Maybe We Should Just Call It Terminator: Salivation
Because despite being directing by Charlie’s Angels auteur McG, the Terminator: Salvation trailer looked pretty good, and now this Terminator: Salvation videogame trailer (from the VGA) looks pretty damned good too. Now, it’s shot in annoy-o-vision, making it hard to tell much of what’s going on, but it looks like some nice burned-out LA environments, some Halo-esque vehicle combat, and more. I’m not sure I’m mentally prepared to live in a world where there’s going to be a good Terminator game and a good Ghostbusters game. Seriously, if someone made a good Evil Dead game too, I might just die on the spot out of bliss.
