So, for now I'm going to set aside any comments regarding the possible irony of the words that appear on the screen in the new Rise of Nightmares trailer. I've only played the game twice at conventions, and each time I was probably not playing a final build so I'll just leave that one for you to comment on.

Aside from that, I have no idea how I should react to everything else. Should I be laughing at the trailer? Because that's most certainly what I was doing. Or was I really laughing with the people in the trailer? Was I playing along and not even knowing it? Has Sega and Microsoft joined together in an effort to bamboozle me? Make hay of my very emotions?

I'm going to go lay in bed for awhile to work this all through. In the meantime, have a look for yourself below. Maybe it's a good thing our reviewer has been charged with reviewing the game drunk.  I think it might be the only way.

    Good god. I may have to go with some high gravity 40s for this one. Since it's also way too fucking hot up here, I may be playing this mostly naked. I'll see if I can get my girlfriend to splatter me with fake blood whenever I kill anything; it will be like a GWAR concert.

    After watching the Mega64 trailer, I want this game. This trailer was a bit weird. It was kinda funny, but at the same time you think "This is just another sucky Kinect game, and they are just trying to fool me".

    its a meh for me. At least there's something that's more hardcore on Kinect.

    It looks completely fucking stupid in my opinion. The trailer does nothing for the game. At all.

    I think what we're seeing is a self-aware gorefest of cheap thrills. Take that however you like.

    This reminds me of House of the Dead: Overkill for some reason...

    In the entire trailer only 10% was actual game play the rest was just extreme overacting.

    I think it was meant to be awful. At least I hope so.

    I'm hoping face expressions somehow register to give you damage boosts.

    Just a crappy overacted trailer with a bad premise.

    is it safe to say this is the best trailer of the year? (maybe just behind the saints row 3 and skyrim trailers)
    sad thing is...this isn't nearly as misleading as the dragon age origins trailers
