Good for Mass Effect 3 and Alan Wake for showing actual gameplay. You know...the thing that matters.

Rest are just CGI fodder...lame,


1. If you aren't excited by that Transformers trailer, CGI or not, I don't want to know yew.

2. What part of the Bioshock trailer was CGI?

Sorry, Transformers didn't do anything for me. Actually I couldn't stand the linkin park rip off song playing. Where I come from Transformers has screming 80s guitars playing.

And CGI stands for "cut scene" ...in game, prerendered or CGI, whatever... I want to see gameplay. I can cut Bioshock some slack cause I saw its gameplay before and it looks cool.

Metal Gear Rising though, looks freekin amazing...and the PlatnumGames logo doesnèt hurt either.

Where you come from there is an implicit acquiescence to mediocrity.

CGI does not stand for cutscene, it stand for computer generated image, in the context of video games (and in an earlier post of yours in this very thread) a cutscene that is not being rendered in-engine because the engine itself could not support it. Not only was that entire trailer in-engine, but half of the displayed scenes were actually gameplay. There wasn't a shred of CGI to be seen in the whole thing.

I am pleased that MGR is embracing its own absurdity, but that trailer did not convince me of the gameplay's chops. I know from War for Cybertron that Fall of will be good enough, and I've seen enough of Infinite to know that it will play great; I have not been blessed with the same confidence for MGR. It's not like Kamiya is heading the project.
