then don't buy the game... All that matters to me is the quality of the end product...

(damn I have marketed unacceptably a lot for the past decade lol)

whats your point exactly? that companies should say there game is one thing, then give out another? and that it doesnt matter, as long as what ever game is out, even if its very different than they tried  to make it seem it is, is decent? 

my point is i don't over analyze trailers since they are not supposed to be an accurate representation of the product but a marketing tool to make it as appealing as possible.... If I want info on a game I watch gameplay videos, vidocs etc... Trailers are there just to boost the hype train not to inform you on content... Actually I hate trailers that inform you on content they suck from any marketing stand point... It's good for car dealership, laundry detergent and basic stuff like that...

when I see gears of war trailer with R.E.M. Music brilliant CGI I don't give a damn if it's not exactly what we are getting in game.. But god it was a brilliant ad...

now when I saw the announcement trailer on halo with the desert video I got super hyped and don't expect halo to be a trek in the desert simulation but it was brilliant marketing... And lets not forget that it is suppose to be an announcement for the entire new saga not just halo 5.... So yeah no IGN is wrong then again to each their own specialty they have no clue about marketing And advertising actually most people don't even they believe it's easy..
