    Guys a CGI trailer may easily cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. As much as I'd love to have one, I'd rather take a cool in-game release video like they did for beta and save that money for actual game development :)

    I wonder if they could just take the original animation, and replace all the models...

    Probably not.

    That trailer seems a little empty without any music. :p

    Companies like EA love people who think like that.

    Yeah, nothing helps a discussion like ad hominem "arguments" and generalizations and such. Why these snarky remarks all the time?

    I prefer the term cynicism.

    The image is to show that sometimes you can want something and don't actually need it:p. What i meant is i don't need a trailer but i want one, if it's possible I'll be happy, if not thats ok too.

    What I need is a good game, what I want is a trailer thats what that image meant. Pretty much the opposite of what EA delivers.;)

    I think we can have a trailer without it costing too much: A trailer comprised of in game footage (with all the nice new bells and whistles) would be great (some of the tourney promotional videos look awesome) complete with JPL voice over and a bit of a story + the epic sound track.

    I'm pretty sure Uber will do something along those lines (they have for each phase of development thus far) :)

    Would be iconic if the trailers was like TA but start of with the comander then zooms out in to space ending with planet smash with jpl telling PA lore.
