GTA IV Trailer 2

   Well. Hunh. That's weird.

   I've just watched a GTA trailer and for the first time in, I dunno, thirty years? I kinda feel ...nothing.

   Am I sick? I mean, graphically it looks like it's continued to improve but other than that ...not a blip. Characters seem carefully bland, nuances of gameplay are hinted at but nothing to ooh-ah over.

   Hm. It's got to be just because it's a sort of graphics demo to set visual expectations. There's not a whole lot of dialogue, just lots to show different lighting effects. (time of day, focal depth, neon, reflection )

   Drops in May of next year, so ...yeah. Lots of time for more energy / mood based trailers to come out.
