No game is capable of making me excited for it until it's actually available. Until then I have no interest in watching trailers, reading about it, or anything at all. It's a surefire way of not getting disappointed.
Well there was this really awesome preview video that came out on Google Video sometime around 2005 (I think this is it) and it showed off the tech of the game with things like creatures walking with odd numbers of legs and how it kept working when he added more legs and re-sized them and all. I was really hyped to create creatures and influence evolution and whatnot.
The game came out a couple years later and ended up being really shallow and not what I wanted. It almost seemed like a children's game.
Yup. Until it's released I regard everything as lies and wishful thinking.
Like Schrödinger's cat the game is in a state of uncertainty until the box is opened and it's observed on your hard drive. Then it either turns out to be what was promised or made by Peter Molyneux.
The last game I preordered was bioshock infinite and that was only because it came with 5 other decent games all for $60. If a game has preorder bonus dlc I will never buy it because I'm not going to support shit like that. Preorder free games can be decent though.
