A new MGS 4 Trailer just went live and it actually made me less excited about the game. The trailer makes it look like some generic summer blockbuster. They even have that same announcer guy. Who ever made this trailer really dropped the ball imo. I realize I am setting ym self up for a disappointment with my hype for this game but I don't care.
I was quite fond of it as well. It's like the series, in its final hour, is admitting to what it's always been: An awesome, interactive summer blockbuster.

I write for Destructoid, primarily reviews and recurring columns. I'm probably best known for RetRose Tinted, a series which I began in the Community Blogs and ran for six months before joining the site staff and taking it to the front page. I also contribute to An RPG Draws Near and the recently minted Sexy Time! column as well as serve up a weekly collection of the best deals on games (and completely gratuitous photos of women) in Discountoid.
I'm fond of all types of gaming, either on a screen or a tabletop. In terms of video games, my interests vary wildly from platformers (2D preferred) to RPGs and the occasional FPS. The greatest game of all time is Mega Man 2 and any suggestion otherwise will be met with swift vengeance.
The mere inclusion of Rodney Dangerfield can vastly improve anything. Films, music, toasters, anything. In particular, the force of Rodney Dangerfield could elevate video games to the level in which they are accepted by the mainstream as a true art form, bringing together people of all races, creeds and tax brackets in peace and harmony.
