seriously getting sick of gametrailers blatantly spoiling games

with you.  
 
also have to blame publisher marketing as well. Working as a dev, sometimes the trailers they put out for our game frustrate us (prince of persia FS for example). 
 
an example is if you check mass effect 2 videos overall, there are more than 50 trailers, gameplay, cgi vids on gametrailers.. thats insane.. most of that was the last few weeks before release. 
 
and yeah, gametrailers themselves with their new "feature videos" where they show the first hour of a game, or even a bunch of vids for the ending of a game. At least those are clearly labeled spoiler, but they spoil a whole lot in their reviews as well, which i  have learnt to ignore these days. I did not watch the mass effect 2 video review out of fear.  
 
I remember playing mgs4, that first mission in whatever-the-fuck-stan, i knew everything by heart having watched all the culminating videos for mgs4. i knew exactly what was going to happen and when. 
 
this is why giantbomb is my #1 site since it was conceived, for reviews and game stuff. they dont spoil anything that the devs havent spoilt themselves, and you can enjoy spoiler heavy podcasts once you are done with a game by listening to the clearly labeled spoil-casts. 

I guess it'd be too much to ask for you to just avoid things that piss you off.

Then don't watch the review to begin with, duh.

Yeah, that shit pisses me off.  I just watched their Dante's Inferno Review,

Gamespot's review of Uncharted 2 was pretty hilarious as well.

I saw the Gametrailers Bioshock 2 review and didn't feel like there was any big spoilers given away.  What is it you're exactly talking about?

What's the sentence? I'd love to know how this ONE SENTENCE spoiled every plot point of the game for you.

Well, I kind of agree with the dudes that say don't watch it, but also I'm with you that's is a completely douche move to put major spoilers in a review.  It would also suck ass for someone new to Gametrailers or someone who had never watched one of their reviews to have a highly anticipated game spoiled by them.  I mean, you wouldn't expect major spoilers in a damn review.  I have not seen the review, so I don't know what you're talking about.

 no need to be a jackass about it.

They reveal that your little sister is the daughter of the woman causing all the mayhem in rapture. if thats not spoiling and giving away the motivations for the main villian i dont know what is.

I can see where you're coming from but if it's a regular occurrence, why look at them?

Edit: Also, I hate Video reviews. Would much rather read one.

I had a problem with their Spirit Tracks review and spoilers, but I'm pretty sure that even 2K Marin said spoiler that you are complaining about.

Then don't look at them. Gametrailers is so terrible anyway.

" Yeah, that shit pisses me off.  I just watched their Dante's Inferno Review,

and they showed a cut scene where Dante is the one who stabbed that dude in the face with that cross.

  I mean wtf?  Why the hell did they feel the need to show that?  It adds absolutly nothing to the fucking review, yet probably ruined a part of the story.  I wanted to play that shit once it hit bargain bins too.  "

I already said it, and you felt the need to start calling people names because I'm not waving a pitchfork or whatever the hell you intended to accomplish here. You need to chill out. If you think watching a 9 minute game review and finding out stuff about the game is the same as getting hit by a car for walking on the sidewalk, I don't know that you can be reasoned with. Are you just going to pick a fight with everyone who points out the obvious? At least 4 people have so far, you seem hellbent on raging on just me for whatever reason.

" I guess it'd be too much to ask for you to just avoid things that piss you off. "

should prolly stop going there then

Was the spoiler bit in their story segment? Because when I'm concerned about that sort of thing, I usually try to tune that part out. Turn off the volume, and try to avoid looking directly at what is occurring until the next bit starts. Well, unless it happened to occur outside of that part, in which case something is wrong here. It might be a bit extreme, but spoilers are an inherent risk of the video game review, more especially when there is a segment devoted the story. 
 Does it suck that it was spoiled for you? Yes.  
Were you aware of the GT review format? If so, you probably should have been conscientious of how their reviews go, since they make it relatively easy to skip the story portion of the review. 
Though I will agree that the coverage of spoilers in reviews is a big downer, it seems to be the way things are, and I can't envision it changing anytime soon. 

Here's what I do:  I don't read reviews.
 
The point where I stopped putting so much damn stock into reviews is also the point where I started enjoying myself more.  I've found my method of "well, guess I'll just buy it and find out!"  holds up better than splitting hairs over reviews.
 
(and I'm just as poor as you guys, so don't start with that 'we dont have money to burn' argument)

Their review of Mass Effect 2 spoiled the beginning of the game so quickly I couldn't skip ahead. 
 
That was first and last time I let myself get upset about their video reviews spoiling plot. Now I know to simply not watch their reviews.

How exactly do you know that this one sentence spoils the game if you haven't played it?

 I'm not so much just inclined to say that reviews or previews give away too much of a story,but that they sometimes even spoil important plot points. It's not a matter of not knowing what part of the game that is, and therefore spoilers it is not. If you're giving away plot twists, like a good guy gone rogue three-quarters through a game, and you're showing it in a review; meanwhile people that are just getting the game or are going to get it know that their friend is going to turn on them, you're ruining the narative just by showing. 
 
In the Gamespot GOTY nominees video I think it was, they showed Batman: Arkham Asylum. You want to know what part of the game they showed? 

" So before you get on your politically correct high-horse of "Don't watch videos with spoilers in it!", can you tell me how I was to know they would throw that high-caliber clip of the game into that video, essentially ruining it for me? "

i stopped going there a long time ago. for many reasons

Gameplay videos spoiled MW2 for me -

Seriously. "

to those saying don't watch the videos i would love to see how you would react if someone spoiled a game you were looking forward to then told you its your fault for listening

This happens with movies too.
 
I was talking up the movie 'Moon' on another thread and somebody - with the best of intentions - posted an official trailer.
 
It pretty much spoiled the main plot point. I was taken aback that the studio would give so much away in a promo. Of all movies, the less you know about that one before you see it, the better.
 
If I hadn't illegally downloaded a hi-def version ahead of time, it would have been spoiled for me too. Thank God for piracy.
 
If you haven't seen it, watch it now. It's great.

Well, people have said that in this specific case with Bioshock 2 whatever it was they mentioned in the review is something you find out very early on in the game so I think they can be excused for this one. If they are spoiling games on a regular basis in their reviews though, that is very poor work on their part. 

Yeah this is something that I noticed when watching the review. How could they think that wasn't a spoiler?

Plus, they didnt even talk about Multiplayer.

I've never been much of a stifler for spoilers but this just sounds stupid. Why would you risk having spoilers in a video review?

This is exactly why I stopped watching their reviews.   I'll ocassionally use them for entertainment purposes, or if it's an old game where I don't particularly care about the story, but I stayed very far away from the Uncharted 2 and ME2 reviews.  Don't care what they think if it means ruining the plot.
