  I'm super excited for this game... like really excited, but this trailer was pretty boring.

    Sounds like I should "media blackout" this game as well, to keep expectations down.

      I've already been on blackout for about a year now. I know almost nothing about this game except the fact that I am most likely going to LOVE it.

      I agree. I hate when trailers give away 3/4 of the plot.

    Agree. And I'm not scared of spoilers.
    
    I'm already sold, but this does nothing for me.

  The graphics look like Borderlands meets TF2. That pretty girl character seems to make the game, though. http://media.officialplaystationmagazine.co.uk/files/2011/10/BioshockCosplay1.jpg

    You're not going to fix this? Bad grammar in news publications is cool?

  This teaser strikes all the right chords (no pun intended). I'm really looking forward to playing this game!

  I agree, there was not much new shown in this trailer. It doesn't matter. It was just a reminder to gamers that this awesome thing is on the way.

  the game was finished in 2008. stop futzing around and release that antiquated piece of 70/100 so we all can buy it and feel all Duke Nukem Forever about it.
