Cutscene's

In this blog post I will be writing about cut scenes/trailers in games. One trailer that sticks out for me is the new Call of Duty Black Ops 2; Zombies trailer purely for the fact that I'm a massive zombies fan for the Call of Duty franchise. Watching this trailer give the viewer a sneak peak to what the new zombie’s mode will look like. It does this by giving quick scenes of game play footage. Also watching the trailer is gives the view hint that there will be new characters that you can control rather than the 4 default ones that where in the previous games for example Dempsey and Nikolai. Looking at the trailer the idea of zombies looks to have changed from past Call of Duty games where in the previous games you just had to grab guns and survive for as long as possible whereas in this mode it looks to be more of a campaign style of play rather than the usual zombie apocalypse that the 2 previous Call of Duty games have done with zombies. Looking at the new style of zombies, it looks quite interesting and unique and a change from the previous games which in my opinion is better and it freshens it up in a way.

Next I will talk about a cut-scene or trailer that I don't think is very good and/or just plain boring. I will be using a cut-scene from the game Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns of the Patriots purely for the fact that all their cut-scenes seem to run for ages, they seem to last for about 10 minutes or so. After you finish a part of a game you then have to sit through 15 minutes worth of cut-scene which will eventually lead onto the next part of the game. Don't get me wrong the graphics they use in the cut-scenes are amazing it's juts they last for ages and  you just want to play the game rather than watch that lengthy of a cut-scene.

If you click the video to the side you should be able to view one of the many cut-scenes that are quite lengthy..
