys get this later?  Or no?

That really scares me, i really hope GB doesn't start going down the course of subscribe to watch. hopefully only for some things but if it spreads to too many vids then it will go downhill.

As soon as this video started, I felt that my 50 bucks was not just worth it, but a bargain. Not kidding. 
 
For the whiners: this is additional content. This is not something they were going to do before they thought to themselves "how do we give people their money's worth? We need something extra." And they came through. 
 
Just to show that I'm not completely against you: what you may want to complain about is that this sort of additional content may subtract from the time they have to provide the normal content we've come to expect. Quick Looks (and even Reviews) have certainly dropped off as of lately. 
 
Here's hoping that only had to do with E3 and the Big Live Live Show... Live, and they will get back on the pony right-quick.

Hmm. I don't think the "HD" download is in HD? Are we not able to do that with these or is that a mistake?
