The Saboteur is feeling good, proves it in new trailer photo

Now this, my friends, is how you do a trailer. It's stylish, it's classy, and it features Nazis being thrown off buildings and covering other Nazis in their blood. What more could you need for a successful video? The only thing that could top it is dog sex, but I don't Pandemic is allowed to do that, legally.

This new trailer for Pandemic's The Saboteur sets the tone quite nicely, and sets up main character Sean Devlin as a man with whom you don't want to bugger around, whether you're a member of the master race or not. There's something about an Irish race car driver who likes exploding Germans by sniping sticks of dynamite that just oozes class, don't you think?

Hit the jump for the trailer.

I'll admit this game wasn't really doing it for me when I first heard about it, but this trailer has at least put it on my radar for now.

Is he sliding down that rope with only his hands?

This game BETTER have a rope burn feature, then.

THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is what a trailer should be.

That's a pretty cool trailer. I'll have to see some more before I make a real judgment though.

CGI cut scenes can make any game look great. I'll care when I can see gameplay footage.

Scratch that, I used that iPhone app Shazam to find it.

My hype-meter is already to high to be boosted.
Too many games, not enough money.

PS: Saboteut can be defined in seven words: "Nazis have fucked with the wrong irishman."

I like that trailer.. That is a nice trailer.. lol. Although.. One minor historical o.0. There were no choppers in WWII. No good ones anyway. Planes were still being worked on. So what was that last bit?

It's classy and the music and Nazi killing is nice. But man, those guns sound wimpy, they lack a lot of oomph, and that just irks me for some reason. As long as it doesn't become anything like Velvet Assassin, I'll be good.

Wait, did they censor the naughty bits of the show girls? I though I saw some blurring effects.

I heard the Nazis were quite fond of blimps....

I was thinking that too, but if you look closely at the end, it looks like it might be a blimp

Classy. I'm really digging the colour palette/effects. I hope that carries over to the game.

I think they censored the ta-ta's so they wouldn't have to age-gate the trailer. Then again, who knows.

@Chrisdd21
Everyone else is right. That's a blimp/zeppelin/dirigible.

OMG They censored the signs but let them smoke cigarettes?

SMOKING CIGARETTES ISN'T COOL!

I just can't get excited about Saboteur.
Pandemic took months to barely fix the console version of Mercs 2
Pandemic NEVER fixed the PC version of Mercs 2, most people can't play it
It turned out company resources were being diverted to make that horrible LOTR game, Lord of the Rings: Conquest
Pandemic is a complete slave to EA's unrealistic schedualing now and I have to assume saboteur will ship somehow broken or incomplete

The original is 'Feeling Good' by Muse, I believe. This one? Not so sure...
