YYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!! Awe man im so stoked about this!! Just checked out the gameplay trailer, its VERY wowwy isnt it! Not that I dont like the wow interface, I just kinda hoped it would be simple like the first 2. Im loving those weapon effects for ice, cold etc and the destructable environment, very cool. I can see it being abused online though, you'll get some goon spoiling it for everyone somehow.

I'm looking forward to reading the posts about this a month after it's released. Quotes I'm sure you'll see:

"It was totally over-hyped"

"I thought it wasn't that great"

"that was a tech demo, not a game"

And so the cycle continues...

Sadly probably true.
I hope they don't make it a 3d 3rd person or fps style game.

I haven't, but that's not really the point.

I was here when Doom 3 came out and people were wetting themselves

When the Crysis screenshots and then gameplay videos came out I thought some people were going to have kittens over it.

When Bioshock came out we lost Joe for a week.

How many of those games do people still get excited about? Yeah, that's what I thought.

My point is that it'as pretty much gaurenteed that the game, no matter how good, won't live up to the hype, and so why are people falling for the hype yet again?

The only games that I recall people deciding were as good as the hype indicated were Valve releases, specifically HL2 episodes, TF2 and Portal, though it's hard to say on the last one because as i recall no one knew what to think of portal prior to release. One could make an arguement for GTA4, but I think the jury is still out on that one.

I think there is a column here if someone wanted to write it about how publishers are shooting themselves in the foot by creating expectations they can't possibly meet, and doing it over and over until every single release turns out to be a disappointment.
