So, I haven't seen this concept in a videogame trailer before and now there's 2.
Well, I think there is a connection.
Some of you will keep saying only the opening is similar.
Nope.
I see that as "only the cartoon genre and period it pays homage to are different"
And no one caught the thing with release dates at the end ?
Ubisoft certainly watched it and took inspiration. I have to say, though' I do like far cry 3 execution better.
Maybe, but that last bit just made you look come across as uninformed instead. >_>I think he is just trying to promote his game (which no one has heard of)
It's 80s establishment shots, then an 80s cartoon.
That's not very specific.

What if Nathan did.What? It's an 80's aesthetic. Done a great deal better than your trailer I might add. You did not invent the 80's.
What if Nathan did.
That might be the piece of the puzzle we're missing here.
Nathan invented the 80s as we know it and his company owns the exclusive rights to make trailers referencing things from that decade.
you kidding? it's a ripoff alright.
Blood Dragon was just too awesome but being a Ubisoft game there had to be something fishy...too bad it came from the advertising, I can't tell if I'll buy the game yet...but Ubi...
Hopefully he doesn't see that and go off on another rant >.>
Misogyny strikes again!
i think nathan executed that masterfully. gaf created thread, bit of PR probably just needs an article on kotaku.
So just to sort of ensure this serving of Humble Pie is comprehensive enough, heres a collection of faux 80's/90's style adverts:

Out of all of those, Super Time Force executes poorly on the concept in comparison because it doesnt keep the VHS distortion effects throughout and instead just switches to 1080p HD animation and dubstep. It all seems more like sour grapes of "someone else did it better than us " then any real "NOBODY HAS DONE THIS BEFORE!" sentiment because that'd be crazytown.
Oy. Im starting to wonder if it's getting to the point that twitter posts are a bad idea if you're a developer, as the risk of speaking too soo or too rash seems rather high these days.
Lots of gems from Capybara games. Their creative director apparently does much care for Bioshock Infinite.
FTFY. Gaf's a glass house to complain about someone complaining about a game.Is anyone in games happy anymore?
I can kinda see the similarities but nothing to get hurt over. Personally I think the STF trailer is more radical

Explain how. I want to see you type it out.I think it's pretty clear that the FarCry guys have been 'inspired' by the Capy video. I support the Capy guy.
It will still sell more than Super Hero Time Squad or whatever his game is called.Don't worry Nathan, Blood Dragon won't sell.

How exactly are you so sure of this? Me and many others are buying Super Time Force when it comes out... Probably not Blood Dragon though.
Not sure whether to laugh or cry.
MY wording was a little off. I mean I know many people will buy Super Time Force. I mean I probably won't buy Blood Dragon, don't know or care if others will.
Because I live in the real world where the DLC of a big budget FPS on multiple platforms almost always outsells indie games that even some hardcore gamers have not heard off.How exactly are you so sure of this?
