Newsflash: Superman game might not suck
We saw a new trailer for Superman Returns this morning and were stricken with strange thoughts. We were thinking, "Hey, that doesn't look that bad. Looks pretty fun, actually. It's a Superman game that might not suck. And it's made by EA. Wha?" We know, it was a very strange thought process, and one that is not likely to repeat itself. The most compelling thing about the trailer might actually be the music. Much like the recent Gears of Warteaser, the music complemented the action very well.
Still, there are other Superman trailers that don't look so hot. General gameplay trailers, for example, leave a lot to be desired. So, as a public service, we've embedded two videos after the break. The first is the slickly produced trailer, and the second is straight gameplay. Both of them were released this month, so these are from the same build.
Super slick. Makes the game look great.
This is just captured gameplay. No soundtrack, no editing.
We'll save final judgment for the actual release of the game, but this serves to highlight how important a good trailer can be. Just watching the gameplay isn't nearly as exciting. Having watched both of these, which one actually makes you want the game (if at all)?
