Trailer Trash #4

Your weekly dose of awful game videos

Words: GamesRadar US

Another week, another heaping pile of terrible videogame trailers. Somehow, our inboxes never stop filling up with this crap. Actually, we’ve padded out this week’s Trailer Trash with a generous helping of our own custom stuff – jump ahead to page 3 for some of that action. Without further ado, the trash.

Army of Two: The 40th Day – Trailer

This trailer tells you right off the bat that, “The following is all in-game footage.” So, it looks like core elements of gameplay will be slow panning, glitchy “bad reception” effects and reading shit off of papers that fly by. Can’t wait!

 

Star Trek D-A-C – Trailer

A shameless attempt to connect the hype and energy of the film with a derivative top-down shooter. Didn’t you learn anything from Battlestar: Galactica’s arcade suckfest?

 

Velvet Assassin – Kill reel

This “kill reel” is a lot like those movie trailers where by the end you feel like you’ve already seen the whole movie.

wow, i might be first...

that 'every game trailer' thing really makes me hate today's gaming industry. I don't know why (rewatches it) oh yeah, everything.

I'm waiting for Pirates vs. Ninjas vs. Zombies vs Spartans Tetherball!

Wait, so you're dissing Scribblenauts just because you don't believe in the concept? Oh ye of little faith. The developers have effectively placed every noun in the english language inside this game, minus ones that are trademarked or offensive. Do some research (like a real game site would do), and learn.

the first item i found in fable was a condom, that I dug out of the ground. Because my dog... could smell the condom?

lol scribblenauts would be awesome if it actually put everything you wrote in the screen to the game and i mean everything like you guys were saying
GoldenMe  - 6 months 29 days ago 
@Mushroomer- Believe in GR.

At least they're not IGN.

And besides, Scribblenauts looks "awfully" like Drawn to Life....Well, you do the math.

Wow, Army of Two looked pretty bad.
JohnnyMaverik  - 6 months 29 days ago 
U can get Condoms in Fable O.o I need to give that game a second chance...

I wonder what happens if you write "MILF" in Scribblenauts? Does Cooking Mama appear?
iluvmyDS  - 6 months 29 days ago 
Why the hell did the Army Of Two guy throw a woman like over 9000 feet to the ground?
jonbooey  - 6 months 29 days ago 
That woman didn't have her ticket.

Hi-yo!
iKOemos  - 6 months 29 days ago 
I'll probably buy The 40th Day or at least rent it. I quite enjoyed the first one for its awesome co-op.
DampedVirus  - 6 months 29 days ago 
I will still most likely enjoy Velvet Assassin. And Army of Two really has gone to shit. sigh. That game looked so promising two years ago when you were going to be able to use tampons as bullet-wound plugs and there was, I don't know, going to be some satirical comedy in the game, not the constant bickering of two overly buff adrenaline junkies. Lastly, the trailer for Demigod did that game no justice.
DampedVirus  - 6 months 29 days ago 
Oh and, we need more awkward silence videos. That was amazing.

@ mushroomer:

For the record, it wasn't so much of a dis against your game ("It actually looks kinda fun...") as a lament that we won't be able to write MILF to make Cooking Mama appear. The concept is totally solid, but Google Image Searching phrases of questionable origin is practically a national pastime. Translate that into a game like Scribblenauts for epic win: imagine being able to write BONER and then like 20 boners fall out of the sky to crush your enemy, or make a bridge for you to cross or something.

PS: we are not trying to be IGN.

I Seriously thought Velvet assassin was Saboteur..but wait..huh? Are they? One game you play a s a chick, the other speed racer?

Glass Joe, won in the character reveals for punch out....

Recaptcha: Baltazar scouted
Mushroomer  - 6 months 28 days ago 
GoldenMe, they were actually both made by the same people, so that's understandable. And I'm just saying, it doesn't deserve a spot in "worst trailers", just because they haven't had a hands-on chance to play the game.
