I'm sure similar disclaimers worked out well for Alien: Colonial Marines.

Fine letters are almost the exact definition of misleading, because you show one thing with the intent of other and make very little effort to prevent the confusion.

As any other game could.Its good to be skeptical, but too much of it will just make you paranoid.

Yes any other game could, but here we are talking about the ones that are doing it.

Even the fine letters disagree with the PR talk.

"Images not final" is not the same thing as "Not real images". "Footage not final" is not the same thing as "You shouldn't assume that it's actual game footage". The first one implies that they're still working on it for the console and it can still changes before the release. The second one implies that it could be anything from a BS footage made at the last minute to a fun unofficial project made by some employees at home, running on anything from a toaster to a NASA computer. So, the first one implies that the project currently looks like that but could still evolve a bit in the last few months before release, the second one implies "SURPRISE !!". Not the same thing.

I agree... and the best part is that most is assuming that this is because they are using WiiU footage and that it shall be better than that (on dock it probably will), but that could also be a cover for the HH run looking worse. And it's tottally strange people saying like it is normal to not have a single game that at least have a demo or build that could properly showcase the hw.

A disclaimer would have been nice, Nintendo.

Great, fine letters on the last second... that is totally to inform and not to cover their ass.

I mean this was obvious to me. They all looked Wii U level of graphics, so I certainly hope the system is capable of more.

Or in HH mode it could look worse but they will let you dream until then.
