If I had to make a guess I'd say that entire gameplay trailer was pre-rendered in the vein of the original Killzone 2 trailer. So it's pre-rendered to specifically look like gameplay.

Ahahah you are not serious right?

It seems like it'll be set-pieces with a few different ways to complete each set-piece. There's no way it'll be free-roaming with some of the fancy stuff you can do, surely.

I have a friend who was a playtester on watch dogs and he said:

"It looks way better now than it did when I played it, I only got to play the first few levels...it's like GTA, but more techy. "

Like I said last page I have a friend who play tested the thing and he said it plays like a futuristic GTA. So set your expectations with that in mind.

The missions in GTA are completely linear as well but you can still walk around and do sandbox "rear end in a top hat simulator" which is where the real fun is.

So talking more to the play tester friend:

-The car crash was NOT scripted

-There are multiple ways to do objectives. (In an interview yesterday ubi said you could have ambushed the guy at the car park instead of causing the car crash and many more ways)

-Your guy gains new abilities as the game goes on

-You can be an rear end in a top hat walking around hacking stuff causing mayhem for poor npc's

I hope they have hundreds and hundreds of different NPC backstories. I would hate it if I come across multiple "pro life tobacco executives" in the same area.

Uncharted 2 is the best writing I have seen in a game in the past couple years. I loved the characters in it. It was way better than the lovely Indiana Jones 4 movie.

The last of us also looks amazing in that regard. I want to play it because I want to see what happens to those characters. It is one of the rare times I want to play a game to find out what happens in the story.

Basically what I am trying to say is Naughty Dog is the best.

Yea I am fine with the delay if it means we will get a much more polished game at the end.
