Default Turok vs. Crysis

If you want a good laugh, check this out. Turok's E3 trailer from weeks ago, and Crysis' trailer than was released yesterday.

Turok: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/22061.html
Crysis: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/23077.html

In other news, Turok's trailer got almost a quarter of a million downloads on the XBL marketplace, which is exceptional compared to other games.

I dont think its a matter of one trailer trying to copy the other, but rather both were directed to immitate popular hollywood action trailer archetypes, which are themselves severely overused.

"In a world..."
"In a time..."
"It was suppose to be..."



"BUT SOMETHING WENT WRONG!!!"

It's funny, our marketing was apparently trying to show how cliche the whole thing was, using extremeties, but then Crysis came along and proved that people are still serious about using it.

Why was the original Playstation logo at the end of the Turok trailer?

yea, both companies used a pretty lame intro to their trailers.... i found it amusing. hehe


whats really amazing though is that both these games are being released around the same time... Crysis makes turok look years old...
