Yes. for a 2 hour show. it was too much for some people, it seems. It's especially funny because Bloodborne gameplay was present on the showfloor so we still got to see that anyway.

I still don't understand how anyone is being deceived? It is obvious that it's a trailer, or to translate it more generically, it is an advertisement for the game. It informs the general public of the upcoming game. Of course it cannot be a complete representation of a game perhaps a year from completion.
People got upset about Dead Island trailer. I thought it was awesome. But I was reasonable enough to know that the entire game will not be slo-mo in reverse. The CGI trailer let me know that there is a game, excited me about it, and then in the following 6 months there were plenty of other trailers and videos, interviews and developer commentaries, articles and photos, which painted the picture of an actual game.
We need more quality CGI trailers, this year I was very pleased with Bloodborne, Tomb Raider, Dead Island 2, and many more. Excellent trailers....

nah, CGI trailers don't do anything for me personally, but as long as people understand that they are nothing like the game it's fine imo

what bothered me was when a few years back everybody was swooning over the 3 Star Wars: The Old Republic CGI trailers

What I personally find more annoying are staged gameplay demos.
I believe the only actual game that we saw during all 3 conferences that was live gameplay was LittleBigPlanet 3.
There's something disingenuous about showing pre-recorded gameplay because you see exactly what they want you to see.
I guess we all have our preferences.

everything CGI should be banned a long time ago.

At least it is better than live action trailers, am I right?

CGI is fine...what i dont like is fake gameplay demos....

Uncharted 2, GOW3, Alan Wake gameplay demos is how it should be done!

cgi is fine, as long as they have a 'not actual gameplay' message. Most people can tell anyway.
What should be banned is gameplay which is supposed to be for consoles but is actually running on PC like batman.

Yes.

We should have live action trailers instead.
