[QUOTE=ThatSwordGuy;40763380]It's a shame, because IdolNinja sounded impressed with the unfinished build he played so these commercials are doing zero justice for it[/QUOTE]
The issue is that SRTT had all of its best story moments spoiled by the trailers, and they are making a conscious effort not to do that for SR4. I think they are probably going too extreme with the secrecy and need to find a happy middle ground instead of just releasing half-assed gameplay ones that dont' show anything new.
Also, if I hadn't already played it, I would also think the game was complete shit from those trailers; especially that last hail to the chief one.
[QUOTE=dgg;40763972]Uh, in what way is the mollusk launcher comparable to the dubstep gun? In any possible way?
Oh, so because they took an idea further it's shit? Like, are FPS games shit because shooting was done in a different game first?
Also why does it have to be innovative to be good? What do you even put in innovative in this case?[/QUOTE]
If I want similar things I could play the previous game
To be honest, the only reason I see to play this game is the story

Well, you know, that's pretty much what video games are all about. Along with all other forms of entertainment.

But they aren't similar so what are you talking about to begin with?
The mollusk launcher is nothing like the dubstep gun at all in any way shape or form.
We get more superpowers in SR4, how is that the same thing? We also only got them for a very limited time, and only if you actually bought the DLC. What's wrong with taking ideas they came up with from a DLC and implementing it into a full game?
"boo fucking hoo, they're reusing steelport"
That 30 second trailer reminded me of the Cherished Memories videos they did (that weren't that great either).

Hell, the second one was just the introduction video to Super Ethical Reality Climax.
Though I'm wondering why some parts of these trailers have this weird blue tint over them. It was in one of the bigger trailers too when the Boss was waving to a bunch of people near a limousine.

It makes people do stuff without octopus hats, enough similarity for me
I didn't say it's wrong but I think there could be more to it.
[QUOTE=artDecor;40764275]"boo fucking hoo, they're reusing steelport"[/QUOTE]
Steelport was boring as hell, no fun places to be at, boring pedestrians, no large tower with glass windows that you can throw people out of.

Except for the folding bridges, I liked those. The car handling was much better too.

It may not have been a tower, but the building where Killbane and Valderamma are broadcasting from had open windows that I threw many a goon out

By that logic every gun is the same because they all "make people do stuff" (that stuff being dying) when you shoot them. The octopus launcher attaches to the person you shoot at which causes them to start attack everyone else except you and then if you want, you can blow them up. The dubstep gun makes everyone in the vicinity of the hit start dance, it's completely different.

I'm starting to think you just don't [i]want[/i] to like it at any costs.
On a different note, last night I had a dream that I got to play a beta of the game and woke up soon afterwards :(
But the moment I was playing it, it kicked ass.

I think you need to sit down, take a deep breath and listen to yourself.
That is in no way similar to the dubstep gun at all.
I get it that you obviously didn't like SR3 and all and that you dislike that SR4 is going to expand upon SR3 in the same manner that SR2 expanded upon SR1, just that you liked the direction they took with SR2.
But you seriously can't go out of your way to say false things about a game just to confirm and build on your own hatred of the game. You're practically making up lies in order to make yourself dislike it more.
What the hell is so wrong with the Boss becoming president? He's been proven to be a more-than-capable leader, and has NINE gangs on his death toll.
Combine that with paying off/murdering whoever got in his way, all he'd have to do is wait for his 35th birthday.
[QUOTE=milkandcooki;40762006]i don't get why you're bothered
that video was absolutely awful. jesus christ, did you even look at the bit where he picks up the enemy? animation quality was unacceptably horrible.[/QUOTE]
Kinda late, but this seems like nitpicking. Having no animation for something that happens in under a second really isn't a big deal.

benjamin king just won't be the same considering his voice actor died
the people who design the art for the game should design/make everything
All the art for SRTT and now for 4 is fucking amazing.

I mean seriously the art guys are fucking geniuses. I'd buy the Commander in Chief edition AND the regular just to put in a fucking glass case. God damn.
The art guys are probably classy mother fuckers.

shut up SR1 protagonist no one likes you
[QUOTE=Judas;40769888]shut up SR1 protagonist no one likes you[/QUOTE]they apparently used him for the fucking cover
I figured it was just default white male from SRTT with his hair gelled up
[QUOTE=artDecor;40769928]they apparently used him for the fucking cover[/QUOTE]
It looks nothing like him. And the one in the picture you posted just looks like some generic white dude, he could be anyone.

in the pax thingy, they had an animation for it, they probably just turned the ai off for the video or something
that cover art made me cry and jizz at the same time

The replacement is certainly no Michael Clarke Duncan, but I thought he sounded pretty good and quickly got used to the change. It's certainly a better match than Nu-Shaundi was to real Shaundi in SRTT, that's for sure.

Once you buy the "every car has nitro" upgrade the bridges become the best thing ever
Whoa, Michael Clarke Duncan voiced a Saint?
thanks for reminding me of his death :(

Technically he was a King, but either way, MCD was a great voice actor

Are you allowed to disclose anything about Shaundi? Anything about the voice actor?
[QUOTE=redBadger;40770785]Are you allowed to disclose anything about Shaundi? Anything about the voice actor?[/QUOTE]
It's public knowledge that Danielle Nicolet is reprising the role from SRTT. I can't say anything more than that.
