For Game Design I we were asked to choose our favorite game trailer. While it was difficult to choose one specifically I caved and went with Bioshock Infinite's Beasts of America trailer. And here's why it's one of my favorites:
- The trailer's editing along with the music choice is actually pretty cool. It creates a good thrill as the scenes cut more and the music picks up along with the action in the video.
- The trailer shows you enough scenes to give you a good idea of the world/environment you'll be playing in. In this case, instead of the underwater city of Rapture we're taken up into the skies with the floating cityscape of Columbia.
- The fight scenes shown are also great in that they showcase how you'll be moving around and going against your enemies in the environment. Infinite, like its predecessors, has taken to using the 1st person shooter mode. You also get a glimpse of some of the game's mechanics, weapons, and environment interaction.
- Also: SKYHOOK IN-GAME ACTION! Here you can see that the player will have the ability to move throughout the city in battle using an item called the Skyhook. Fighting against your enemies is going to be amazing with this in use and will create a great gaming experience.
- You get to see the awesome visual theme/graphics that are within the game. Columbia's 1900s-esque streets and areas are amazing visually and the characters are lively and colorful when they're not trying to kill you.
- The fact that the whole trailer shows mostly In-Game graphics and scenes is cool because you just really get to see beforehand what you'll be playing if you decide to go out and buy the game and play through it.
