Two things went wrong this time. A) the tape was mislabeled as 360 footage so the editor thought he was comparing different things, and B) our editorial check on the video didn't go through the usual rigors, and failed to notice the mistake. When people check hundreds of videos a day, sometimes things slip through.
Obviously this is a huge issue, and we took it down as soon as we found out about it.
Never attribute to malice what you can instead attribute to a mistake. This was a simple oversight, and then spun by Kotaku into some sort of evil empire stunt.
I hope that clears things up some."

That is no more true than with the variety of discounts, bargains and absolute steals that are present in the latest Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale with the one running between 25th-31st May 2021 delivering the goods for Xbox 360, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S players.

The Humble Codemasters Racing ReBundle 2020 just launched today. It features games like F1 2019, Dirt Rally 2.0, GRID, and more.
This month’s Humble Choice features twelve games. The headliners for June are GRID Ultimate Edition, Supraland, and Hellblade Senua’s Sacrifice. New games are added to Humble Choice on the first Friday of every month.
Was surprised to see Hellblade again, they gave it away last year with Humble Monthly
the ps3 version looks and has better crash physics then
took them 2 days to make that statement?
Gametrailers has lost all credibility
i approved this, only to show how big of douchebags these guys are, they cant even cover their own arses validly
Then why have they made the mistake more than once. GT made errors with the comparison video of Burnout, and oblivion as well.
For all the haters of Gametriailers.com remember this:
Gametrailers.com is a affiliate of the 1up.com network.
1up.com = EGM magazine and Games For Windows.
1up is owned by Ziff Davis incorporated.
The company (Ziff Davis Media) announced that it had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on March 5, 2008.
In November 2006, Ziff Davis announced the cancellation of the Official Playstation Magazine. They cited a lack of interest in the magazine (and its demo disk) due to digital distribution. OPM had run since 1997.
Ziff Davis needs money, and where there is smoke there is fire. You do the math. If you are going to run and empire, there is always revenue besides advertizements.

On a side note, Game Trailers still provides some of the first High Definition footage of new games. They are not all that bad.
ever notice that when people get caught, they always make excuses... and it only took them 2 days to come up with one..lol
I wonder how many times we have had this little tape mix up problem at GT..., they make it sound like it happens quite often.
